Abstract
Seismic design has undergone a remarkable development during the past decades. A simple approach may be established using equivalent static load method. A more elaborate modelling may be achieved by a dynamic time history analysis to improve the judgment on structures behavior during earthquakes. A parametric study was conducted for different (RC) structures. These structures were firstly designed according to the (IBC) code requirements, and then were evaluated using performance based method by subjecting them to earthquake ground motions to come up with conclusions to be taken into consideration during the design process
