Book excerpt: This report, FEMA-350 - Recommended Seismic Design Criteria for New Steel Moment-Frame Buildings has been developed by the SAC Joint Venture under contract to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide organizations engaged in the development of consensus design standards and building code provisions with recommended criteria for the design and construction of new buildings incorporating moment-resisting steel frame construction to resist the effects of earthquakes. It is one of a series of companion publications addressing the issue of the seismic performance of steel moment-frame buildings. The set of companion publications includes: FEMA-350 - Recommended Seismic Design Criteria for New Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommended criteria, supplemental to FEMA-302 - 1997 NEHRP Recommended Provisions for Seismic Regulations for New Buildings and Other Structures, for the design and construction of steel moment-frame buildings and provides alternative performance-based design criteria. FEMA-351 - Recommended Seismic Evaluation and Upgrade Criteria for Existing Welded Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommended methods to evaluate the probable performance of existing steel moment-frame buildings in future earthquakes and to retrofit these buildings for improved performance. FEMA-352 - Recommended Postearthquake Evaluation and Repair Criteria for Welded Steel Moment-Frame Buildings. This publication provides recommendations for performing postearthquake inspections to detect damage in steel moment-frame buildings following an earthquake, evaluating the damaged buildings to determine their safety in the postearthquake environment, and repairing damaged buildings. FEMA-353 - Recommended Specifications and Quality Assurance Guidelines for Steel Moment-Frame Construction for Seismic Applications. This publication provides recommended specifications for the fabrication and erection of steel moment frames for seismic applications. The recommended design criteria contained in the other companion documents are based on the material and workmanship standards contained in this document, which also includes discussion of the basis for the quality control and quality assurance criteria contained in the recommended specifications. The information contained in these recommended design criteria, hereinafter referred to as Recommended Criteria, is presented in the form of specific design and performance evaluation procedures together with supporting commentary explaining part of the basis for these recommendations.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the embrace of the performance-based seismic design as the state-of-the-art design method, recent emphasis has been placed on eliminating its drawbacks and facilitating its application in practice. This study aims to propose an alternative design method: performance-based analytics-driven seismic design, which is applied to steel moment resisting frame buildings. First, the seismic performance of self-centering (with post-tensioned connections) and conventional moment resisting frames (with reduced-beam section connection) is comparatively assessed. The comparison indicates that the economic benefit for adopting the post-tensioned connection is not significant. Then, an end-to-end computational platform, which automates the seismic design, nonlinear structural model construction, and response simulation (static and dynamic) of steel moment resisting frames is developed. Using this platform, a comprehensive database is developed, which includes 621 special steel moment resisting frames designed in accordance with modern codes and standards and their corresponding nonlinear structural models and seismic responses (i.e., peak story drifts, peak floor accelerations, and residual story drifts). Using this database, the efficacy of mechanics-based, data-driven, and hybrid (combination of mechanics-based and data driven) approaches to estimating the seismic drift demand are evaluated. The evaluation results reveal that the hybrid approach has the best performance whereas the mechanics-based model has the lowest performance. Next, a set of non-parametric and parametric surrogate models are developed for estimating the engineering demand parameter distributions. A comparative assessment of the proposed surrogate models and the simplified analysis method proposed by FEMA P-58 is conducted to demonstrate the superior predictive performance of the former. Finally, the effect of various design variables on the collapse performance of steel moment resisting frames are evaluated. The research findings presented in this study helps to facilitate the application of 2nd performance-based earthquake engineering framework in practice and thus better help to create earthquake-resilient communities.

Download or read book Seismic Design Methods for Steel Building Structures written by George A. Papagiannopoulos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, after two introductory chapters on seismic design principles and structural seismic analysis methods, proceeds with the detailed description of seismic design methods for steel building structures. These methods include all the well-known methods, like force-based or displacement-based methods, plus some other methods developed by the present authors or other authors that have reached a level of maturity and are applicable to a large class of steel building structures. For every method, detailed practical examples and supporting references are provided in order to illustrate the methods and demonstrate their merits. As a unique feature, the present book describes not just one, as it is the case with existing books on seismic design of steel structures, but various seismic design methods including application examples worked in detail. The book is a valuable source of information, not only for MS and PhD students, but also for researchers and practicing engineers engaged with the design of steel building structures.

This book was released on 2000-04-27 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unexpected brittle failure of connections and of members occurred during the last earthquakes of Northridge and Kobe. For this reason a heightened awareness developed in the international scientific community, particularly in the earthquake prone countries of the Mediterranean and Eastern Europe, of the urgent need to investigate this topic. The contents of this volume result from a European project dealing with the 'Reliability of moment resistant connections of steel frames in seismic areas' (RECOS), developed between 1997 and 1999 within the INCO-Copernicus joint research projects of the 4th Framework Program. The 30 month project focused on five key areas: *Analysis and syntheses of research results, including code provisos, in relation with the evidence of the Northridge and Kobe earthquakes; *Identification and evaluation through experimental means of the structural performance of beam-to-column connections under cyclic loading; *Setting up of sophisticated models for interpreting the connection response; *Numerical study on the connection influence on the seismic response of steel buildings; *Assessment of new criteria for selecting the behaviour factor for different structural schemes and definition of the corresponding range of validity in relation of the connection typologies.
