Book Advancements in the Seismic Design of Cold formed Steel Structures Through the Investigation of Diaphragm Behaviour and the Influence of Non structural Components

Download or read book Advancements in the Seismic Design of Cold formed Steel Structures Through the Investigation of Diaphragm Behaviour and the Influence of Non structural Components written by Violetta Nikolaidou and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Recent shake table experimental work revealed that cold-formed steel (CFS) buildings exhibit excellent structural performance under high earthquake excitations; however, due to the complex nonlinear response of CFS members and their interactions, the reasons behind this performance are still unclear. Currently, in the AISI S400 North American Standard for Seismic Design of Cold-Formed Steel Structural Systems the seismic design of CFS framed structures is based on the lateral response of CFS framed shear walls and special moment frames, as the primary lateral load resisting elements; the contribution to the lateral stiffness of non-structural gypsum sheathing is included with limitations about its applicability while of the diaphragm component is not taken into account.An experimental diaphragm program of OSB sheathed / CFS framed diaphragm configurations was launched at McGill University. Experimental results underlined the dependency of the diaphragm's lateral response on screw spacing and size and the beneficial effect of panel edge blocking. Diaphragm configurations with non-structural components were also tested. Subsequently, a 3D numerical model of a case-study two-storey CFS building was created incorporating non-structural components. Response history dynamic analyses results revealed the addition of gypsum sheathing and gravity walls as substantially increasing the lateral resistance of the structure. Focusing on the influence of the diaphragm's flexibility on a CFS building a parametric numerical study was realized, where three diaphragm stiffness conditions were examined; flexible, semi-rigid and rigid. Response history analyses results revealed reduction of the wall-line storey drifts with increase of the diaphragm flexibility; the level of that reduction is dependent on the input ground motion. The rigid diaphragm assumption for the building, used in design, was able to capture adequately the shear wall forces; however, it overestimated the wall-line storey drift ratios of the CFS building." --

Book Seismic Behavior of Cold Formed Steel Framed Wall Line Systems in Mid Rise Buildings

Download or read book Seismic Behavior of Cold Formed Steel Framed Wall Line Systems in Mid Rise Buildings written by Amanpreet Singh and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cold-formed steel (CFS) framing offers many benefits to buildings in seismically active regions. Amongst the most notable CFS attributes include its low fabrication and maintenance costs, noncombustible and corrosion resistant nature, high durability and ductility. These benefits have made CFS framing a popular choice for construction of low-rise and mid-rise structures. From a seismic performance perspective, the light weight and ductility offered by a CFS-framed structure aligns with system resiliency needs in moderate to high seismic zones. Although experimental data exists documenting the performance of isolated CFS-framed shear walls, the structural lateral force resisting systems (LFRS) in CFS-framed buildings are constructed and integrally attached to non-designated systems, such as gravity walls as well as various nonstructural components. The contribution of the non-designated systems and the nonstructural components towards the response of wall-lines within the building system under high intensity earthquake shaking is not well understood. Moreover, experimental data to support code guidelines in current North American standards for design of CFS-framed shear walls, which meet the seismic demands for mid-rise buildings (>6 stories) are lacking. Indeed, the paucity of full-scale test data documenting the behavior of wall-line systems detailed for mid-rise buildings has been a barrier to bringing the potential benefits of CFS framing to the community. To address these limitations, a two-phased experimental program was undertaken in this dissertation to advance the understanding of CFS-framed steel sheet sheathed shear walls placed in-line with gravity walls. Referred to herein as "wall-lines", these test specimens were detailed to support the lateral load demands anticipated of mid-rise buildings in high seismic zones. In the first phase, wall-line assemblies were tested at full-scale on a shake table, first under a sequence of increasing amplitude (in-plane) earthquake input motions, and subsequently under slow monotonic pull conditions (for select specimens). In the second phase, wall-line assemblies were tested under quasi-static reverse cyclic displacement-controlled loading using a simulated floor-load imposed via hydraulic actuators. Steel sheet sheathed shear walls offered energy dissipation primarily through structural member-to-sheathing connections and yielding of the steel sheet. All specimens demonstrated a tension field that spread across the entirety of the steel sheet at failure. The impact of different test variables governing the structural and nonstructural detailing on the seismic performance of the CFS-framed wall-line specimens is quantified by careful systematic comparison between different configurations. Wall-line assemblies with interior and exterior finish demonstrated substantially increased strength and stiffness without any decrease in drift capacity or change in failure mode. Specimens with hold-downs offered a larger lateral strength compared to specimens with tension tie-rods. However, hold-downs reached their capacity at higher drift demands whereas tension tie-rods remained linear elastic, even though both wall-lines with the different tie-down systems were designed for same overstrength force levels. The second part of this work involved a comprehensive numerical modeling effort, using prior experimental findings, both of the wall-line experiments discussed herein as well as a previous mid-rise six-story building specimen tested at full-scale using a suite of earthquake excitations. The developed finite element model takes into consideration the major assemblies, beyond just the isolated shear walls, which influence the dynamic response of the system, such as the strength and stiffness contribution from gravity walls as well as nonstructural components such as exterior and interior finishes installed over the shear wall and gravity wall segments. In this phase, as is common in west coast practice in the United States, a continuous tie-rod system is also modeled to capture the cumulative floor displacements caused by the axial elongation in the steel rods. The effect of built-up stud packs on strength, stiffness and drift parameters of a shear wall is also considered in the nonlinear hysteretic material model of shear walls. Very good agreement between numerical predictions and available experimental seismic response data of the six-story test building demonstrates that the proposed numerical model scheme can be employed to predict the seismic response of mid-rise CFS-framed buildings. Development of such a numerical model is an essential tool for enabling performance-based seismic design of cold-formed steel structures in this rapidly growing industry.

Book Seismic Design of Lateral Resisting Cold formed Steel Framed  CFS  Structures

Download or read book Seismic Design of Lateral Resisting Cold formed Steel Framed CFS Structures written by Iman Shamim and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Seismic design provisions for wood sheathed / cold-formed steel (CFS) framed shear walls and CFS strap braced walls are available in the AISI S213-07 Standard. However, the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC), as well as the CSA S136 and the AISI S213 Standards, at present, do not address the seismic design of steel sheathed / CFS framed shear walls for use in Canada. The existing design guidelines for CFS framed shear walls are based on data obtained from static tests carried out under both monotonic and reversed cyclic loading protocols. The objective of this research was to develop seismic design provisions for the CFS framed shear walls forming part of the seismic force resisting system of a building, with the intent to recommend that they be included in the NBCC and AISI S213. The approach involved shake table testing of single- and double-storey CFS framed steel and wood sheathed shear walls, numerical modeling of the tested shear walls, and, lastly, non-linear time history dynamic analyses of building archetypes following the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) P695 methodology. Overall, seven wood sheathed and ten steel sheathed CFS framed shear walls were tested on the Ecole Polytechnique de Montréal structural laboratory shake table. The wall specimens were full-scale single- and double-storey walls and, most, were constructed with the blocking in the CFS frame. A wood sheathed shear wall was tested with a gypsum panel on one side of the specimen in order to investigate the effects of non-structural components. The dynamic test program included impact tests, harmonic forced vibration tests, and ground motion tests representative of the seismic hazard in Quebec and Vancouver, Canada. The seismic performance of the dynamically tested shear walls, i.e. force vs. displacement hysteretic behaviour and failure modes, was primarily similar to the static tests. Inclusion of the blocking increased the shear strength of the tested shear walls by almost 50%. OpenSees software was used for the numerical modelling of the dynamically tested walls. The inelastic behaviour of the shear walls was replicated by using the Pinching04 material; additional zerolength spring elements were included in the model to represent frame stiffness, anchor rod stiffness and the CFS framing. The wall models were calibrated based on the results of the dynamic tests, as well as data obtained from the calibration of previously performed static tests. Moreover, to provide experimental data to complete the model calibration procedure a series of static tests was conducted on blocked CFS bare frames and stud-to-track connections. The archetype buildings (twelve in total) were two, four and five storey office and residential buildings located in Halifax, Montreal and Vancouver, Canada. The buildings designed with Rd = 2.0 and Ro = 1.3 satisfied the FEMA P695 collapse capacity requirements. Inclusion of gypsum panel in two of the archetype buildings increased the collapse margin ratio by 20% on average." --
