This paper presents the original method of controlled building damage
mechanisms based on Nonlinear Static Pushover Analysis (NSPA-DMBD). The
optimal building damage mechanism is determined based on the solution of the
Capacity Design Method (CDM), and the response of the building is considered
in incremental situations. The development of damage mechanism of a system in
such incremental situations is being controlled on the strain level,
examining the relationship of current and limit strains in concrete and
reinforcement steel. Since the procedure of the system damage mechanism
analysis according to the NSPA-DMBD method is being iteratively implemented
and designing checked after the strain reaches the limit, for this analysis a
term Iterative-Interactive Design (IID) has been introduced. By selecting,
monitoring and controlling the optimal damage mechanism of the system and by
developed NSPA-DMBD method, damage mechanism of the building is being
controlled and the level of resistance to an early collapse is being
increased.
