7 Forces: Poor Indicators of Damage
8 DESIGN TO ELASTIC ACCELERATION SPECTRA (FORCE-BASED DESIGN) ASSUMPTIONS ARE: Elastic force levels (dependent on initial stiffness) are of prime importance Elastic stiffness is known at the start of design Elastic forces can be reduced by ductility factors, dependent only on material and structural type Maximum transient response is the issue. Residual displacement is irrelevant Displacements are well estimated by elastic response values Safety is increased as strength is increased

13 FORCE-BASED DESIGN ASSUMPTIONS OF SYSTEM DUCTILITY In current force-based design it is assumed that structural systems have a unique ductility capacity, and hence a unique force-reduction factor e.g. Concrete Frame Building: R µ = 6 (depends on country) Concrete Wall Building: R µ = 4 (::) Concrete Bridge: R µ = 3 (::)
14 CONSIDER BRIDGE COLUMNS OF DIFFERENT HEIGHTS y = φ y H 2 / 3 p = φ p L p H H=3m H=8m y + p φ plp µ = = 1+ 3 φ H y y L P = 0.08H+0.022d b f y (a) Squat Column,µ =9.4 (b) Slender Column,µ =5.1 (P/f cag=0.1, Rebar = 2% long., 0.6% transverse

16 Direct Displacement-Based Design: What s Different? Design for a target damage level. Use displacement spectra to define hazard. Consider energy dissipation via equivalent viscous damping. Start with target displacement end with required strength and stiffness.

19 Seismicity Outline Time histories Response Spectra Seismic Input for DDBD

22 KOBE, 1995, Mw=6.9 (1 km) ACCELEROGRAM 0.8 Acceleration (xg) (c) Kobe Earthquake, M W =6.9, Time (sec) 0.8g

24 Time History Observations Acceleration time histories give an incomplete picture of an EQ Frequency content may be influenced by distance to source Displacement time histories expose large differences between earthquakes of comparatively similar PGAs
25 ARS and DRS of Selected Records Spectral acceleration (xg) Spectral acceleration (xg) Spectral acceleration (xg) ξ= Period (seconds) ξ= Period (seconds) ξ= Period (seconds) Spectral displacement (cm) (a) Whittier (M W =6.0) Spectral displacement (cm) (b) Sylmar (Northridge,1994; M W =6.7) Spectral displacement (cm) (c) Kobe (M W =6.9) ξ= Period (seconds) ξ= Period (seconds) ξ= Period (seconds) M6 15 km M6.7 6 km M6.9 1 km
26 Response Spectra Observations ARS do not give the complete picture of damage potential of an EQ EQs with large PGAs do not necessarily indicate large potential for damage. Distance to source plays an important role in defining damage potential of an EQ
27 Seismic Input for DDBD
28 DRS Options Approximate from code ARS Direct calculation from code specified parameters (i.e. EuroCode) Ground motion prediction equations (magnitude-distance relationships) for DRS, or converted from ARS. Site-specific evaluation
29 Option One: DRS from ARS
30 Derived ASCE 7 Displacement Spectra Tc Easy to apply, however, design ARS may be inaccurate in the long period range, likely overestimating response levels.
31 Option Two: Code DRS Ideal option, however, only EuroCode defines DRS directly
32 Option Three: GMPEs Numerous GMPEs for ARS that could be converted to DRS by dividing by ω 2 as in option one. Preferable to use GMPE that directly defines DRS, i.e. Faccioli, 2004 and 2010.
33 DESIGN DISPLACEMENT SPECTRA (4) Based on Faccioli s observations,the corner period T c appears to increase almost linearly with moment magnitude. For earthquakes with M W > 5.7, the following expression seems conservative: ( 5.7) T c M = w Peak displacement at the corner period can be estimated from the following expression (firm ground): δ max = 10 ( M 3.2) W r mm seconds r = nearest distance to fault plane (km)
34 Spectral Displacement (mm) M = 7.5 M = 7.0 M = 6.5 M = Period (seconds) 5% Damped Spectra Resulting from the Equations, at r = 10km

41 DIRECT DISPLACEMENT-BASED DESIGN SINGLE-DEGREE-OF-FREEDOM STRUCTURES
42 1. DESIGN DISPLACEMENT FOR S.D.O.F STRUCTURES Depends on Design Limit State Structural displacement limit: Strain related, Ductility related Non-structural displacement limit: Drift related chose critical of structural and non-structural limit displacements
43 EXAMPLE OF STRAIN LIMIT STATES Curvature from concrete compression: φ mc = ε cm /c Curvature from reinforcement tension: φ ms = ε sm /(d-c) Chose lesser of φ mc and φ ms, Design Displacement is: ds = y + p = φ y H 2 /3 + (φ m -φ y )L p H L p = plastic hinge length.
44 2. DUCTILITY Damping depends on the design displacement ductility: µ = d / y NOTE: The yield displacement is independent of strength, and is thus known at the start of the design process (provided section size is known). Hence ductility is known at the start of the design process.
45 DIMENSIONLESS YIELD CURVATURES AND DRIFTS
46 3.EQUIVALENT VISCOUS DAMPING
47
48 HYSTERETIC DAMPING INITIAL WORK: JACOBSEN EVD APPROACH
49 RELATIONSHIPS FOR TANGENT-STIFFNESS DAMPING, T e > 1 sec (CORRECTION FACTOR INCLUDED)
50 Example DDBD SDOF H=10m d=2m 875 mm 4 sec. ζ=5% f y =470MPa E s =200GPa W=5000kN θ d =0.035 µ d =4 Target Displacement: Drift: d =(0.035)(10m) = m Ductility: d =µ d y y =φ y H 2 /3 φ y =2.25ε y /D= /m y = m d = 4(0.088) = m
51 Example DDBD SDOF Equivalent Viscous Damping (These expressions all assume 5% tangent stiffness proportional viscous damping and hysteretic damping):
52 Example DDBD SDOF Obtaining Effective Period: Disp (mm) c 5% = 875 mm ζ=5% c 15.5% = 553 mm ζ=15.5% d = 350 mm T eff = 2.53 NOTE: c X% = c 5% R ξ R ξ = T c = ζ Period (sec)
53 Example DDBD SDOF Obtaining Effective Stiffness: Obtaining Design Base Shear:
54 Simplified Base Shear Equation for DDBD α = 0.5 for regular conditions α = 0.25 for velocity pulse conditions NOTE: Damping expressed as ratio in the above equation (not %). NOTE: Equation assumes a linear DRS to the corner point.
55 Sample Problems See Handout
56 Session 4 Longitudinal Design of Bridges Transverse Design of Bridges
57 DDBD OF MDOF BRIDGES Longitudinal Design: If the bridge is straight, this is generally straightforward, but will often dominate design requirements. Effective damping and design displacement are the main issues. Transverse Design: More complex, but often doesn t govern. Displacement shape may not be obvious at start. Design displacement, damping, higher mode effects need to be considered.
58 Obtaining Displaced Shape Displacement Position along bridge Note: Stars are limit state displacements based on strain, ductility, or drift
59 System Displacement and Effective Mass From work balance between MDOF and SDOF systems: From force equilibrium between MDOF and SDOF systems:
60 Base Shear Distribution Force is distributed in proportion to mass and pier top displacement.
61
62 Transverse Design Example 40m 50m 50m 40m A 16m C 12m 16m E B (Not to scale) D Estimate proportion of total force carried to abutments: X = 0.5 Target displaced shape (governed by limit state displacement of central column: 40mm; 417mm; 596mm; 417mm; 40mm Pier B and D displacements are assumed to be 70% of Pier C displ.
63 Example, continued System displacement: 485mm Pier ductilities: 1.59; 3.82; 1.59 Pier damping: 10.2%, 15.4%, 10.2% System damping: 8.9% Base shear: kn Lateral force distribution: 115; 2820; 4410; 2820;115 kn Lateral analysis using secant stiffness properties: 43mm; 383mm; 572mm; 383mm; 43mm (actual) 40mm; 417mm; 596mm; 417mm; 40mm (target) Revision of proportion of force carried by abutments. (increase portion of force to abutments slightly) Converge onto X and displaced shape. 40mm; 395mm; 595mm; 395mm; 40mm (final)

67 IMPLEMENTATION OF DDBD IN PRACTICE CODES: 1. Chapter 14 is written in code format, as a starting point for code development. 2. Envisaged as being adopted as an alternative design process (i.e. parallel force-based and displacement-based procedures acceptable) 3. POLA has adopted DDBD as the preferred procedure of a dual force-based/displacement-based code (performance defined by limit strains for BOTH approaches. 4. Australia, New Zealand, Europe developing DDBD based codes.
68 IMPLEMENTATION OF DDBD IN PRACTICE WITHIN EXISTING CODES: Many codes permit the use of Time-history analysis as a design tool, hence: 1. Design using DDBD to obtain a rational design 2. Verify response using ITHA. Note that this approach follows the logical procedure of using analysis to verify design, rather than using analysis to DEFINE design (as with multi-modal analysis)
