eet | 3 Earthquake Analysis of Linear Systems PREVIEW In this chapter procedures for cnrthauake analysis of sractores, idealized as humped mass systems, are developed. The presentation is organized in two pars, Part A is concerned ‘with the calculation of structural response as a function of time when the system is subjected to a given ground acceleration ii(t). This response history analysis (RHA) procedure is frst presented for an arbitrary stractural configuration and subsequently specialized for malstory buildings wih a symmetric plan, and for moltistory buildings with an unsymmetric plan. A brief discussion ofthe torsional response of symmeti plan buildings is also included, Part A is devoted mainly to a single component of {round motion, typically one of the horizontal components. Combining the stictral re- sponses determined from such independent analyses for each excitation component gives the response of linear systems to mufiple-component excitation, Also developed is 8 procedure to analyze the response ofa structure subjected to differen prescribed motions tt ils various supports. Part A ends with a brief section on the principal requirements thatthe structural idealization must satisfy so that the response of a structure predicted by analysis agrees satisfactorily with that recorded during an earthquake. Part B is concerned with procedures to compute the peak response of a structure during an eartaquake directly fom the earthquake response (or design) spectrum withoat the need for response history analysis of the strocture. Known 8 response spectrum analysis (RSA), this procedure is not an exact predictor of peak response, but it provides fn estimate that is suficently accurate fr strctoral design applications. The procedure is first presented for an arbitrary structural configuration and then specialized for mulistory buildings. 487 468 Earthquake Analysis of Linear Systems Chap. 13, PART A: RESPONSE HISTORY ANALYSIS 13.1 MODAL ANALYSIS. In this section we develop the modal analysis procedure to determine the response of a structure (0 earthquake-induced ground motion ii,(¢), identical at all support points of the structure, 13.1.1 Equations of Motion ‘The differential equations (9.4.8) governing the response of an MDF system to earthquake induced ground motion are repeated: mii + c+ ku = pag) a3.L) where Pen(@) = ~My. (13.1.2) ‘The mass and stiffness matrices, m and k, and the influence vector ¢ are determined by the methods of Chapter 9. The damping matrix e would not be needed in modal analysis of earthquake response; instead, modal damping ratios suffice and their numerical values can be estimated as discussed in Chapter 11. The modal analysis procedure developed in Chapter 12 to solve Eq, (12.4.1) is applicable to the solution of Eq, (13.1.1). 13.1.2 Modal Expansion of Displacements and Forces ‘The displacement w of an N-DOF system can be expressed, as in Eq, (12.3.2), as the superposition of the modal contributions: 10 =D oaanlt) (13.13) ‘The spatial distribution of the effective earthquoke forces puy(t) is defined by 5 = me. This force distribution can be expanded as a summation of modal inertia force distributions s, (Section 12.8): Lime, 3.14) T= Lys ofm Mh = ems, 3.15) Equation (13.1.5) for the coetcient, can be derived by premeltiplying both sides of Eq.

The conbution of the mh mode othe excation vector me is = Pang 13.1.6) which is independent of how the modes are normalized. Sec, 18.1 Modal Analysis 469 13.1.3 Modal Equations Equation (12.4.6) is speciatized for earthquake excitation by replacing p(t) in Eq, (12.3.4) by pan(t) to obtain Gn + Batondn + ede = —Prilg(t) 3.1.7) ‘The solution ga(t) can readily be obtained by comparing Eq, (13.1,7) to the equation fof motion for the nth-mode SDF system, an SDF system with vibration properties— natural frequency a and damping ratio {of the nth mode of the MDF system.

The second of these procedures, using equivalent static forces, is preferred in earthquake analysis because it facilitates comparison of dynamic analysis procedures with the earthquake design forces specified in building codes (Chapter 21). Equation (12.6.2) defines the equivalent static forces associated with the nth-mode response, where qa() is given by Eg. (13.1.9). Putting these equations together and using s, (Eg, (13.1.6)} leads to fl) = Sent) 3...) ‘where, similar to Bq. (64.3), Anlt) = 05Dq(0) (13.1.1) ‘The equivalent static forces fy(t) are the product of two quantities: (1) the nth-mode contribution s, to the spatial distribution mu of Per(), and (2) the pseudo-acceleration response of the nth-mode SDF system 10 iig(. The nth-mode contribution ra(t) to any response quantity r(¢) is determined by static analysis of the structure subjected to external forces f,(f), As in Section 12.9, the ‘modal static response rt denotes the static value of r due to extemal forces sy; this may 470 Earthquake Analysis of Linear Systoms Chap. 13, be positive or negative and is independent of how the mode is normalized. ‘Then tall) = rBAalO (3.1.13) Equation (13.1.13) also applies to the displacement response, although its derivation had been motivated by the desire to compute forecs from the displacements, The static displacements due to forces s, satisfy ku = s,..

Thus the nodal displacements are w » Wt) = Dual) = YPadeDalt) (3.1.15) ‘wherein Eq. (13.1.10) has been substituted for uy(?). Using Eq.

For the design spectra of Fig. 693, A= ig for Ty < 4h s00. If this period range includes the natural periods of modes Nj + 1 10'N, then Eq, (131.16) can be expressed os r= Soeao~ie (x = ) 3.1.17) where r* is the static value of r due to external forces $ and ‘This solution is in two parts: the first term is the dynamic response considering the first ‘Ng modes and the second is the static response of the higher modes. Equation (13.1.17) is the static correction method and can be derived following Section 12.12. Sec. 131 Modal Analysis an 13.1.6 Interpretation of Modal Analysis In the first phase of this dynamic analysis procedure, the vibration properties—natural frequencies and modes—o the structure are computed and the force distribution vector mx is expanded into its modal components 5,. The rest of the analysis procedure is shown schematically in Fig. 13.1.1 to emphasize the underlying concepts. The contri- bution of the nth mode to the dynamic response is obtained by multiplying the results of two analyses: (1) static analysis of the structure with applied forces s,, and (2) dy- namic analysis of the mth-mode SDF system excited by iig(t). Thus modal analysis requires static analysis of the structure for NW sets of forces: 8), = 1,2,....Ns and dynamic analysis of N different SDF systems.

Equation (13.2.13) implies that the total mass m of a one-story system is effee- tive in producing the base shear. This is so because the mass and hence the equivalent static foree are concentrated at one location, the roof. In contrast, only a portion of the mass of a multistory building is effective in producing the base shear due to the rnth mode because the building mass is distributed among the various floor levels and the equivalent static forces vary over the height as mjd)... This portion depends on the distribution of the mass of the building over its height and on the shape of the mode, as indicated by Eqs. (13.2.9a) and (13.2.3), The sum of the effective modal masses Mz ovec all the modes is equal to the total mass of the building (see Deriva- veo Sid yt Ma ie MAK) ‘ +o |} ks —L_e tal — Sat —— Mall a) Mra Mont) @ b) Figure 132.3 (9 Equivalent static forces and base shear fn he mth mode; () one-story system wih effective modal mass and effective mada height Sec. 13.2 Multstory Buildings with Symmetric Plan 483 tion 13.1) Fut =m) (3.2.14 ‘Now we compare the base overtuningtmoment equations for malsory and one- story systems, The base overturning moment ina muliory balling de oi mth pode is obtained by specializing Eq.

Thus his called the base-moment effective modal height on, for brevity, effective madal height. It may also be interpreted as the height of the resultant of the forces 8, (Fig. 13.2.2a) or of the forces f(t) Fig. 13.2.3). Equation (13.2.16) implies thatthe total height h of the one-story system is effective in producing the base overtuming moment. This is so because the mass of the structare and hence the equivalent static force is concentrated at height h above the base. In contrast, the effective mada! height his less than the total height of the building because the lumped masses and hence the equivalent static forces are located at the various floor levels; A depends on the distribution of the mass over the height of the building and on the shape of the mode (Eqs.

The results presented are accompanied by interpretive com- ‘ments that should assist us in developing an understanding of the response behavior of multistory buildings. ‘System properties. The lumped mass m) 100 kipsig at each floor, the lateral stiffness of each story is kj = k = 31.54 kipsfin., and the height of each story is 12 ft. The damping ratio for all natural modes is 4 = 5%, The mass matrix m, stiffness matrix k, natural frequencies, and natural modes of this system were presented in Section 12.8. For the given k and m, the natural periods are T, = 2.0, 0.6852, 0.4346, 0.3383, and 0.2966 sec. (These natural periods, which are much longer than for typical five-story buildings, were chosen to accentuate the contributions of the second through fifth modes to the structural response.) ‘Thus steps 1 to 3 of the analysis procedure (Section 13.2.4) have already been completed.

The ground acceleration ip(¢) is defined by its numer- ical values at time instants equally spaced at every Ar. This time step Ar = 0.01 sec is chosen to be small enough to define i,(1) accurately and to determine accurately the response of SDF systems with natural periods 7,, the shortest of which is 0.2966 sec. Response of SDF systems. The deformation response D,() of the nth-mode SDF system with natural period 7, and damping ratio g, to the ground motion is de- termined (step 5b of Section 13.2.4). The time-stepping linear acceleration method (Chapter 5) was implemented to obtain discrete values of D, at every At. For conve- nicnce, however, we continue to denote these discrete values as D,({). At each time instant the pseudo-acceleration is calculated from A,(@) = @2D,(). These computations are implemented for the SDF systems corresponding to each of the five modes of the structure, and the results are presented in Fig. 13.2.6. =5h seh S00. 13.2 Mullistory Buildings with Symmetric Plan 487 igo eT 2 3 4 5 igure 1825 Eifectve medal mies and ffectve oda eh é 5378 ‘i cass re 0 0 Pa 6 4 6) 2583 1) 0.5628 2 O AeA ° Lealimoa nein 6 4 6 ° 8 1 3 | ptm ot + afliiyratomiente ws d im 07837 Sogn, i 4 OO rn ° 6 1 6 1 5 oT eee a vif 4 “1? 0758s 5 3 10 15 6 3 10 Time, see Time, see Figure 132 Displecement Dy(0) and pseudo-seceleraton Aq(t) responses of modal SDF ‘tens. As seen in Chapter 6, the peak values of D,(f) and A,(t), noted in Fig. 13.2.6, ‘can be determined direetly from the response spectrum for the ground motion, This fact ‘will enable us to determine the peak value of the nth-mode contribution to any response ‘quantity directly from the response spectrum. Part B of this chapter is devoted to this development. 488, Earthquake Analysis of Linear Systems Chap. 13. Modal responses. Step Sc of Section 13.24 is implemented to determine the contribution of the mth mode to selected response quantities: Vp, Vs, Moe, and us. The ‘modal static responses (Table 13.2.3) are multiplied by Ay (Fig. 13.2.6) at each time step to obtain the results presented in Figs. 13.2.7 and 13.2.8. Observe that the contribution of the nth mode to every response quantity attains its peak Value at the same time as Ani) does, Figures 13.2.7 and 13.28 give us a first impression of the relative values of the response contributions of the different modes. The modal expansion of the excitation vector (Fig. 13.2.4) had suggested that the response will be largest in the fundamental smode and will tend to decrease in the higher modes. Such isthe case in this example for roof displacement, base shear, and base overturning moment but not for the fifth-story shear. How the relative modal responses depend on the response quantity and on the building properties is discussed in Chapter 18. £0469 40. 17.211 Mode 1 Lp hanes op RR AAA Pee a0! 78) casa 40) 2 0 YAN AAAAAR AAA RAA 40) 20.382 40) 3 2 9.867 ao Sag) ase “0 4 ——— eee a5 aoa 1 oy a 0 O58 Tar “0 sate oH 35217 Tot oan! 5 3 ry is 6 5 0 is Time see Time, ee Figure 1827 Base scar and Aithstory shear: modal conbutions, Vig) sd Ven) id tot responses, Ys) and VC.

In this particular example, the contribution of the fourth and fifth modes could be neglected; the results would still be accurate enough for use in structural design. How many modes should be included depends on the earthquake ground motion and building properties. This issue is addressed in Chapter 18 13.2.7 Example: Four-Story Frame with an Appendage ‘This section is concemed with the earthquake analysis and response of a five-story shear frame that as a very light and flexible fifth story.
