There are associated changes arising through related Eurocodes and product standards.

17 EUROCODE 8 (SEISMIC DESIGN): SPECIFIC RULES FOR CONCRETE BUILDINGS Ductility classes New ductility classes (DC) (changes dictated by national comments supported by a number of background studies) DC H ( old Μ, increased q, CD for V Sd in beams,...) DC Μ ( old L, increasedq,cd forv Sd in beams,...) DC L (EC2, no brittle steel Α, q 1.5) Basic value of behaviour factor (q ) STRUCTURAL TYPE DCH DCM Frame system, dual system, coupled wall system 4,5α u /α 1 3,α u /α 1 Wall system 4,α u /α 1 3, Core system 3, 2, Inverted pendulum system 2, 1,5 17

18 Overstrength α 1 : seismic action at first yield (anywhere) α u : seismic action at development of overall structural instability (collapse mechanism) Obtained from pushover analysis (α u /α 1 1.5), or defaults: Frames (or frame-equivalent dual): α u /α 1 =1.3 (1.1 for one-storey, 1.2 for one-bay frames) Wall (or wall-equivalent dual): Wall systems with only two uncoupled walls per horizontal direction: α u /α 1 =1. Other uncoupled wall systems: α u /α 1 =1.1 Wall -equivalent dual, or coupled wall systems: α u /α 1 =1.2 Final behaviour factor q=q o. k w 1,5 New structural systems Large lightly reinforced wall system: comprises at least two walls with horizontal dimension not less than 4m and 2h w /3, which collectively support at least 2% of the total gravity load above in the seismic design situation has a fundamental period T 1, for assumed fixity at the base against rotation, less or equal to.5sec If a structural system does not qualify as a system of large lightly reinforced walls, then all its walls should be designed and detailed as ductile walls Frame, dual or wall systems without a minimum torsional rigidity (e o <.3r) should be classified as torsionally flexible (core) systems 18

19 Design criteria Local resistance condition: E d R d Capacity design rule: E d from equilibrium conditions, assuming plastic hinges with their possible overstrengths formed in adjacent areas to avoid brittle or undesirable failure mechanisms Local ductility condition: high plastic rotational capacities in potential plastic hinge regions sufficient curvature ductility (post-failure 85%-moment resistance level) in all critical regions of primary elements μ φ =2q o -1 if T 1 T C μ φ =1+2(q o -1)T C /T 1 if T 1 <T C (based on μ φ =2μ δ -1 and μ δ =q if T 1 T C, μ δ =1+(q-1)T C /T 1 if T 1 <T C ) Note that q<q o for irregular structures (no reduction in μ φ,req!) Structural redundancy: high degree of redundancy accompanied by redistribution capacity (otherwise lower q-factor) Secondary seismic members and resistances: resistances or stabilising effects not explicitly taken into account (e.g. membrane reactions of slabs mobilised by upwards deflections of structural walls) non-structural elements (esp. masonry infills!) Specific additional measures (to reduce uncertainty): minimize geometric errors (min dimensions, max b/h etc.) minimize ductility uncertainties (min μ φ, minρ l, ν max ) 19

20 Safety verifications For ULS verifications, partial safety factors for materials γ c and γ s shall account for strength degradation due to the cyclic deformations γ c =1.5 and γ s =1.15 (as in EC2) can be taken (convenient for practice!) assuming that due to local ductility provisions the ratio between the residual strength after degradation and the initial one is roughly equal to the ratio between the γ M -values for accidental and fundamental load combinations if strength degradation is appropriately accounted in the evaluation of the material properties, the γ M -values adopted for the accidental design situation may be used Design to Eurocode 2 (EN1992-1) 1) Recommended only for low seismicity areas In primary elements, reinforcing steel of class B or C (table C.1 EN1992-1) shall be used Behaviour factor up to q=1.5 may be used in deriving the seismic actions, regardless of the structural system and of regularity in elevation 2
