This manuscript, the first in a four-part series, describes the response history analysis approach developed for Chapter 16 of the ASCE/SEI 7 Standard and critical issues related to the specification of ground motions. Our approach provides new procedures for demonstrating adherence to collapse safety goals for new buildings (≤10% collapse probability at the MCER shaking level), creating nonlinear structural models, selecting and applying ground motions to the structural model, interpreting computed structural responses, and enforcing acceptance criteria to achieve the collapse safety goal. The ground motion provisions provide the option of using target spectra having more realistic spectral shapes than traditional uniform hazard spectra. Ground motions are developed using a two-stage procedure emphasizing spectral shape in their selection, followed by scaling or matching them to the target, with a modest penalty for matching. Horizontal component motions are applied to the structural model with random components to avoid bias associated with the maximum-component definition of the target spectrum.

Selection Of

Chapter 16 of ASCE 7 governs the selection of ground motions for analysis of new buildings and requires recordings that meet specified criteria. If a sufficient number of recordings cannot be found, it allows the use of “appropriate simulated ground motions,” but does not provide further guidance. This paper outlines a procedure for generating and selecting a set of “appropriate” hybrid broadband simulations and a comparable set of recordings. Both ground motion sets are used to analyze a building in Berkeley, California, and the predicted structural performance is compared. The structural behavior resulting from recordings and simulations is similar, and most discrepancies are explained by differences in directional properties such as orientation of the maximum spectral response. These results suggest that when simulations meet the criteria outlined for recordings in ASCE 7 and properties such as directionality are realistically represented, simulations provide useful results for structural analysis and design.

This paper represents the second part of a series of four publications on response history analysis for new buildings. It specifically focuses on modeling assumptions, consideration of important effects in the analysis, and interpretation of analysis results via global and local acceptance criteria. A statistical basis for development of both force- and deformation-controlled acceptance criteria consistent with the collapse probability goals of ASCE/SEI 7 is illustrated. More explicit sub-classifications of force- and deformation-controlled actions are proposed within the statistical framework. Additional philosophical discussion and simple probabilistic arguments are presented on the topic of consideration of unacceptable response, and guidance on addressing unacceptable response is given. Similarities and differences between the new requirements and those in other performance-based design guidelines are also enumerated.

Selection Of

This paper represents the third part of a series of four publications on response history analysis for new buildings. Three real-building examples designed to a prior version of the building code are chosen, having a range of target spectrum characteristics, tectonic settings, and structural systems to test the new procedure and document its appropriate implementation. This paper describes the process of determining both MCER spectra and scenario spectra for all three examples. It explores selection of appropriate recorded ground motions and the procedure for scaling and spectrally matching to a maximum direction spectrum. Global results such as drift and treatment of unacceptable response, and local results such as force-and deformation-controlled acceptance criteria checks, are shown for each example. Practical guidance is given on implementing response history analysis for engineers employing the new Chapter 16.

The accuracy of several assumptions made when developing the methodology for nonlinear response history analysis of Chapter 16 of ASCE/SEI 7 is investigated. The major findings of this work include: (1) Modeling the gravity system's lateral influence can have a significant effect on system behavior, but it is generally conservative to neglect its contribution. (2) Exclusion of a residual drift check is acceptable when collapse prevention is the primary objective. (3) Spectrally matched ground motions should cautiously be used for near-field sites. (4) The effects of nonlinear accidental torsion can be influential, and should be considered for the analysis of torsionally irregular buildings. (5) When analyzed using FEMA P-695, a structure designed per ASCE/SEI 7 Chapter 16 may have a probability of collapse that is different than the target value associated with the system's risk category.

This manuscript describes a subset of CyberShake numerically simulated ground motions that were selected and vetted for use in engineering response-history analyses. Ground motions were selected that have seismological properties and response spectra representative of conditions in the Los Angeles area, based on disaggregation of seismic hazard. Ground motions were selected from millions of available time series and were reviewed to confirm their suitability for response-history analysis. The processes used to select the time series, the characteristics of the resulting data, and the provided documentation are described in this article. The resulting data and documentation are available electronically.

This paper presents the development of synthetic ground motion at specific sites in Yogyakarta town. In the 2019 Indonesian Seismic Code [1] provides an alternative method in the analysis of building structures by applying the dynamic time history analysis. At least 11-pairs of earthquake recordings must be used in the analysis. Synthetic ground motion utilizing the Method of Probability Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) was used in this study. A selected site in Yogyakarta town was chosen as a pilot study considering that there were many fatalities and building damage caused by the 2006 Yogyakarta earthquake. The Uniform Hazard Spectra (UHS) based on the shallow crustal earthquake source is higher than the Megathrust. The risk targeted spectrum demand MCEr has been considered, which on average 12.3% greater than the UHS. The synthetic ground motions (SGM) are accordingly based on the shallow crustal earthquakes. The dominant magnitude and distance are MD = 6.5 and RD = 14.5 km. They show that the contribution of the Opak River fault to the hazard in Yogyakarta town is very dominant because the distance is very close. Based on the obtained MD and RD, spectral matching, and testing significant duration D595, the 12-synthetic ground motions were successfully developed.

Abstract. The present paper investigates the influence of the orientation of recorded horizontal ground motion components on the longitudinal reinforcement of R/C frame elements within the context of linear response history analysis. For this purpose, three single-story buildings are analyzed and designed for 13 recorded bi-directional ground motions applied along the horizontal structural axes. The analysis and design is performed for several orientations of the recording angle of the horizontal seismic components. For each orientation the longitudinal reinforcement at all critical cross sections is calculated using four methods of selecting the set of internal forces needed to compute the required reinforcement. The results show that the reinforcement calculated by three of the applied methods is significantly affected by the orientation of the recording angle of ground motion, while the fourth one leads to results which are independent of the orientation of the recording angle.
