Özet: The new building earthquake regulation of Turkey has been published on 18 March 2018. There are two different methods in the new code: Linear and nonlinear earthquake analysis methods. In the present study, the different structural applications of a school project located in Gaziantep province of Turkey analyzed by using linear earthquake calculation methods. The structure has modeled with three different ways; only with Reinforced Concrete columns, with Reinforced Concrete columns and Shear Walls, only with Shear Walls. In analysis, 2007 regulation on buildings in earthquake zones are compared with the new Turkish 2018 earthquake code. The software SAP 2000 is used for the calculations and program outcomes are used for comparisons. Base shear forces, maximum displacement and force values and overturning moment findings are calculated in each structural configuration. The advantages and disadvantages of the new earthquake code are discussed in detail using earthquake analysis results.
