Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Braced frames are a common seismic lateral force resisting system used in steel structure. Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) are a relatively new lateral force resisting system developed to resist seismic events in a predictable manner. Properly designed and detailed EBFs behave in a ductile manner through shear or flexural yielding of a link element. The link is created through brace eccentricity with either the column centerlines or the beam midpoint. The ductile yielding produces wide, balanced hysteresis loops, indicating excellent energy dissipation, which is required for high seismic events. This report explains the underlying research of the behavior of EBFs and details the seismic specification used in design. The design process of an EBF is described in detail with design calculations for a 2- and 5-story structure. The design process is from the AISC 341-10 Seismic Provisions for Structural Steel Buildings with the gravity and lateral loads calculated according to ASCE 7-10 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures. Seismic loads are calculated using the Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure. The final member sizes of the 2-story EBF are compared to the results of a study by Eric Grusenmeyer (2012). The results of the parametric study are discussed in detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel frames are used in many commercial high-rise buildings, as well as industrial structures, such as ore mines and oilrigs. Enabling construction of ever lighter and safer structures, steel frames have become an important topic for engineers. This book, split into two parts covering advanced analysis and advanced design of steel frames, guides the reader from a broad array of frame elements through to advanced design methods such as deterministic, reliability, and system reliability design approaches. This book connects reliability evaluation of structural systems to advanced analysis of steel frames, and ensures that the steel frame design described is founded on system reliability. Important features of the this book include: fundamental equations governing the elastic and elasto-plastic equilibrium of beam, sheer-beam, column, joint-panel, and brace elements for steel frames; analysis of elastic buckling, elasto-plastic capacity and earthquake-excited behaviour of steel frames; background knowledge of more precise analysis and safer design of steel frames against gravity and wind, as well as key discussions on seismic analysis. theoretical treatments, followed by numerous examples and applications; a review of the evolution of structural design approaches, and reliability-based advanced analysis, followed by the methods and procedures for how to establish practical design formula. Advanced Design and Analysis of Steel Frames provides students, researchers, and engineers with an integrated examination of this core civil and structural engineering topic. The logical treatment of both advanced analysis followed by advanced design makes this an invaluable reference tool, comprising of reviews, methods, procedures, examples, and applications of steel frames in one complete volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been a shift in typical steel construction from moment frames to concentrically braced frames for use in regions of high seismic risk in the United States. Given the large increase in popularity, it is surprising to find that large-scale testing of subassemblages or components of special concentric braced frames is sparse, particularly with frames containing conventional buckling braces and modern construction details. Rigorous analytical modeling of structures with proportions and details typical to those used in concentrically braced frames today are also limited. Test validated analytical models are paramount to adequately predict and assess performance of these structures when subjected to severe ground shaking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The catastrophic earthquakes of the last decades (Mexico City, 1985; Loma Prieta, 1989; Northridge, 1994; Kobe, 1995) have seriously undermined there putation of steel structures, which in the past represented the most suitable solution for seismic resistant structures. Even if in very few cases, the performance of steel joints and members was unexpectedly bad, showing that it was due to some lacks in the current design concept. As a consequence of the lessons learned from the above dramatic events, many progress has been recently achieved in the conception, design and construction, by introducing the new deals of the performance based design, including the differentiation of earthquaketypes and considering all factor influencing the steel structure behaviour under strong ground motions. In this scenario, the aim of the book is to transfer the most recent achievements into practical rules for a safe design of seismic resistant steel structures. The seven Chapters cover the basic principles and design criteria for seismic resistant steel structures, which are applied to the main structural typologies, like moment resistant frames, braced frames and composite structures with particular reference to connections and details.

Download or read book Performance of Seismically Deficient Existing Braced Steel Frame Structures With Flexible Diaphragms in Halifax written by Alicia Gallagher and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrically braced frames (CBFs) have been one of the fundamental structural systems for lateral force resistance chosen by designers for low-rise steel construction since the early part of the twentieth century. CBFs designed using the building codes and standards of the 1960s were designed using the principle that they remained in the linearly elastic range. The current design philosophy of the 2010 National Building Code of Canada (NBCC) and CSA-S16-09 is based on the principles of capacity design and recognises the cyclic inelastic behaviour of CBFs. Since no detailing or design requirements for an inelastic seismic response were included in structures designed with past building codes, these structures are likely to exhibit seismic deficiences, including lack of lateral resistance and insufficient ductility. Guidelines for evaluating the performance of CBFs are required in order to provide recommendations for seismic evaluation and rehabilitation for such existing buildings for future building codes. The behaviour of one-storey steel structures built with the 1965 National Building Code of Canada (NRCC 1965) and CSA-S16-65 (CSA 1965) under current building code standards for seismic design was studied in order to aid in establishing such guidelines. The response of a series of sixteen one-storey buildings with varying aspect ratios and heights was studied, subjected to ten artificial and ten historical earthquake ground motions. The nonlinear seismic behaviour of the CBFs was determined using an analytic Open Sees, Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulatuion (OpenSees 201), model for nonlinear time history dynamic analysis, including drift and ductility demands on the braces. The intended performance level in the design earthquakes, as well as the acceptance criteria used in the braced frame analysis were established using FEMA P695 (FEMA 2009) criteria. In general, although acceptable performance was not acheived in all cases, the one-storey stee structures built with the 1965 National Building Code of Canada, on average, performed well, for the seven failure criteria outlined in this study.

Download or read book The Effectiveness of Seismically Designed Steel Framing Systems Subjected to Blast Loading written by Amy Coffield and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The effectiveness of three different framing systems for seismically designed steel structures subjected to blast loading is investigated. They are: a moment resisting frame (MRF), a concentrically braced frame (CBF) and an eccentrically braced frame (EBF). The blast loads are assumed to be unconfined, free air burst detonated 15 ft from one of the center columns. The structures are modeled and analyzed using the Applied Element Method, which allows the structure to be evaluated during and through failure. Failure modes are investigated through a plastic hinge analysis and member failure comparison. Also, a global response analysis is observed through comparison of roof deflections and accelerations. The impact of structural geometric irregularity is also investigated. Vertical setback and horizontal reentrant corner irregularities are considered for two different blast locations. Finally, the modification to a MRF structure required to prevent any member failure are found as well as the cost of making the structures more blast resistant. A conclusion of this research is that braced frames provide a higher level of resistance to blast loading. Both the CBF and EBF had a smaller number of failed members and plastic hinges compared to the MRF. They also had smaller roof deflection and acceleration. The CBF yielded the fewest number of plastic hinges but the EBF had a slightly fewer number of failed members for the regular structures. Another conclusion of this research is that geometric irregularity has an impact on the response of a structure subjected to blast loading. All three structure types performed better when the source of the blast was on the side of the setback or reentrant corner. This has practical significance in architectural design, placement, and orientation of a high-rise building structure in terms of minimizing its potential damage to blast loading. Finally, it was concluded that by increasing the moment capacity of the perimeter beams of the first four stories by 420% in the weak axis and 100% in the strong axis and 50% in both axes of the columns on the structural face closest to the blast source in the seismically designed moment resisting frame, member failure could be avoided. The modifications increase the material cost of the structure by only 4.5%. Therefore, if an area in the structure can be identified as a potential threat location, it would be practical to design those members to resist blast loads.
