What is the actual equivalent of the earthquake occurring in the analysis?

Hello Friends, We can solve the reinforced concrete static project designed in accordance with the regulation in a short time by using the program feature. We save time and maybe minimize the margin of error by relying on software data. During his university years, the static project of a 6-storey building took 427 A4 pages and 3 months. Now I can solve it in 2 hours. BUT, during this time, many parameters seem to be missing and our decision-making options and our self-confidence seem to disappear. Actually, what I want to ask is the earthquake analysis detail. Is there a real intensity of the earthquake in the earthquake analysis system applied by the program? What is the actual equivalent of the earthquake occurring in the analysis? Greetings

DD-2 is an earthquake with a ten percent probability of occurring in 475 years. The issue of earthquake magnitude is a bit complicated, it is difficult to say anything clearly, but I remember that calculations were made for an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.0. But if there is an earthquake of 7 or more, we need to take measures to minimize the loss of life and comply with the provisions of the regulation in this regard.

We were using some graphs while calculating the equivalent earthquake load. In fact, it is impossible for us to predict the movement of an earthquake, we can only calculate the values of the possible accelerations with statistical science. Whether we do calculations manually or use a computer program, we affect a ground acceleration and the force originating from this ground acceleration, taking into account the accelerations that occur as a result of these statistical data. As a result, I think it would not be correct to say that the DD2 earthquake was an earthquake with a magnitude of 10. Of course the guys on the forum can explain this much better. In fact, the programs only help us with the account work. you do not calculate how much reinforcement is required for a beam or you do not control the slab thickness one by one. the program does this for you, leaving you much more time to interpret the build behavior. Moreover, if you want to calculate a curtain manually, it may take you more than 3 months. In short, it's the building behavior that matters.
