Abstract
This paper presents an assessment of the seismic performance of a ductile concrete core wall used as a seismic force resisting system for a 12-storey concrete office building in Montréal, designed according to the 2005 National building code of Canada (NBCC) and the 2004 Canadian Standards Association standard A23.3. The core wall consists of a cantilever wall system in one direction and a coupled wall system in the orthogonal direction. The building is analyzed in the nonlinear regime. The main conclusion from this work is that the capacity design shear envelope for the studied wall structure largely underestimates that predicted, primarily in the cantilever wall direction, and this in turn significantly increases the risk of shear failure. This issue is essentially due to (i) an underestimation by the new NBCC spectral response acceleration of the higher mode responses of a reinforced concrete wall structure whose seismic response is dominated by higher modes; and (ii) a deficiency in the capacity design method in estimating the wall shear demand on such walls, even when their behavior is lightly inelastic.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
