Shear wall systems are the most commonly used lateral-load resisting systems in high-rise buildings. The building of nonlinear dynamic analysis model is the basis for calculating earthquake response. The work further investigates several nonlinear dynamic analysis models at home and abroad for RC shear wall. Classified and brief comments about the existing drawbacks of these models are conducted. Hysteretic rules, relative parameters and the applicability of these models are also discussed in detail. Lastly, some useful suggestions are proposed for the further research.

The seismic performance of ordinary reinforced concrete shear walls, that are commonly used in high-rise residential buildings in Korea (h < 60 m), but are prohibited for tall buildings (h ≥ 60 m), is evaluated in this research project within the framework of collapse probability. Three bidimensional analytical models comprised of both coupled and uncoupled shear walls exceeding 60 m in height were designed using nonlinear dynamic analysis in accordance with Korean performance-based seismic design guidelines. Seismic design based on nonlinear dynamic analysis was performed using different shear force amplification factors in order to determine an appropriate factor. Then, an incremental dynamic analysis was performed to evaluate collapse fragility in accordance with the (Federal Emergency Management Agency) FEMA P695 procedure. Four engineering demand parameters including inter-story drift, plastic hinge rotation angle, concrete compressive strain and shear force were introduced to investigate the collapse probability of the designed analytical models. For all analytical models, flexural failure was the primary failure mode but shear force amplification factors played an important role in order to meet the requirement on collapse probability. High-rise ordinary reinforced concrete shear walls designed using seven pairs of ground motion components and a shear force amplification factor ≥ 1.2 were adequate to satisfy the criteria on collapse probability and the collapse margin ratio prescribed in FEMA P695.

Various seismic analysis methods are being used to predict the response of structures to earthquakes. Although nonlinear dynamic analysis (NDA) is considered an ideal method to represent the most realistic behavior of a structure among these various methods, correct results can be derived only when the analysis model is carefully developed by a knowledgeable person. It is particularly important to properly implement the behavior characteristics depending on the reversed cyclic load in the NDA of a building made of reinforced concrete (RC) moment frames. This study evaluated the hysteresis model suitable for NDA of existing RC moment frames, and 45 analysis models were reviewed, in which the pivot, concrete, and Takeda hysteresis models were applied differently to beams and columns. The pivot model was evaluated as the most reliable hysteresis model for each structural member by comparing and analyzing not only the responses of the entire frame but also the responses of column and beam members focusing on energy dissipation. However, this model can have practical limitations in that the parameters associated with the reinforcement detailing and applied loads need to be defined in detail. The analysis model applying Takeda to the beam, which predicted the average response at a reliable level compared to the reference model, was identified as a practical alternative when it is difficult to apply the pivot model to all frame members.

Abstract In this paper, the seismic behavior of existing reinforced concrete tall building is investigated by the linear and nonlinear dynamic analysis. The selected reinforced concrete structure was designed according to “Turkey Seismic Code-2007” (TEC-2007). A typical 41 story reinforced concrete building is designed. Turkey Building Earthquake Code-2018 (TBEC-2018) is utilized for evaluating the seismic performance of the selected building. Natural earthquake acceleration record selected and adjusted for compatibility with the adopted design spectrum, is used. A performance analysis according to the TBEC-2018 in a 41-story reinforced concrete shear wall-framed structure in Istanbul where active fault lines are located. The selected reinforced concrete shear wall unsymmetrical plan tall building is located in Istanbul, Turkey. The performance goals of the reinforced concrete shear wall structure are evaluated by applying procedures of the TBEC-2018 and nonlinear dynamic analysis. According to the Code, the reinforced concrete shear wall building is not expected to satisfy life safety performance levels under design earthquake.

This study combines specific high-rise shear wall residential projects with the Revit to demonstrate BIM application processes. The use of R-Star CAD may help to realize the link barrier of the building information model and the structural analysis software PKPM. Sequentially, the information supplement of the structural analysis model is completed by extracting the structural information with the Revit secondary development. By the collaborative design platform based on BIM technology, the paper examines the collision check of structural model, conducts collision analysis on other professional models and modifies the design scheme for conflict points. After the statistics of material usage, an optimized design is proposed. The findings of this paper could contribute to provide some reference for the specific application of BIM in structural design and realize the application of BIM technology in the process of building structure design.
