A procedure is presented in step by step form for designing and detailing a reinforced concrete frame building to the requirements of DZ4203 (Draft New Zealand loading code). Consideration is given for adequate ductility by means of a capacity design approach to all members to obtain a large number of plastic hinges which are detailed to dissipate energy without brittle failure. Further ductile detailing is given for all other locations where accidental hinges could occur and to limit excessive deflections that may result from deterioration of beam column joints.
