Non-structural elements of a building are often not considered in structural analysis. Therefore, due attention is not paid to them during the design process of the building. However, non-structural elements are exposed to seismic forces and therefore they are exposed to damage and failures that have psychological and economic consequences in some critical and vital structures during seismic events. Depending on the type of building the total cost of non-structural elements and the ratio of the project cost are many times higher than the cost of structural elements. In this study, the equivalent earthquake load was investigated within the scope of the design principles of non-structural building elements under the effect of the earthquake defined in Turkish Building Earthquake Code 2018.
