The lateral load-resisting system of high-rise buildings in regions of low and moderate seismicity and strong wind such as the typhoon in the Korean peninsula considers the wind load as the governed lateral force so that the practical structural engineer tends to skip the evaluation against the seismic load. This study is to investigate wind-designed steel diagrid buildings located in these regions and check the possibility of the elastic design of them out. To this end, first, the diagrid high-rise buildings were designed to satisfy the wind serviceability criteria specified in KBC 2016. Then, the response spectrum analyses were performed under various slenderness ratio and wind exposures. The analyses demonstrated the good seismic performance of these wind-designed diagrid high-rise buildings because of the significant over-strength induced by the lateral load-resisting system of high-rise buildings. Also, the analysis results showed that the elastic seismic design process of some diagrid high-rise buildings may be accepted based on slenderness ratios in all wind exposures.

A controlled spine frame system consists of moment frames and spine frames with concentrated energy-dissipating members. This system guarantees the continuous usability of buildings against Japanese Level-2 earthquake events (similar to DBE events in California), and the authors have confirmed its excellent performance in preventing damage concentration in low-rise buildings. This study further investigates the effect of diverse structural properties on the seismic performance of controlled spine frames applied in high-rise buildings. The effect of building height, yield drift of dampers, spine-to-moment frame stiffness ratio, and damper-to-moment frame stiffness ratio are illustrated in detail, and optimal values are discussed. Also, a segmented spine frame system is proposed for high-rise buildings. The simple evaluation procedure proposed by the authors for low-rise buildings, based on equivalent linearization techniques and response spectrum analyses, was modified to include higher-mode effects for high-rise buildings based on modal analysis. The modified evaluation method was verified by modal pushover and time-history analyses.

Modular Structures

The construction industry has tried out a variety of trends in its field to bring out innovative, economic, efficient and sustainable infrastructure to meet the growing demand. One such development is the off-site manufactured modular steel buildings. The practice reduces the construction period as well as reduces wastage of resources. It was extensively used for low rise structures earlier, but due to increasing urban construction demand the practice is preferred nowadays in high rise structures too. For the high rise structures the lateral stability needed to be well looked into as there may arise a mass irregularity, structural irregularity, discontinuity etc. Psychological acceptance of such construction practice by the public is also not assured as they are not well aware of the advantages and use of the practice. And hence there is a need to conduct detailed and thorough investigation on its contradiction part to seismic performance. The modular construction consists of different structural systems and load transferring mechanisms. The integration of many materials and elements to modular structures are also discussed in various papers. But regarding lateral force resistance of its structural and non-structural components only limited research is conducted. Further research is required. The aim of the study is to provide a collective critical review on individual units or components of the structural system and their effects contributing to seismic resistance.

Concentrically Braced

The seismic performance of single-storey steel buildings, with concentrically braced frames and a roof diaphragm that acts structurally, is evaluated. The buildings are designed in accordance with the National Building Code of Canada 1995 and CSA Standard S16.1-94 for five seismic zones in western Canada with seismicities ranging from low to high. Only frames designed with a force modification factor of 1.5 are considered. Analytical models of the building are developed, which consider the nonlinear seismic behaviour of the concentrically braced frame, the strength and stiffness contributions of the cladding, and the flexibility, strength, and distributed mass of the roof diaphragm. The seismic response of the models is assessed by means of a linear static analysis, a response spectrum analysis, a nonlinear static or "pushover" analysis, and nonlinear dynamic time history analyses. The results indicate that current design procedures provide a reasonable estimate of the drift and brace ductility demand, but do not ensure that yielding is restricted to the braces. Moreover, in moderate and high seismic zones, the roof diaphragm responds inelastically and brace connections are overloaded. Recommendations are made to improve the seismic performance of such buildings.Key words: analyses, concentrically braced frame, dynamic, earthquake, flexible diaphragm, low-rise, nonlinear, seismic design, steel.

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.
