Implication

Nonlinear pushover analysis indicates improved seismic performance for low-rise buildings, suggesting RUD guidelines can enhance structural resilience.

Key Points

The analysis shows that RUD guidelines support adequate seismic performance in low-rise buildings, given proper material quality.
Pushover analysis indicated maximum story drifts of 0.56% and 0.86% at peak ground acceleration of 0.40 g for three and four-storied buildings.
Nonlinear static analysis revealed that most hinge formations were at the Immediate Occupancy (IO) level, indicating good performance margins.
This study utilized finite element modelling to assess structural resilience of low-rise reinforced concrete structures under varying acceleration levels.
