2 Ultmate lmt states Fundamental reurements (lfe safety and damage lmtaton) are verfed by checkng the structure for two lmt states: Ultmate Lmt State (ULS) assocated to collapse and other forms of structural degradaton that may endanger human lves verfcaton of ULS mples a balance between strength and ductlty Servceablty Lmt State (SLS) assocated to degradatons, that lead to lmtaton of use lmtaton of structural and non-structural damage generally, check for SLS nvolves lmtaton of nterstorey drfts, n order to protect non-structural elements, eupments, etc. Sesmc acton: elastc response spectrum atonal terrtory: dvded n zones of constant sesmc hazard Sesmc hazard for desgn s expressed by horzontal peak ground acceleraton a g (determned for the return perod assocated to ULS)
