Dynamic response of a structure corresponding to a novel event such as, a seismic action can be used for identifying potential damage in the structure due to the event. After an earthquake, it is necessary to assess the damage state of a structure so that appropriate rehabilitation decision can be taken. This paper focuses on seismic damage assessment of building structures constructed in hilly areas. The buildings in these areas are usually not symmetrical in plan, and have vertical setbacks because of the features of the terrain which makes them particularly vulnerable to seismic forces. This type of buildings is referred to as step-back buildings. In this paper, a method for identification of seismic damage to step-back buildings using floor acceleration response records has been developed. A five-story step-back reinforced concrete framed building is considered for the study and the proposed method is shown to be feasible and computationally efficient.
