Abstract
Two distinct aspects of Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures under seismic load are studied. Localized deterioration of multi-storey objects at intermediate levels is analyzed and the effect of non-smooth transition in stiffness on the first vibration mode is pointed at. Further, that a general collapse of a building can be avoided by more ductile joints. The application of a special plastic (3P-RESIN®) is shown.
