Introduction

The buildings are designed by the regulations of the codes with pre written procedures.
The goal of this design is to meet all code requirements.

In this design pre written is used as a normal practice assuming linear elastic response of
the structure, which does not take into account the redistribution of forces due to the
nonlinear behavior of the elements and the ability to dissipate energy having material after
creep. For this reason there have been considerable damage and the goal of saving the
lives of the people has not been achieved. Security structure should be understood as
having this ability to deform in the inelastic range without collapse.

During a seismic excitation, the structure is generally responds more of its elastic
capacity. There are two options for assessing the performance of an inelastic structure: 1-
Pushover

2- Time History (Nonlinear)

Introduction

Based Design Resistance.

If the Force Demand (F Factored) <that the yield strength (Fy), it is reasonable to use the linear analysis for calculating the strength of demand. But the
codes do not compare with the force of creep if not rather with reduced ultimate capacity, which means that if the power demand exceeds the yield
strength in the event of an earthquake would be very conservative and we'd use a much larger force that actually is occurring in the element, as
illustrated in the following chart.

F demand

This causes will have to provide greater capacity than


necessary, resulting in a very conservative design.

φF capacity

F creep

F demand

Ductile under a given action elements, it is more reasonable to analyze the structure by measuring the ratio between the deformation of the deformation
demand vs. capacity, using the nonlinear analysis.

Elements with brittle behavior is more reasonable to verify the relationship between resistance vs demand since the deformations govern behavior.
Seismic Design Based on Performance
(PBSD)

The performance-based design is a different alternative to conventional pre written design


providing codes. The concept using "PBSD" implies limits set multiple performance
(damage). These damages will depend on the intensity of the movement and should not be
exceeded. The appropriate seismic intensities using probabilistic methods and acceptable
levels of damage can be established to both structural and non-structural.

Documents describing the PBSD:


• FEMA (For Existing structures)
• ATC (For Existing structures)

Global deformation and ductile Structure Performance

1. Immediate Occupancy: Damage is relatively limited. The structure retains a significant portion of its
original rigidity and most of its rigidity.
2. Safety of Lives: A substantial harm will occur to the structure and a significant loss of its original stiffness.
After this limit there is a substantial range of deformation prior to collapse.

3. Collapse Prevention Level: The building undergoes extreme damage. If the structure is displaced laterally
over this point the structure is unstable and collapse.

The Pushover technique is appropriate for:

• Lateral Curve get beyond the range Elastic capacity.

• Get the sequential formation and failure mechanisms elements.

General concept of technical Pushover:

• It is a successive process of incremental static analysis taking into account the stiffness
variation in the elements in each element.

• The analysis is performed by increasing the lateral load until the structure reaches certain limits
displacement or become unstable.

This process requires:

• Knowing the dimensions and steel sections.

Section 2.4.2.1 states that FEMA 356 method (NSP) should not be used in structures where the effect of higher modes is
significant (usually in structures with a height greater than 30 meters).

To define whether the higher modes are significant:


1. Make Modal Analysis modes Espectral enough to capture 90% share of the dough.

2. Perform another Modal Analysis Spectral involving only the first mode.
3. If the cutting in a flat in the first spectral modal analysis is greater than 130% of the cutting obtained only with the

Inelastic Nonlinear Analysis IN TIME

This analysis is used to determine the dynamic response of a structure under arbitrary loads
(accelerogram). The set of applied forces changes continuously as ground accelerations change over
time. If the building is damaged rigidities of the structure change. The response is calculated in each
time step usually every 1/100 seconds or less.

In a typical building it requires solving thousands of simultaneous equations. One of the difficulties of
analysis is that it is not known which acelelograma appropriate. You can use the EZ-FRISK v7.32
program to predict the seismic movement that can occur at the site.

Some typical questions:


As differs Dynamic Nonlinear Analysis Linear analysis?

1. Analysis of Spectral Response is used for dynamic linear analysis but is not used in the nonlinear
analysis. The reason is that this analysis depends on the overlay, which does not apply in the nonlinear
response.
2. For linear analysis all components are elastic and elastic properties only needed for analysis. In the
nonlinear analysis some components can flow and required properties
Additional to analyze these
components.
3. In a linear analysis forces in the structural components are computed and performance is assessed using
D / C. In the nonlinear analysis inelastic deformations also computed are used to evaluate performance
(An example is the plastic rotations).

4. In a linear model analysis using typical components (bars, beams, columns, Shell) while in a nonlinear
model there are more components due to the diversity of behaviors that can be studied.

5. The properties required for analysis are linear EI, EA rigidities. In the nonlinear case we need the creep
strength, creep and after degradation stiffness cyclic loads.

2. Define gravity loads.
3. Define the properties of the structural components.
4. Define Deformation capabilities. In the linear analysis by the resistance formulate resistance are clearly
standardized codes. Deformation capabilities are less standardized and require more judgment and
personal opinion, as experience.

5. Select several earthquakes.


6. Analyze the structure under gravity loads.
7. Run the dynamic non-linear analysis.

Some typical questions:


How are the results of analysis used to assess performance
structural?

1. Some components have a ductile behavior and this inelastic behavior is allowed to explore these cases
we use D / C for the deformations (An example is the plastic rotations steel girders).

2. In other cases we may not ductile cases where an inelastic behavior is not allowed. In these cases the
performance is assessed using D / C resistance (An example is the cutting in a reinforced concrete
beam).
3. Another widely used measure of performance are "Drift".

1. The goal of any analysis is to get as much information for the design and this can best be obtained by
nonlinear analysis.

This program offers the nonlinear static pushover analysis and dynamic analysis for wrapping

This model requires specifying the nonlinear relationship between the times the ends of the beam and rotation occurring at the ends,
called rotation of the rope. This rotation eliminates rotation of the rigid arms of the board that is not taken into account. This
relationship is not the same as the relationship between the time and curvature. One advantage of this model is that FEMA gives us

The length can be determined plasticizing as recommended by Paulay and Priestley authors, the term L = the distance to the turning

1. If desired you can ignore the contribution of the stiffness of the wall and its resistance.
Considering only the rigidity in the plane. The wall thickness for bending out of the plane
must be placed very small, but considering the P-Delta effect not to do this, because
there will be possible buckling.

2. If we use the total wall thickness is recommended to reduce the elastic modulus 0.5E, to
