The purpose of this study is to show findings on seismic capacity upgrading for steel moment resisting frames by controlling uncertain factors of member ductility. The new findings proposed in this study are as follows ; (1) The effect of the uncertainty in member ductility on aeismic reliability of steel frames. (2) The statistical information of the strength and ductility of structural steel members based on the experimental data. (3) The method to upgrade the seismic capacity of steel frames by controlling uncertain factors of member ductility.
