Modern bamboo structural system is a new type of green sustainable building technology, conform with our country’s requirements of developing environment-protecting and energy-saving buildings. This paper presents a new lightweight, high-strength , earthquake-resistant and energy-saving system-steel-bamboo composite structural systems , and given the various structural elements of the composite structural systems of steel-bamboo production methods . This paper also gives the production methods of steel-bamboo composite elements. Steel-bamboo-structural system can per-fectly combine steel and bamboo to bear load together, and it have excellent mechanical properties and broad application prospects.

The consideration of environmental losses in seismic design is discussed within the framework of cost optimization analysis. Within this context, the equivalent carbon emissions (CO2-e) are used as a proxy for the environmental cost related to seismic damage, and a model to assess the environmental cost in seismic loss estimation is introduced. The use of the model is illustrated through its application to the analysis of simple earthquake-resistant structural systems. It is concluded that under certain circumstances, the consideration of environmental issues in seismic design may be important, especially as the planning time horizon of the facility increases.

In the preceding article, I reviewed two seismic design codes of the Building Standard Law of Japan, revised in 1981 and 2000, with the transition of Japanese seismic design codes. Having read the 1974 review by Dr. Makoto Watabe, I was most impressed by his comprehensive understanding of seismic structural systems for buildings – an understanding that is fresh even today, more than 3 decades later. He moves from the basic principles for seismic building design to earthquake-resistant properties of building. The general seismic design principles of buildings he has reviewed are very sound and introduced both in current seismic design codes I have reviewed and the seismic design of super high-rise buildings over 60 m high.

Building systems fabricated with cold-formed steel (CFS) profiles and members made of wood, gypsum, or other materials allow solving a range of issues arising in common constructional elements thanks to their advantages, such as lightness, strength, durability, physical stability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. As a result of this inherent competitiveness of CFS based buildings, their use has been gradually increasing in recent years both in the field of structural systems as non-structural architectural components and, above all, in the area of earthquake resistant buildings, where lightness play a key role. After a general introduction, the paper gives an overview of the current codification and ongoing research on CFS non-structural architectural and structural systems. Finally, the main conclusions are summarised, and possible future developments are outlined.

ABSTRACTMoment Resisting Frame System (SRPM) is one of the earthquake resistant structural systems that is often used in Indonesia. SRPM is classified into three types are Ordinary Moment Resisting Frame System (SRPMB), Intermediate Moment Resisting Frame System (SRPMM), and Special Moment Resisting Frame System (SRPMK). In this final project, the structure of the building is modeled with SRPMM and SRPMK in areas with high seismicity (Seismic Design Category D) in the city of Yogyakarta, then compared the behavior of the structure between the two models. The result of this research is SRPMM which its purpose for medium earthquake area, can still give good performance which is indicated by fulfillment of design requirement, performance when performance point is in Immadiate Occupancy condition up to Life Safe, and give good ductility value when Collapse occurred.Keywords: intermediate moment resisting frame system, special moment resisting frame system, performance point, ductilityABSTRAKSistem Rangka Pemikul Momen (SRPM) adalah salah satu sistem struktur penahan gempa yang sering digunakan di Indonesia. SRPM dibagi menjadi tiga jenis yaitu Sistem Rangka Pemikul Momen Biasa (SRPMB), Sistem Rangka Pemikul Momen Menengah (SRPMM), dan Sistem Rangka Pemikul Momen Khusus (SRPMK). Dalam tugas akhir ini struktur gedung dimodelkan dengan SRPMM dan SRPMK pada wilayah dengan tingkat kegempaan tinggi (Kategori Desain Seismik D) dikota Yogyakarta, kemudian dibandingkan perilaku struktur antara kedua model tersebut. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah SRPMM yang peruntukannya untuk wilayah gempa sedang, tetap dapat memberikan kinerja cukup baik yang ditunjukkan dengan terpenuhinya persyaratan-persyaratan desain, kinerja pada saat performance point berada pada kondisi Immadiate Occupancy sampai dengan Life Safe, serta memberikan nilai daktilitas yang baik ketika terjadi keruntuhan.Kata kunci: SRPMM, SRPMK, performance point, daktilitas.
