2 Seismic Design Philosophy Main Concepts Energy dissipation Ductility Capacity design Learning from Earthquakes

3 Energy Dissipation 3

4 Ductility and Ductility Factors Ductility is the ability of the system to undergo plastic deformation. The structural system deforms before collapse without a substantial loss of strength but with a significant energy dissipation. The system can be designed with smaller restoring forces, exploiting its ability to undergo plastic deformation. Ductility factor (δ u /δ y ): Ratio of the ultimate deformation at failure δ u to the yield deformation δ y. * δ u is defined for design purposes as the deformation for which the material or the structural element loses a predefined percentage of its maximum strength. 4

5 In terms of displacements: Ductility Factors µ δ = δ δ u y δ u : ultimate deformation at failure δ y : yield deformation In terms of rotations: (for members) µ θ = θ θ u y θ u : ultimate rotation at failure θ y : yield rotation In terms of curvatures: (for members) µ ϕ = ϕ ϕ u y φ u : ultimate curvature at failure φ y : yield curvature 5

6 Behaviour q Factor The q factor corresponds to the reduction in the level of seismic forces due to nonlinear behaviour as compared with the expected elastic force levels.

9 Design spectrum for linear analysis The capacity of structural systems to resist seismic actions in the non-linear range permits their design for resistance to seismic forces smaller than those corresponding to a linear elastic response. The energy dissipation capacity of the structure is taken into account mainly through the ductile behavior of its elements by performing a linear analysis based on a reduced response spectrum, called design spectrum. This reduction is accomplished by introducing the behavior factor q. 9

10 Design spectrum for linear analysis (Eurocode 8) For the horizontal components of the seismic action the design spectrum, S d (T), shall be defined by the following expressions: a g is the design ground acceleration on type A ground (a g = γ I.a gr ); γ I =importance factor T B is the lower limit of the period of the constant spectral acceleration branch; T C is the upper limit of the period of the constant spectral acceleration branch; T D is the value defining the beginning of the constant displacement response range of the spectrum; S is the soil factor S d (T) is the design spectrum; q is the behaviour factor; β is the lower bound factor for the horizontal design spectrum, recommended β=0,2 10

11 Importance Classes (Eurocode 8) 11

12 Behaviour Factor (Eurocode 8) The upper limit value of the behavior factor q, introduced to account for energy dissipation capacity, shall be derived for each design direction as follows: q = q o k w 1,5 Where q o is the basic value of the behavior factor, dependent on the type of the structural system and on its regularity in elevation; k w is the factor reflecting the prevailing failure mode in structural systems with walls: k = (1 + a ) / 3 1 and 0, 5 a = Pr evailing wall aspect ratio =Σh / Σ u o o wi wi Low Ductility Class (DCL): Seismic design for low ductility, following EC2 without any additional requirements other than those of 5.3.2, is recomended only for low seismicity cases (see 3.2.1(4)). 12

13 Behaviour Factor (Eurocode 8) A behaviour factor q of up to 1,5 may be used in deriving the seismic actions, regardless of the structural system and the regularity in elevation. Medium (DCM) and High Ductility Class (DCH): For buildings which are not regular in elevation, the value of qo should be reduced by 20% 13

14 a u /a 1 in behaviour factor of buildings designed for ductility: due to system redundancy & overstrenght

15 Structural Regularity (Eurocode 8) For seismic design, building structures in all modern codes are separated in two categories: a) regular buildings b) non-regular buildings This distinction has implications for the following aspects of the seismic design: the structural model, which can be either a simplified planar model or a spatial model ; the method of analysis, which can be either a simplified response spectrum analysis (lateral force procedure) or a modal one; the value of the behavior factor q, which shall be decreased for buildings non-regular in elevation 15

16 Structural Regularity (Eurocode 8) 16

17 Criteria for Regularity in Elevation (Eurocode 8) All lateral load resisting systems, such as cores, structural walls, or frames, shall run without interruption from their foundations to the top of the building or, if setbacks at different heights are present, to the top of the relevant zone of the building. Both the lateral stiffness and the mass of the individual storeys shall remain constant or reduce gradually, without abrupt changes, from the base to the top of a particular building. When setbacks are present, special additional provisions apply. 17

Such elements shall be designed and detailed to maintain their capacity to support the gravity loads present in the seismic design situation, when subjected to the maximum deformations under the seismic design situation. Maximum deformations shall account for P-Δ. In more detail , , 5.7
