Taiwan is located in circum-Pacific seismic belt, often under the threat of earthquake. Seismic prospecting results from the 921 earthquake, parts of the school buildings structural seismic resistant capacity are worthy of consideration. Most school buildings’ have a link to other buildings , all single buildings for seismic capacity analysis, as well as the seismic capability is not enough and do not meet the requirements of the existing seismic design specifications. First several simple frame cases were used to analyze the ultimate load of structure, load-displacement curve, formation of plastic hinge, difference between the axial force, shear force and bending moment by different computer program. Then, the base shear capacity and seismic resistant capacity of school building were compared based on the actual size of each member, material properties and section of steel reinforcement. Simulations were carried out with different assumptions. The research result can serve as a reference for school buildings’ structural seismic resistant capacity in the future.
