    EQ Response of Multistory Building 2010

    Uploaded by

    Robel Wondimu
    The document discusses the earthquake response of linearly elastic and inelastic buildings. It analyzes how the beam to column stiffness ratio, fundamental natural period, and inclusion of higher modes affect response. Response is more dependent on higher modes for lower stiffness ratios and higher periods. Ductility demand can exceed allowable values for structures with weak or soft stories.

    Summary
     As increases ρ from 0 to ∞
     Fundamental period decreases
     Natural periods become closer
     Natural mode shapes vary significantly
     The effect of ρ becomes significant for high T1
     As ρ decreases, higher mode contribution for base
    shear & moment increases
     The higher mode response is significant for:
     Base shear than base overturning moment
     Top shear than base shear

    Earthquake response of inelastic buildings


     Allowable ductility and Ductility Demand
     For SDOF systems
     allowable ductility = ductility demand
     For MDOF systems
     Ductility demand depends on the relative yield strengths
    of the various stories, in some cases:
    ductility demand >> allowable ductility
     Two extreme cases are discussed:
     Weak first story :– smaller yield strength
     Soft first story :– smaller yield strength & smaller stiffness
