1. Introduction

The Seismic Response History Procedure (SRHP) is a determined nonlinear structural

analysis software, based on the most current IBC/CBC, ASCE, ACI and AASHTO,

without probability and/or fuzzy math. The SRHP is also an open system, which the

element matrix, design criteria, and even nonlinear method, are all changeable. Fromthe manual example, user can find a 5 story building, under El Centro 1940 earthquake,

history procedures of story drift, equivalent base shear and later forces, and their

maximum value with its happened time.

2. Equation of Motion

The seismic analysis/design is based on the following equation of motion.

(Eq. 2.1)

Where:

[m] = Diagonal mass matrix based on each floor diaphragm center points (selected

global DOFs), including horizontal X, Y directions, and moment of inertia. The

each floor diaphragm center points may not be at a same vertical location to keep

mass matrix diagonal.

The moment of inertia is a rigid diaphragm concept. Semirigid modelingassumption (ASCE 7-10 12.3.1) forces the [m] to non-diagonal matrix, which

results from Complex Eigenvector modes. This software user can cut a diaphragm

to two and more, but each smaller one has to be rigid.

{u} = Displacement vector at each floor diaphragm center points, including horizontal X,

Y directions, and rotation. Typical for velocity {} and acceleration {}.

[k] = Lateral stiffness full matrix based on each floor diaphragm center points, which

concentrated from each vertical 2D frames.

{g} = Ground acceleration, including horizontal X, Y directions, and rotation, without

SRSS probability issue. User can rotate the structural locations to get maximum

responses.

To get the ground motions in a maximum direction (ASCE 7-10 16.1.3.2) is

based on Single Degree of Freedom, because any actual structural stiffness, [k],

is full matrix, which means that the two horizontal X and Y responses coupled

together. One of DOFs at one direction reached maximum response does not

mean other all DOFs maximum responses, even minimum at the same direction.

[c] = Damping matrix as follows.

(Eq. 2.2)

The reasons that Eq. 2.2 has to be applied are

1. Only damping ratio of has been called out, 5%, on ASCE 7-10, 16.1.3 &

21.1.3. There are no other adapted law document for damping input. The

(Eq. 2.2) has reached the code requirement.

2. The (Eq. 2.2) is an applicable math method to solve the equation ofmotion(Eq. 2.1), because structural period T1& T2are not constants in

nonlinear structural analysis. The T1& T2are changed in each time steps

after plastic hinges formed.

{fg } = Must be Zero vector. Otherwise, the equation (Eq. 2.1) cannot be solved as

classical damped system. The static gravity loads are not vectors changed on

time steps in Equation of Motion.

3. Lateral Resisting Frame

The lateral resisting frames are 2D vertical substructures.

Fig. 3.1 Substructural DOFs for a 2D Lateral Resisting Frame

The reasons to use 2D lateral resisting frame, not 3D, as substructure are

1. For steel design, the Special Moment Frame (SMF) is based on 2D requirements

of AISC 341-05 and AISC 358-05, and orthogonal moment frames sharing

common column are not permitted by 2010 CBC 2205A.5.

2. For concrete design, the biaxial bending cannot be separated. If orthogonal

moments exist con-currently, the ACI 318-08 Chapter 21 cannot be applied.

4. Finite Element

Nonlinear Beam-Column element:

1. Concrete beam/column/brace

2. Steel beam/column/brace

3. Super composite column

Linear Wall/Diaphragm element.

The following finite elements are all

changeable.

6. Output Results

(1). Structural periods.The first structural period is not constant on Nonlinear

Structural Analysis. For the example of 5 story concrete building, after time step 0.82

sec, the structure changed from linear to nonlinear, and, at step 2.14 sec., the

structural period reached maximum value of 0.735 sec.

Fig. 6.1 History Procedure of the first structural period, T1, of the example

The damping matrix, [c], is also updated at each time steps on nonlinear stage,

although damping ratio, , constantly 5%, which this concept is matched with the

passive physical damping. It is inadequate to keep damping matrix without changes,

and the analysis results are wrong.

(2). Equivalent base shear forces.The base shear forces at each directions may

govern concrete structural design.

The floor acceleration is bigger than ground, and the most equipment damping ratio

is 2%, not the same with building 5%, so the building code Response Spectrum may

not be directly apply to School and Hospital design.

Fig. 6.5 The Response Spectrum at the 5th Floor on X Direction

(5).Other eyes to see structure.The software can set up eyes, as many as possible,

to record structural responses, including each joint movements, section forces,

although the non-linear section forces cannot be used with linear load combinations

(IBC/CBC 1605).

7.Conclusion

For any single actual structure, the earthquake is a point history procedure of groundthree dimensional movements. Based on the real recorded X, Y, (& even vertical Z)

direction ground accelerations, this SRHP software can directly check the structure if

adequate for both capacity and deformation, without probability and/or fuzzy math

(neither SRSS/CQC, nor Scale Factor).

1. Why this SRHP software results have made a big difference with others?

The SRHP software is more accurate than Modal Superposition Method, because the

Modal Superposition Method is a probability method, which always requires a ScaleFactor (ASCE 7 12.9.2, 12.9.4, & CBC 1614A.1.9) with SRSS/CQC, or even just SUM,

to reach the determined analysis results.

2. Why the structural periods have to be calculated at each time step?

The physical damping concept is a passive force/load, not constant one. When

structural stiffness (periods) changed, the damping matrix [c] has to be updated, at each

time step.

3. Why the SRHP software does not include nonlinear shear wall?

The software can input nonlinear shear wall, since opening system. But as lateral frame,

shear wall cannot be designed with plastic hinges. Based on ACI 318-08 Chapter 21,

the SD level elastic section forces are always used to check shear wall capacity if

adequate, which means that the shear wall is linear within Mn capacity. Out-of fMn

capacity, the shear wall, no matter its linear or nonlinear, cannot be as lateral frame any

more.

Shear wall may keep gravity capacity, at upper-bound seismic load, but not plastic

hinge stiffness (dog bone).

4. Why the SRHP used 2D frame, not directly 3D?

The most lateral resisting frames are built by W-Shape steel with almost zero torsional

stiffness, and/or by concrete element with brittle torsional crushing. The current 3D

element stiffness matrix (12 x 12) cannot cover them well.

Although ASCE 7-10 included 3D nonlinear section, the upper level 2010 CBC general

section 1.1.7 say that the specific provision shall apply in the event of any differences

between ASCE 7 and ACI/AISC, so the 2D frame, based on ACI 318-08 Chapter 21 and

AISC 341-05/AISC 358-05, still governs lateral design.

5. Why the SRHP does not calculate LL, Wind, & P?

Before the load combinations (IBC/CBC 1605), all loads have to be known. Also, all

load combinations are linear point combinations, not nonlinear history procedure

combinations.

This SRHP software is focus on getting correct seismic load (equivalent base shear

force) and the maximum value.


17/17

6. Why are artificial acceleration time history game?

The reasons are as follows.

(1). The equation of motion (Eq. 2.1) is from

There are very strong assumptions that have been made, from {P(t)}to -[m] {g}.

All real recordings of acceleration time history are ground acceleration, {g},

which from amass that not included in the [m] of equation of motion, no

matter the recording point is at ground, roof, floor, soft soil, rigid soil, mountain

top, or valley bottom.

(2). All actual structural stiffness in the equation of motion, [k], is full matrix, which

means that all DOFs of responses coupled together. Any modification of real

recordings of acceleration time history, scale or filter, will result in some DOFs

responses inadequate.

(3). An artificial acceleration time history has the exactly same of response spectrum,

with a real recordings of acceleration time history, only means that the two time

histories have the same PROBABILITYof only one DOF in the real structure.
