Abstract

This master thesis is about finite element analyses of a 3D model of a 1/4th scaled trapezoidal 3-story reinforced concrete mock-up on a shaking table which is part of Smart 2013 international benchmark. The idea of this benchmark is to asses and predict the dynamic behavior of the reinforced concrete mock-up with respect to seismic loading using finite element method software. In this master thesis, the finite element method software Diana is used to asses and predict the dynamic behavior of the scaled mock-up with respect to seismic loading.
