The present paper aims at evaluating the response of threedimensional buildings with inplan stiffness irregularities that have been subjected to twoway excitation ground motion records simultaneously. This study is broadlybased fragility assessment with greater emphasis on structural response at inplan flexible and stiff sides. To this end, three type of threedimensional 5story steel building structures with stiffness eccentricities, were subjected to extensive nonlinear incremental dynamic analyses (IDA) utilizing IbarraKrawinkler deterioration models. Fragility assessment was implemented for different configurations of braces to investigate the losses in buildings with center of resisting (CR) eccentricities.
