The present paper deals with the analytical investigation of representative planar masonry-infilled reinforced concrete (MIRC) frames for seismic fragility, performance and demand. The study includes the effect of various patterns of layout for infills panels along the height of reinforced concrete frames. The analytical investigation has been done using non-linear dynamic time-history analysis under collection of forty SAC near-field ground motions using rational hysteretic models for structural components; the results are presented in terms of parameters such as peak inter-storey drift, residual drift and damage index. The outcomes of study are used to develop seismic fragility curves in probabilistic terms for the generic medium-rise MIRC frames. The developed fragility curves can be useful tools in predicting the life and economic losses in the future seismic event. In the current study, efforts are also made to develop curves demonstrating seismic performance and seismic demand for representative MIRC frames.
