Abstract
Today, the use of high strength concrete in large projects around the world has become very common. It is almost impossible to build the world's largest and tallest structures without using high strength concrete technology. On the other hand, due to the wide range of concrete structures in our country, the regulations for the design of concrete structures do not mention the effects of concrete strength on the dynamic performance of the structure; Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the seismic performance of concrete structure with common and high strength concrete by using nonlinear dynamic time history analysis, so that the effect of parameters such as roof displacement, base shear, and axial force of the columns is compared. Therefore, at first, 2-storey concrete moment frame structure with intermediate ductility was designed in three-dimensional mode, according to the available regulations, then the real details were modeled in ABAQUS software. In order to perform nonlinear analysis, nonlinear model is used for structural elements and seismic analysis of the system is performed using three near-fault pairs of accelograms. The results show that increasing the strength of the concrete increasing the base shear as well as the stiffness of the stories, and the axial force values of the columns is almost ineffective.
