Abstract

This paper presents several seismic simulations for different types of structures located in different seismic zones in Romania. These simulations are very important because the designers can see in real time, which is the behavior of a designed construction, what are the movements (displacement and deformations) and the extent to which these movements may occur. The behavior of constructions under the action of horizontal seismic forces is analyzed in an automatic computing program for structures program that models the designed structure introduced into a spatial framework x, y, and z. The obtained results are given in displacement diagrams, thus presenting a global situation of the analyzed structure.
