Turkey, which is one of the countries with high seismic risk, has made significant changes in both seismic risk maps and seismic design codes over time by adapting to these developments. Information about the important changes in the last two earthquake maps and provisions in Turkey was given and the effects of these changes on structural and seismic parameters were examined in this study. In order to make comparisons of seismic parameters, seven different settlements from seven different geographical regions in Turkey were taken into account which have the same seismic risk in the previous earthquake risk map. Seismic moments were also calculated separately for these locations to describe the intensity of future tectonic activity. With the current earthquake hazard map, geographical location-specific earthquake risk has been started to be used instead of regional risk. For the selected settlements with the same seismic risk in the previous map, the seismic risks were found high in some and low in some with the current hazard map. In addition, structural analyses were carried out for the sample reinforced-concrete building with the same structural characteristics in these seven different settlements in order to reveal the effect of the code and map change on the structural analysis. While the target displacements expected from the structures for the settlements with the same seismic risk take the same values, the target displacements are obtained differently for each, since the specific design spectrum is used for each location with the current map.
