Each seismic mitigation design for the structure influence its life cycle cost that includes the construction cost and repairing cost after earthquake damage. It is necessary to perform a cost assessment for each seismic mitigation design to know the effective design on the building life cycle cost. The methodology followed in this study provides initial guidelines to assess the cost associated with using a variety of design methods for reinforced concrete structures, developing a performance based analysis to get the weakness points in the structure after earthquake, select the retrofitting strategies that would be indicated to repair the structure after the earthquake, and to assess the results founded from each design method or different design codes UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
