Analysis of the Earthquake Response of a Nine-Story Steel Frame Building During the San Fernando Earthquake
A study has been made of the earthquake response of the nine-story steel frame Building 180, located at the C.I.T. Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, during the San Fernando earthquake of February 9, 1971, which was motivated by the likelihood that an earthquake similar to the February 9, 1971, shock could occur close to the JPL grounds with consequent very strong ground shaking. The analysis throws light on the actual dynamical properties of the building during the earthquake, and demonstrates that it is possible to make accurate calculations of building motions during earthquakes when the ground motion is specified. Periods of the lower modes from pre- and post-earthquake tests are compared with those during the earthquake, and calculations are made of damping ratios, roof accelerations, maximum stresses, and Fourier spectra.
