Hello, I wonder if I made a mistake in the modeling? Column reinforcements are increasing on the upper floors.

Column Reinforcements Increase in Upper Floors

Hello, What caught my eye: - You have chosen the ductility level as normal, but the R coefficient appears to be 7. - By choosing a semi-rigid diaphragm in the analysis, analysis together with the flooring is more appropriate. - There are columns that do not save axial capacity, their dimensions should be increased. - It is important to have curtains in both directions in hollow blocks. Curtains should also be added in the Y direction. - Concrete strength of C30 helps with column dimensions. In addition, this 7-storey building has columns that exceed the required - Stapling strength. Foundation thickness should be increased or column dimensions can be adjusted.

Hi, 1. Your system is weak in general. 2. When the normal force decreases in the upper floors, the column capacity decreases. 3. Due to the basement perimeter curtain, there may be more reinforcement on an upper floor. Because basement curtains share column effects on a lower floor. As an additional note, you have selected the "TDY 1975 equivalent earthquake load method" analysis option in the analysis settings.
