%X Most of industrial buildings are prefabricated structures and built on high seismic risk zones. Prefabricated buildings must be earthquake resistant which can be possible if structural elements and their connections are properly built. In recent years, prefabricated buildings which have no RC walls were damaged heavily during earthquakes. In this paper, prefabricated industrial structures, damaged during Ceyhan (1998), Kocaeli (1999) and D¨¹zce (1999) earthquakes, and reasons of structural damages are studied. Additionally design and construction precautions are given for building an earthquake resistant prefabricated structure.
