Direct Displacement Based Design of Reinforced Concrete Elevated Water Tanks Frame Staging
Elevated water tanks supported by the reinforced concrete (RC) Staging are classified as inverted pendulum structures. These are considered as structures of high post-earthquake importance and should remain functional after the seismic events. National codes of various countries recommend Force-Based Design (FBD) procedure for water tank staging, which does not ensure nonlinear performance leve...
متن کاملGeneration of Elastic as well as Inelastic Design Spectra Compatible Accelerogram Using Time- Frequency Analysis
A new methodology is proposed to simulate accelerogram which is compatible to both linear and nonlinear design spectra. For this purpose, a wavelet-based parametric characterization of earthquake accelerogram is adopted and the parameters are optimized to tune its non-stationary features. A modified form of L-P basis is considered for wavelet transform which has the unique feature to decompose ...
متن کاملDirect Fully Stressed Design for Displacement Constraints
1. Abstract This paper presents a new fully stressed design method for the solution of the general weight optimization problem applicable to determinate trusses subject to displacement constraints. Fully stressed design (FSD) has been a popular method to perform structural optimization when only stress constraints are considered. It is attractive because it reaches the optimal design following ...
متن کاملTwo Important Issues Relevant to Torsional Response of Asymmetric 8-Story RC BuildingDesigned with Direct Displacement based Design Approach
Direct displacement based design (DDBD) is a conceptual framework that directly design a structure to achieve an expected performance level under specified seismic intensity. In this study, two important issues relevant to torsional response of mass eccentric 8-story RC building designed with DDBD approach are investigated. These issues are including the effects of unbalanced mass distribution ...
متن کاملDisplacement–Based Seismic Design of Structures
The concept of designing structures to achieve a specified performance limit state defined by strain or drift limits was first introduced, in New Zealand, in 1993. Over the following years, and in particular the past five years, an intense coordinated research effort has been underway in Europe and the USA to develop the concept to the stage where it is a viable and logical alternative to curre...
