The inelastic response of 10 story steel frames designed according to the Japanese Building Standard Law was carried out. when subjected to strong ground motion. In the analysis, the elasto-plastic property of each column or beam was taken into account. The parameters of the analysis were the column/beam strength ratio (strong column/weak beam, or inverse) and the vertical distribution of each member's plastic moment capacity. Using the results of the analysis, the yielding property of steel frames and the stability of response values were examined.
