Seismic activity poses significant risks to buildings and infrastructure in high-risk areas. Constructing buildings that can withstand the destructive forces of earthquakes is essential for ensuring the safety of occupants and minimizing property damage. Seismic resistant steel structures have emerged as a reliable solution for constructing buildings that can withstand seismic forces. This article explores the importance of seismic resistance, the characteristics of steel that make it suitable for seismic applications and the various design strategies employed to create safe and resilient steel structures in high-risk areas. Seismic forces, generated by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, can cause severe shaking, ground displacement and structural failure. The magnitude of seismic forces is determined by factors such as the intensity of the earthquake, the proximity to the epicenter and the characteristics of the soil. It is crucial to understand these forces to design buildings that can effectively resist and dissipate seismic energy.
