The reliability of advanced nonlinear static procedures to estimate deformation demands of steel momentresisting frames under seismic loads is investigated. The advantages of refined adaptive and multimodal pushover procedures over conventional methods based on invariant lateral load patterns are evaluated. In particular, their computational attractiveness and capability of providing satisfactory predictions of seismic demands in comparison with those obtained by conventional force-based methods are examined. The results obtained by the static advanced methods, used in the form of different variants of the original Capacity Spectrum Method and Modal Pushover Analysis, are compared with the results of nonlinear response history analysis. Both effectiveness and accuracy of these approximated methods are verified through an extensive comparative study involving both regular and irregular steel moment resisting frames subjected to different acceleration records.

Modal Pushover

Because the traditional pushover analysis can not take the contributions of higher modes into account, To overcome this limitation, a modal pushover analysis procedure (MPA) is proposed by some researchers, which can involve the combination of multi-mode contributions to response. In this paper, much improvement on MPA procedure is made with consideration of the changes of seismic response after structural yielding and anew distribution of inertia forces. The method is verified by one example of bridge structure. It is concluded that the improvement part-sectionalized MPA presented in this paper has high accuracy.
