Abstract – The paper aims to present the way in which reinforced concrete structures are addressed in the seismic design codes P100-1/2006 and P100-1/2013. Comparing the two editions requires a detailed analysis of their provisions, with a focus on identifying the main similarities and differences.
The main objective is to highlight the evolution of the seismic design code, through the comparative evaluation of the two editions, using linear seismic analyses applied to the proposed reference structures. This approach allows capturing the conceptual and methodological changes introduced in the more recent version. The topic is relevant because it illustrates how the seismic performance criteria were formulated and developed over time within the codes P100-1/2006 and P100-1/2013.

Keywords – linear seismic assessment, reinforced concrete structures, seismic performance requirements, structural response.
