The method of capacity design requires the ductility of reinforced concrete load-bearing elements and provides the beam plasticity mechanism for a structure to absorb a significant seismic energy. Indeterminate static systems are particularly suitable, where an indefinite number of static indeter­minacy determines the number of plastic hinges being forming, thus achieving favourable energy dissipation. In this paper, reinforced concrete five-storey frame is designed for two ductility classes according to the regulations EN1992-1-1 and EN1998-1.
