| dc.description.abstract | This study evaluate the capacity of a
10-story existing building designed in 1972 to
determine its capacity to resist new loads according
with present codes. A structural model was
developed using a modern engineering software
and existing new codes loads were applied. After
entering all data into the model and running the
software, columns, shear wall punching shear and
story drift were evaluated according with the output
and compared with present building codes. As
expected, some structural elements presented
inadequate design and possible failure.
Recommendations to increase the elements’
capacity for structure stability are provided.
