The EBF structural system is identified by the use of bracing and link beams as components that work to receive lateral seismic loads. The position of the link beam makes the EBF system have several choices of bracing configuration; D-Braces, Split K-Braces, V-Braces, Split K & Inverted Split K-Braces, Inverted Y-Braces. Structural analysis was carried out on a 10-story building model for the EBF system with different type of bracing configurations using the ETABS software. All models analyzed according to Indonesian Code (SNI 1729:2015 and SNI 1726:2019) to obtain the structural element. Seismic analysis uses the response spectrum analysis method to obtain the structural response parameters in the EBF system. Result of the analysis for all of bracing configuration are shown that Split K-Braces model has the best response parameters when compared to the MRF system. The  lowest value for the parameter is owned by Inverted Y-Braces, although overall it is still larger than the MRF system. The bracing configuration greatly affects the response of EBF system due to the behavior that occurs in the link beam, therefore the selection for type of bracing configuration is also important in the EBF system structure design.

Short Link

Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF) is one of several types of braces that can be used in steel building. EBF has a good stiffness and ductility to withstand earthquake load. In EBF itself there are 3 types of links, namely: Long Link, Intermediate Link, and Short Link. Meanwhile, MRF of Moment resisting Frame is a structural system where the beams and columns are connected rigidly. MRF has a good ductility in accepting load even it has no lateral braces installed. In this research the Dafam Lotus Jember hotel consisting of 10 floors with total height of 33,6 m is modeled as a MRF system structure and steel structure equipped with EBF short link. The objective of this research is to compare the effectiveness of EBF and MRF in terms of displacement, axial force, shear force, and moment occurring in buildings. The modeling results show that EBF with short link has smaller displacement value compared to MRF. The difference between the two is 86,99%. In terms of axial force, shear force, and moment, EBF has smaller values than MRF. The differences are 79,76%, 53,91%, and 10,48% respectively. These results indicate that EBF has better capacity compared to MRF. Indonesia merupakan negara yang memiliki tingkat intensitas kegempaan yang tinggi. Ini menjadikan Indonesia tidak terhindarkan dari dampak negatif yang akan ditimbulkan oleh gempa bumi, yaitu menyebabkan kerusakan insfrastruktur fisik. Peraturan gempa SNI 03-1726-2012 membahas mengenai bresing sebagai salah satu alternatif yang dapat digunakan untuk menangani masalah gempa. Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF) adalah salah satu jenis bresing yang memiliki kekakuan dan daktilitas yang baik jika dibandingkan dengan Concentrically Braced Frame (CBF) yang hanya memiliki kekakuan yang baik. Selain itu terdapat pula Moment Resisting Frame (MRF) yaitu salah satu sistem struktur yang memiliki sifat daktail. Melihat permasalahan yang ada, maka pembahasan ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan efektivitas dari EBF menggunakan short link dengan MRF apabila diaplikasikan pada bangunan Hotel Dafam Lotus Jember 10 lantai yang memiliki tinggi 33,6 m. Adapun efektivitas yang dibadingkan disini adalah nilai story displacement dan gaya dalam (momen, gaya geser, dan gaya aksial) yang terjadi. Hasil analisa dengan bantuan program analisa struktur menunjukkan bahwa EBF menggunakan short link memiliki nilai yang lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan MRF dalam menerima beban yang bekerja. Dari segi story displacement, selisih prosentasenya adalah 86,99% sedangkan untuk gaya dalam yang meliputi momen, gaya geser, dan gaya aksial, selisihnya secara berturut-urut adalah 79,76%, 53,91% dan 10,48%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa EBF menggunakan short link lebih efektif jika dibandingkan dengan MRF.

Response Spectrum Analysis

Considering the structure type of the steel staggered-truss (SST) system, the effect of infilled walls will be major and need to be studied amply, some scientific design regulations need to be found for referrence. Based on two different 3D models considering or ignoring the stiffness of infilled walls (SIW), a numerical investigation is presented on the structural behaviors of the SST system utilizing the finite element 3D simulation analysis soft ware ETABS. The longitudinal structure is asymmetrical due to the SIW, it causes the torsion forces in the building. Comparing to the different results of response spectrum analysis, including storey drift and equivalent base shear under frequent earth quake and rare earth quake, some conclusions were made, including the capacity of the SST system under seismic load and the effect of the SIW for SST system. The increased base shear force factors due to the effect of the SIW were suggested for SST structure design, it is different from the other steel structure types.

Multi-storey buildings tend to get damaged mainly during earthquake. Seismic analysis is a tool for the estimation of structural response in the process of designing earthquake resistant structures and/or retrofitting vulnerable existing structures. The principle purpose of this work is to analyze and design a building with a shear wall and also to find the appropriate position of shear wall that result in maximum resistance towards lateral forces and minimum displacement of the structure. In this study, a G+7 multi-storey building of 15 m ×20 m in plan area has been chosen and modelled using ETABS. The developed model was validated by solving manually and the results were validated in ETABS. Thereafter, 4 different new plans were modelled in ETABS located in the same earthquake zone area. These plans have shear wall concepts are implemented on the building at four different locations. Seismic, vibration and response spectrum analysis were performed on these structures. Salient parameters such as storey stiffness, storey displacement and storey drift were computed using the ETABS model. These were compared with that of the frame having no shear walls. By comparing the results obtained at different shear wall locations, the best plan with the shear wall having minimum lateral storey displacement and maximum stiffness is suggested for this location.

A response spectrum rule for combining the contributions from three orthogonal components of ground motion to the maximum value of a response quantity is presented. This rule, denoted CQC3, is compared to the 30% and 40% rules and the square-root-of-sum-of-squares (SRSS) rule currently specified in many design codes. It is shown that these current rules are special cases of the CQC3 rule, when certain conditions regarding the nature of the ground motion or the structural response are satisfied. Because these conditions are not always satisfied, it is argued that the CQC3 rule should be adopted as a general rule for the multicomponent combination problem. The CQC3 rule additionally offers a simple formula for determining the most critical orientation of the ground motion components for each response quantity of interest. The CQC3 rule is computationally simple and easy to implement in standard dynamic analysis codes.

Seismic Performance Evaluation

The equivalent statistical methods, spectral analysis, and time history analysis are usually offered in the steel structure design regulations. Among these methods, the third one is more accurate; however, it requires more time to align the accelerometers due to a large number of analyses. In the endurance time (ET) method, incremental acceleration functions gradually and uniformly increases over time while their linear and nonlinear response spectra are proportional to the mean of the real seismic spectrum. These functions are used as input functions to analyze the nonlinear time history of structures, and the performance of structures is evaluated based on the maximum length of time they can meet specified performance goals. A three-story steel bending frame with (slotted web) SW and (web unslotted flange) WUF connection is examined through the performance time method in performance-based design. This article aimed at evaluating the seismic performance of these connections in the bending frame through endurance time analysis to predict the structural response in the probabilistic evaluation of the seismic performance of the structures. It is found that the endurance time analysis is justified with the seismic performance of the connections with low computational cost and proper accuracy. The results of comparing both SW and WUF connections indicated that the SW connection prevents the connection welding area from being failed due to transferring the plastic joint into the beam and in an area away from the column face and causes less damage compared to the WUF connection.

Equivalent static, response spectrum and time history analysis are the well-known analysis methods that traditionally proposed. These methods are highly accurate but requires a great deal of time to match accelerations and the number of analyses, in the other words these methods are time consuming methods. Hence recently the structures are investigated using the durability time method, which plays an essential role in reducing the number of analyses that needs to be created; In fact, the durability time method is a new method of seismic analysis that is presented with a minimum number of time histories analysis. In this method the structure is placed under the influence of an increasing dynamic stimulation, structural response has been investigated over time and evaluated according to the corresponding response to different levels of stimulation intensity, strengths and weaknesses, and structural performance. In this study, steel folding frameworks with 5, 10 and 15 floors were investigated under two analytical methods (Time durability and Time histories methods). At first, the frameworks will be exposed under history of Imperial Governor, Kobe and Lumaprita earthquakes and analysis by finite element software ABAQUS. Then, based on the three analytical functions, the durability is investigated and the results are compared with each other. Finally, the behavior of the structures discussion and conclusion. The results show that the durability analysis method for earthquakes with higher intensity and time is more efficient, and for the Time-less earthquakes by time history method parametrically have a parametrical difference of 5%.

An earthquake is a sudden, rapid shaking of the earth caused by the breaking and shifting of rock beneath the earth’s surface. Earthquakes are among the most powerful events on earth, and their results can be terrifying. In0general for0design of tall0buildings both0wind as well0as earthquake0loads need0to be0considered. Governing0criteria for0carrying out0dynamic analyses0for earthquake0loads are different0from wind0loads. However many tall buildings are not so resistant in lateral loads due to earthquake. Reinforced concrete multi-storied buildings in India were for the first time subjected to a strong ground motion shaking in Bhuj earthquake. It has been concluded that the principal reasons of failure may be attributed to soft stories, floating columns, mass irregularities, poor quality of construction materials faulty construction methods, unstable earthquake response, soil and infrastructure, which were determined to cause damage to the attached structure. High-rise buildings are in high demand due to global urbanization and population growth, and high-rise buildings are likely to suffer the most damage from earthquakes. Since earthquake forces are irregular and unnatural in nature, engineering tools need to be sharpened to analyze the structure in the work of these forces. In this study, to understand the behaviour of structure located in seismic zones III for G+15 Multi-Purpose storey building model is considered for study. Performance of frame is studied through Response Spectrum analysis and comparison is made on shear force, storey drift, storey displacement and storey stiffness.

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.

In some areas such as micro-mechanical, ultra-precision machining, nanotechnology, the high-precision positioning and very fine vertical scanning motion are needed urgently. Therefore, the Z-axis micro-displacement driving control technology has become the key technology in these areas. The piezoelectric ceramics actuator and stepper motor were integrated into hybrid linear actuator in Z-axis nanopositioning stage, and this can simplify the structure of the drive system. By calculating the gravity center of the vertical scanning system, and using single counterweight, a new one-arm bridge type structure was built. Appropriate tension and current sensors were also equipped in order to real-time monitor the drive status. It is feasible to balance the weight with this simplified system structure, and also guarantee the driving control accuracy of nanopositioning stage. Besides, in the structural design, the Abbe error can be reduced greatly by placing the stage center, grating ruler and displacement measurement centerline on the same line with grating reading head. The driving travel of nanopositioning stage is 150mm, and driving resolution is 1nm. The designing method introduced gives a scientific method and practical reference for the development of z-axis driving control system.
