ABSTRACT
Circular architecture employs innovative building techniques that are easily disassembled, repurposed, or reused once their useful life has gone. This paper focuses on a reusable design case study method to seismic frame structure design, which is widely utilized in New Zealand for steel frame structures. The research provided a reusable, optimized design for the complete seismic frame. This study describes shear strength optimization. When the welded construction parameters are optimized for weight or cost, the weight of the steel utilized is lowered. This weight decrease is instantly connected with a reduction in environmental impact, as the environmental impact is directly proportionate to the structure’s weight.
