Gedung Kuliah Bersama was modified into ten floors, constructed using precast pretension slabs, namely hollow core slabs on the second to five floors and cast in situ slabs, namely steel deck on floors six to ten. Gedung Kuliah Bersama is located at the UPN “Veteran” East Java in the city of Surabaya. Geologically and tectonically, Surabaya City is in an active fault zone, so that the tectonic activity that occurs can cause damage to building structures and construction materials. Pushover analysis is an analysis that can be used to determine the pattern of structural collapse when an earthquake occurs. Based on the results of the analysis, precast pretension slabs (hollow core slabs) with segments of 1500 mm × 7000 mm × 150 mm with PC Wire reinforcement ϕ7-121 mm and cast in situ (steel deck) slabs with a thickness of 120 mm with wiremesh reinforcement M8-150 mm. The difference in the bending strength of the two types of slabs is 38.73%. The results of the pushover analysis show that the structural performance at the Damage Control (DO) level shows that the building is able to withstand the earthquake that occurs and the risk of casualties is very small.


This paper compares multistoried frame structures on plain ground and on hilly areas, first under the action of normal commercial loading and thereafter by considering the effect under the action of heavy loads. Behavior of multistoried frame buildings on plains are completely different from buildings which are constructed on hilly slopes. Buildings constructed on plain is simple and symmetrical, whereas the buildings that are constructed on hilly slopes are complex in geometry and asymmetrical in nature. Similarly, the behavior of commercial buildings with normal loading is distinctively different in comparison to special buildings such as Data centre buildings which are heavily loaded under gravity. Four different types of Symmetrical and Asymmetrical analytical Models are generated for five and ten storey buildings using "ETABS". Seismic evaluation of these models is done separately under the effect of normal and heavy loading by performing Nonlinear Pushover analysis
