Seismic Response of Building Structures with Sliding Non-structural Elements
Interaction between a structure under base excitation and heavy non-structural elements that it supports is significant in the seismic analysis and design of the structure. Heavy non-structural elements may slide/rock under base excitation, and this dynamic action affects the seismic behavior of the supporting structure. Hence, in this study, a numerical model was presented to describe the seis...
متن کاملAN EFFICIENT METHOD FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OF FUSED BUILDING STRUCTURES
A dual structural fused system consists of replaceable ductile elements (fuses) that sustain major seismic damage and leave the primary structure (PS) virtually undamaged. The seismic performance of a fused structural system is determined by the combined behavior of the individual PS and fuse components. In order to design a feasible and economic structural fuse concept, we need a procedure to ...
متن کاملSeismic performance of transportation structures
Revolutionary changes which have taken place in the USA over the past 50 years in earthquake engineering as applied to transportation structures (highway bridges, and transit and high-speed rail aerial structures) are reviewed, giving emphasis to seismic design criteria, characterization of seismic ground motions, dual strategy of seismic design, modelling and dynamic analysis, assessment of se...
متن کاملOPTIMAL PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OF COMPOSITE BUILDING FRAMES WITH RC COLUMNS AND STEEL BEAMS
Composite RCS building frames integrate reinforced concrete columns with structural steel beams to provide an efficient solution for the design and construction of earthquake-resisting structures. In this paper, an optimization framework is developed for performance-based seismic design of planar RCS moment resisting frames. The objective functions are defined as minimizing the construction cos...
متن کاملPerformance Based Seismic Rehabilitation of Steel Structures with Different Types of Shear Walls
Seismic rehabilitation provides existing buildings with more resistance to seismic activity, ground motion, or geotechnical failure due to earthquakes. Performance-based rehabilitation is a general concept through which the retrofitting criteria are defined regarding to performance objectives when the structural and nonstructural members are subject to different levels of earthquake hazards. In...
