Effect of Asymmetric Infills on Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings

This dataset stores the supporting data for the manuscript titled \"Effect of Asymmetric Infills on Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings\". The manuscript is under review in the Journal of Earthquake Engineering. Abstract: \"The torsion due to asymmetric placement of unreinforced masonry (URM) infills is often unnoticed because the stiffness and strength of the infills are usually ignored during design. This study estimates the effect of asymmetric placement of infills on the performance of 8-story reinforced concrete (RC) buildings designed for different code levels. Multiple stripe analysis (MSA) is used to assess the performance. The adverse effects of the infills generally overshadow the torsion introduced by the asymmetric layout, leading to consistently poor performance in buildings with more infilled frames. At higher intensities, most of the eccentricity is lost due to infill damage.\"
