Seismic Design Of Structures

A new performance-based plastic design procedure for steel moment frames is presented in this paper. The role of plastic analysis in seismic design of structures is illustrated. The ultimate design base shear for plastic analysis is derived by using the input energy from the design pseudo-velocity spectrum, a pre-selected yield mechanism, and an ultimate target drift. The proposed design procedure eliminates the need for a drift check after the structure is designed for strength as is done in the current design practice. Also, there is no need for response modification factors since the load deformation characteristics of the structure, including ductility and post-yield behavior, are explicitly used in calculating the design forces. The results of nonlinear static and nonlinear dynamic analyses of an example steel moment frame designed by the proposed method are presented and discussed. The implications of the new design procedure for future generation of seismic design codes are also discussed.

Performance-based seismic design (PBSD) method has been widely recognized in recent years, it can be used for the future structural design. And the direct displacement-based design method (DDBD) is one of the most effective ways to implement the performance-based seismic design (PBSD) theory in current. In this paper, aiming to the composite frame consisting of composite beams and continuous compound spiral hoop reinforced concrete columns (CCSHRCS), its DDBD flowchart is presented, and the structure identified performance objectives in the preliminary design process and specific seismic performance assessment methods are given. Finally, through the calculation results of CCSHRCS frame case that demonstrated the reasonableness of the method. It provides an effective tool for the seismic design of CCSHRCS frame structures

Displacement Based

One of the major developments in seismic design over the past 10 years has been increased emphasis on limit states design, now generally termed Performance Based Engineering. Three techniques - the capacity spectrum approach, the N2 method and direct displacement-based design have now matured to the stage where seismic assessment of existing structures, or design of new structures can be carried out to ensure that particular deformation-based criteria are met. The paper will outline and compare the three methods, and discuss them in the context of traditional force-based seismic design and earlier design approaches which contained some elements of performance based design. Factors defining different performance states will be discussed, including the need, not yet achieved, to include residual displacement as a key performance limit. Some emphasis will be placed on soil-related problems, and the incorporation of soil/structure interaction into performance-based design. It will be shown that this is relatively straightforward and results in consistent design solutions not readily available with force-based designs using force-reduction factors.

This paper presents a direct displacement design (DDD) procedure that can be used for seismic design of multistory wood-framed structures. The proposed procedure is applicable to any pure shear deforming system. The design procedure is a promising design tool for performance-based seismic design since it allows consideration of multiple performance objectives (e.g., damage limitation, safety requirements) without requiring the engineer to perform a complex finite element or nonlinear time-history analysis of the complete structure. A simple procedure based on normalized modal analysis is used to convert the code-specified acceleration response spectrum into a set of interstory drift spectra. These spectra can be used to determine the minimum stiffness required for each floor based on the drift limit requirements. Specific shear walls can then be directly selected from a database of backbone curves. The procedure is illustrated on the design of two three-story ATC-63 archetype buildings, and the results are validated using nonlinear time-history analysis.
