Abstract

An earthquake is a rapid movement of geological components under the earth's surface that causes tectonic plate boundaries to shake violently. Various damages have happened due to the earthquake, which has led to a devastating impact on humans in terms of finances, safety, and health. Nowadays, most existing buildings are designed under British Standards, and the earthquake element is not taken into account. This issue should be addressed because if the building collapsed, many lives would be lost, especially in buildings with a large number of occupants. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the performance level of Kolej Kediaman Tun Mustapha and Staff quarters SMK Desa Wawasan using a simulation of various PGA values, which include 0.145g, 0.097g, and 0.048g. There were two (2) objectives that needed to be achieved in this study: (1) to examine the structural deformation of the buildings by using computer software, which is PROTA STRUCTURE, and (2) to determine the safety status of the building based on the standard FEMA 356 (2000). Based on the lateral displacement generated from the software analysis, the value of displacements for both buildings on the x and y-axis increased with storey height increases. Meanwhile, based on the interstorey drift ratio (IDR) values for both buildings, it can be concluded that all the buildings were categorized as Immediate Occupancy (IO) under the standard of FEMA 356 (2000).
