Pushover Analysis as per EC8:2004

Overview

Pushover Analysis Procedure


The pushover analysis procedure is as follows:

Pushover analysis is one of the performance-based design methods, recently attracting practicing structural engineers engaged in the field of seismic design. The objective of a performance-based design is achieved after the user and the designer collectively select a target performance for the structure in question. The engineer carries out the conventional design and subsequently performs a pushover (elasto-plastic)

analysis to evaluate if the selected performance objective has


been met. In midas Gen, pushover analysis as per EN1998:2004 is provided. This tutorial explains the method and procedure for pushover analysis of 2-dimensional RC structural as per EN1998:2004. For this reason, the procedure for modeling and analysis were not explained in detail. For the users who are not familiar with the basic functions for modeling and analysis, it is recommended to review Application 1 tutorial before following this tutorial.

Scale Factor for Ultimate Rotation

1) Wall : In calculating the total chord rotation capacity at ultimate , u, for wall , the value is divided by 1.6 as per EN1998-3:2004 A.3.1.1.
2) Cold-worked brittle steel : If cold-worked brittle steel is used the total chord rotation capacity is divided by 1.6 as per EN1998-3:2004 A.3.1.1. 3) Without Detailing for earthquake resistance : In members without detailing for earthquake resistance the total chord rotation capacity is multiplied by 0.85 as per EN1998-3:2004 . 4) Smooth longitudinal bars : in members with smooth (plain) longitudinal bars without lapping in the vicinity of the end region where yielding is expected, the total chord rotation capacity may be multiplied by 0.575 as per EN1998-3:2004.

Step 4: Pushover Global Control

Secondary Seismic Elements In order to calculate the total chord rotation capacity at ultimate, u, the factor el is used. Since el is differently applied for primary and secondary seismic element (el = 1.5 for primary seismic elements, el = 1.0 for secondary seismic elements As per EN1998-3:2004 A.3.1.1), the user can define Secondary Seismic Elements group. If Secondary Seismic Elements are not defined, all the elements are considered as Primary Seismic Elements. In this tutorial, Secondary Seismic Elements are not defined since pushover hinge properties are assigned to primary elements only.

For the detailed formula of the Target Displacement, refer to ANNEX B DETERMINATION OF THE TARGET DISPLACEMENT FOR NONLINEAR STATIC (PUSHOVER) ANALYSIS, EN 1998-1:2004. The target displacement, which is obtained from the above, corresponds to the seismic demand of the Limit State of Significant Damage (SD). Target displacement of the Limit State of Near Collapse (NC) is taken equal to that of SD multiplied by 1.5. Target displacement of the Limit State of Damage Limitation (DL) is taken equal to that of SD divided by 2.5.
