24 Conclusions The seismic behavior of 2D structural models was compared to that of 3D models. 2D models were found not to be able to capture various mode shapes and maximum displacement and acceleration responses. Effects of building asymmetry was considered in seismic response assessment of building and nonstructural components. The more asymmetry in buildings, the higher dispersion of seismic responses due to the larger number of mode shapes. The flexibility of building floor was found critical for seismic response evaluation of nonstructural components restrained on floor. Floor flexibility affects all acceleration components. The amplification factor for the floor acceleration should be investigated for the simplified design and analysis. A larger number of simulations are needed to assess the degree of correlation among the failure probabilities of components located at different areas of a building. 24
