Improving Performance of Buildings in Very High-Seismic Regions Volume 2 – Supporting Resources (FEMA P-2343)

Improving Performance of Buildings in Very High-Seismic Regions is a report prepared by the Applied Technology Council for FEMA. It focuses on enhancing the structural strength and resilience of buildings in regions with very high seismic activity. The report covers aspects such as overstrength of different building materials, collapse surface development, numerical studies of different types of buildings, and collapse performance evaluation based on seismic design categories and ground motion effects.
