Fires following earthquakes are considered one major threat in seismic regions. In fact, according to modern seismic codes, ordinary structures are designed to suffer damage to some extent during strong earthquakes, exploiting the structure own ductility to avoid collapse and safeguard human lives.
A solution technique based on the sequential linear programming (SLP) method is presented for the optimum design of braced and unbraced steel frames in seismic regions. First, the optimum rigidity distribution of the frames under static loading is computed, then the optimization procedure is repeate
