Abstract :In this study, we present the effect of various negativity parameters on steel structures that cause post-earthquake damage based on performance-based assessment. In accordance with this purpose, eigenvalue and pushover analysis are carried out for different negativity parameters such as number of story, soft story, short column, hill-slope effect and irregularity in plan for a sample steel structure in this study. Structural models were created over the reference building to cover each negativity parameter within the scope of this study. Natural vibration period, base shear force, target displacements for damage estimation and stiffness values are obtained for each structural model separately. The comparisons with the reference building model results are made. The effect to behaviour of structures is determined and a reduction coefficient is proposed, for each negativity parameter, respectively. The proposed coefficients can be used to determine the risk priority in steel structures. It was concluded that each negativity parameter considered in this study reduces the behaviour of the building under the effect of earthquakes.Keywords : steel, soft story, irregularity in plan, short coulmn, hill-slope effect, pushover, eigenvalue
