The present study aims at evaluating the structural performance of high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures under seismic actions including the time dependent behaviors. For this purpose, two tasks were raised ; one is the evaluation of long term behaviors of framed RC structures with 60 stories and other is pushover analysis of full-scale RC framed building with 20 stories considering the initial stresses arose from the time dependent behaviors. Consequently, the research goal was almost accomplished for both the tasks. Particularly, the latter task indicated that the newly formed plastic hinges due to the initial stresses at the lower and middle floors affect the different limit states. Thus, the effect of time dependent characteristics of high-rise RC buildings, which may not be included in the current design, may be highly important in the seismic design.
