Elghazouli 1 Introduction Although seismic design has bene?ted from substantial developments in recent years, the need to offer practical and relatively unsophisticated design procedures inevitably results in various simpli?cations and idealisations. These assumptions can, in some cases, have advert implications on the expected seismic performance and hence on the rationale and reliabil- ity of the design approaches. It is therefore imperative that design concepts and application rules are constantly appraised and revised in light of recent research ?ndings and improvedunderstanding of seismic behaviour. To this end, this paper focuses on assessing the under- lying approaches and main procedures adopted in the seismic design of steel frames, with emphasis on European design provisions. In accordance with current seismic design practice, which in Europe is represented by Eurocode 8 (EC8) (2004), structures may be designed according to either non-dissipative or dissipative behaviour. The former, through which the structure is dimensioned to respond largely in the elastic range, is normally limited to areas of low seismicity or to structures of special use and importance. Otherwise, codes aim to achieve economical design by employ- ing dissipative behaviour in which considerable inelastic deformations can be accommodated under significant seismic events. In the case of irregular or complex structures, detailed non- linear dynamic analysis may be necessary. However, dissipative design of regular structures is usually performed by assigning a structural behaviour factor (i.e. force reduction or modi?ca- tion factor) which is used to reduce the code-speci?ed forces resulting from idealised elastic response spectra. This is carried out in conjunction with the capacity design concept which requires an appropriate determination of
