Seismic System Height Limits

From my limited knowledge, what I understand is that height limits specified in ASCE code are largely based on post earthquake observation of the performance of similar structures rather than any specialized testing of different SFRS.
I recommend you to read this article by structure magazine to improve your perception on the height limits imposed by ASCE.
