FORCE-BASED VS. DISPLACEMENT-BASED FORCE-BASED METHOD CRITICISMS Stiffness is estimated to determine the period T. Stiffness is dependent on strength which cannot be know until the end of the design process Allocating seismic force between elements based on initial stiffness is illogical because different elements might not yield simultaneously The assumption that unique force-reduction factors are appropriate for a given structural type and material is at least disputable. Displacement check is performed at last [Priestly, Calvi, Kowalsky Displacement-Based Seismic Design of Structures ] ] 10
FORCE-BASED VS. DISPLACEMENT-BASED SEISMIC CODES PROVIDE A VARIETY OF DESIGN DISPLACEMENT [Priestly, Calvi, Kowalsky Displacement-Based Seismic Design of Structures ] ] why not starting straight from a design displacement? 11
FORCE-BASED VS. DISPLACEMENT-BASED Estimate Structural Dimensions: Calculate yield displacement y Select the ductility level l µ and the max permitted drift Θ Calculate the design displacement d =min{θh;µ y } Calculate the design ductility µ d = d / y Calculate the effective stiffness K e (m e,t e ) Calculate the design forces and moments: e.g. K e d & K e d H Capacity design with particular attention to material properties, over strength factors and P- Calculate the updated plastic displacement for the obtained section: d,ls DISPLACEMENT-BASED REMARKS Constant yield curvature behaviour for a given geometrical section Empirical calculation (through calibrated laws) of ξ hyst Use of elastic displacement spectra with adequate damping: NO R or q force reduction factor The design is made onto the secant stiffness K e Calculate the secant-stiffness equivalent damping ξ eq = ξ el + ξ hyst d,ls = d N Y END Calculate the effective response period T e ( d,ξ e ) Calculate the updated design displacement d NEW =min{θh; d,ls } 12
FORCE-BASED VS. DISPLACEMENT-BASED DO YOUTHINKA DIRECT DISPLACEMENT-BASED METHOD IS GOING TO BE THE FUTURE FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF NEW STRUCTURES? IN ANY CASE IT APPEARS MORE RATIONAL 13
