With the project case, the seismic performance of girder transfer floor member and the plate transfer floor member were discussed. Contrast calculation was carried out in girder transfer floor member and the plate transfer floor member with SATWE method to analyze its reasonable and unreasonable places. Based on overall structure calculation of a high rise building, the seismic design requirements for buildings applying thick transferring plate have been presented. The conclusion is that the seismic performance of girder transfer floor member is more advantageous and affordable, more convenient and more economical in ingredients.

High Rise

<p>With the continuous development and progress of society, the structure of high-rise buildings has been paid more and more attention by the engineering community. However, the existing high- rise structure design methods often have a lot of redundancy and have a lot of room for optimization. Most of the existing seismic design methods of high-rise structures are based on engineering experience and manual iterative methods, so that the efficiency of design can not meet the needs of the society. if the method of design automation is adopted, the workload of designers can be greatly reduced and the efficiency of structural design can be improved. Based on the digital modeling theory, this paper proposes a MAD automatic design algorithm, in which the designer provides the initial design of the structure, and the algorithm carries out the modeling, analysis, optimization and design of each stage of the structure, and finally obtains the optimal structure. The structural design module of this algorithm starts from the component level, when the component constraint design meets the limit requirements of the specification, it enters and completes the component constraint design and the global constraint design of the structure in turn. In this paper, taking a ten-story braced steel frame high-rise structure as an example, the optimal design is carried out, and its seismic performance is analyzed. the results show that the MAD automatic design algorithm can distribute the materials to each part reasonably, which can significantly improve the seismic performance of the structure and realize the effective seismic design.</p>

According to the observations of past earthquakes, the vertical ground motions have had a striking influence on the engineering structures, especially reinforced concrete ones. Nevertheless, the number of studies on their aftermath is insufficient, and despite some endeavors done by researchers, there is still a shortage of knowledge about the inclusion of vertical excitation on the seismic performance and the collapse probability of RC buildings. Hence, the variation in the collapse risk of three high-rise RC frame-core wall structures when they undergo bi-directional ground motions is discussed. In this paper, incremental dynamic analyses are carried out under two circumstances, including the horizontal (H) and the combined horizontal and vertical (H+V) earthquakes, and the seismic fragility curves are derived. The inter-story drift ratio corresponding to the onset of collapse has also been defined. The buildings collapse risk under the two circumstances is obtained from the risk integral. Results indicate that in the H+V state, structures meet the collapse criteria for lower intensity measures. Thus, the collapse risk increases as the structures are subjected to bi-directional seismic loads, and the consideration of this effect leads to a more accurate evaluation of buildings seismic performance.

Shaking Table Model Test

A building developed by Wuhan Shimao Group in Wuhan, China, is a high-rise residence with 56 stories near the Yangtze River. The building is a reinforced concrete structure, featuring with a nonregular T-type plane and a height 179.6 m, which is out of the restrictions specified by the China Technical Specification for Concrete Structures of Tall Building (JGJ3-2010). To investigate its seismic performance, a shaking table test with a 1/30 scale model is carried out in Structural Laboratory in Wuhan University of Technology. The dynamic characteristics and the responses of the model subject to different seismic intensities are investigated via the analyzing of shaking table test data and the observed cracking pattern of the scaled model. Finite element analysis of the shaking table model is also established, and the results are coincident well with the test. An autoregressive method is also presented to identify the damage of the structure after suffering from different waves, and the results coincide well with the test and numerical simulation. The shaking table model test, numerical analysis, and damage identification prove that this building is well designed and can be safely put into use. Suggestions and measures to improve the seismic performance of structures are also presented.
