SHEAR DEMAND CALCULATED WITH EARTHQUAKERECORDS, BY NON-LINEAR ANALYSIS4.1 Time History AnalysisIn this study, two Chilean March 3, 1985 earthquake records, Viña del Mar (0.35 g)and Llolleo (0.67 g) were chosen to estimate the possible demands. The faultmechanism <strong>of</strong> the expected seismic action at the site and its epicentral distance aresimilar to the ones that generated the selected records. In the vulnerability study <strong>of</strong> thebuilding, a maximum acceleration <strong>of</strong> 0.55 g was estimated [1]. This value was used toscaled Viña del Mar S20W records to 055g. In the analysis, because the columns <strong>of</strong>436
