The strong-column weak-beam design ratio plays a crucial rule to design the structures particularly for high seismic region. Interestingly, the ratio to be used is still under spotlight for research. Observations and analytical studies have demonstrated that the ratio's effectiveness varies with some parameters. One of these parameters is the number of stories in a building. The failure mechanism of the structures depends on this ratio and the design ratio efficiency seems to change as building's stories increases. This efficiency also seem to saturate at a point depending on number of stories. In this study, three case studies have been assessed and analyzed. Each case study contains three reinforced concrete frames with different strong-column weak-beam design ratios that varies from 1.2 to 3.0. For each case study, the design ratios are ranged into three parts: (i) ratios between 1.2 to 1.5; (ii) ratios between 1.5 to 2.0; (iii) ratios between 2.0 to 3.0. The Turkish Earthquake Regulation (2018) has been utilized for the design procedures. The pushover and time-history analysis of frames were performed using OpenSees software framework (McKenna et al., 2010). Columns have been modeled with fiber sections and the beams have been modeled with concentrated rotational springs at the ends. Both members are accepted to be linear in between. The plastic hinge occurrence at the end of members were monitored to observe the frames' failure mechanism.
