Abstract:
Algeria is a high seismic risk zone. The construction regulations establish design and calculation rules in seismic zones to minimize risks and damage during strong or moderate ground motion. These regulations were used to carry out a detailed study of reinforced concrete building for residential use, composed of ground plus five storeys, located in Khemis El Khchena. The project aim to calculate the different bearing elements of this building and verify it’s global stability while considering the recommendations of BAEL91 modified in 99 and CBA93 as well as RPA99ver.2003. Additionally, the study investigate the results of the pounding of adjacent buildings and the various parameters influencing this phenomenon.
