Target Performance

Dictated by codes (DBYBHY 2007, Section 1.2.1):

“....The objective of seismic resistant design is

to have

no structural/nonstructural damage

in low magnitude earthquakes,

limited and

repairable damage

in moderate earthquakes

• Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure

- Assume global ductility (R

)

- Detail accordingly

• Modal Superposition Procedure

- Include higher mode effects

• Time History Analysis

- Rarely used

Critique of Current Practice

Advantages :

- Simple to use

- Have proven to work

- Became a tradition all over the world

- Uncertainty is lumped and easier to deal with

Disadvantages :

- No clear connection between capacity and demand

- No option for interfering with the target performance

- No possibility of having the owner involved in the decision

process

- Not easily applicable to seismic assessment of existing

structures

(5)

DBYBHY 2007 (Chapter 7)

-

Evaluation and Strengthening of Existing Buildings

is based on structural performances.

- Steps:

• Collect information from an existing structure

• Assess whether info is dependable and penalize accordingly

• Conduct structural analysis

- Linear static analysis

- Nonlinear static analysis (

Pushover analysis

)

- Incremental pushover analysis

- Time history analysis

• Identify for each member the damage level

(6)

Time History?

- Actual earthquake response is hard to predict anyways.

- Closest estimate can be found using inelastic time-history analysis.

- Difficulties with inelastic time history analysis:

- Suitable set of ground motion (Description of demand)

- hysteretic behavior models (Description of capacity)

- Computation time (Time)

- Post processing (Time and understanding)

Alternative approach is pushover analysis.

Pushover Analysis

• Definition: Inelastic static analysis of a

structure using a specified (constant or

variable) force pattern from zero load to a

prescribed ultimate displacement.

• Use of it dates back to 1960s to1970s to

investigate stability of steel frames.

• Many computer programs were developed

(8)

Available Computer Programs

• Design Oriented:

SAP 2000, GTSTRUDL, RAM etc.

• Research Oriented:

Opensees, IDARC, SeismoStrut etc.

What is different?

• User interface capabilities

• Analysis options

(9)

Section Damage Levels

Damage levels are established based on concrete outermost

compressive fiber strain and steel strain (for nonlinear analysis

procedure).

(10)

Section Damage Levels

How should these values be decided?

- Construction practice

- Experience of engineers

Steps of Pushover Analysis:

A Simple Incremental Procedure

1. Build a computational model of the structure

(17)

Steps of Pushover Analysis

2. Define member behavior

Beams: Moment-rotation relations

Columns: Moment-rotation and Interaction Diagrams

Beam-column joints: Assume rigid (DBYBHY 2007 )

Walls: Model as beam columns but introduce a shear

spring to model shear deformations

(18)

Steps of Pushover Analysis

3. Apply gravity loads

1.0 G + n Q

n=0.3 (live load reduction factor)

(if the interaction diagrams will not be used a good

estimate of the moment capacity of column hinges

needs to be made)

Possibilities:

-

Based on initial gravity load analysis

-

Based on a beam hinging mechanism

-

Based on elastic lateral force analysis with an

assumed reasonable R

a

value.

(19)

Steps of Pushover Analysis

4. Specify a Lateral Load Profile:

(Inverted triangular, constant, first mode shape are some of the

possibilities)

It is a good idea to have a spreadsheet page ready

indicating all members, current load increment

5. Lateral Load Incrementing:

Step 1:

Elastic analysis is valid up to the formation of the first hinge,

i.e. when the first critical location reaches its moment

capacity.

• Find the lateral loads that cause first hinge formation (V

1

).

(20)

Steps of Pushover Analysis

Step 2:

Beyond Step 1, yielded

element’s critical location cannot

take any further moment. Therefore place an actual

hinge at that location. Conduct an analysis increment for

this modified structure.

This load increment should be

selected such that upon summing the force resultant

from this incremental step and previous step, second

hinge formation is reached.

incremental analysis steps are conducted for systems

with more hinges. Results are added to those from the

Steps of Pushover Analysis

Step n:

Sufficient number of plastic hinges have formed and

system has reached a plastic mechanism. Note that this

could be a partial collapse mechanism as well. Beyond

this point system rotates as a rigid body.

Concluding Remarks

• Nonlinear analysis is becoming a part of

the profession

• It gives us information on displacements

which are indicators of damage

• Never forget that estimating deformations

is harder compared to estimating strength

• Never replace engineering judgment with
