Abstract

Ductility is an essential attribute of a structure that must respond to strong ground motions. Ductility serves as the shock absorber in a building, as it reduces the transmitted force to one that is sustainable. The resultant sustainable force traditionally used to design a hypothetically elastic representation of the building. Therefore, the survivability of a structure under strong seismic actions relies on the capacity to deform beyond the elastic range, and to dissipate seismic energy through plastic deformations. So, the ductility check is related to the control of whether the structure is able to dissipate the given quantity of seismic energy considered  in  structural analysis or  not.
