The Substitute Structure Method for Earthquake-Resistant Design of Reinforced Concrete Frames
From the observation that the inelastic response to earthquakes of reinforced concrete elements could be represented by a linear-response model, a procedure was developed in another report which incorporated the effects of inelastic energy dissipation to determine the design force for a single-degree-of-freedom structure using the ordinary linear-response spectrum. The substitute-structure method extends this procedure to multi-degree-of-freedom structures. The proposed method can be used to determine earthquake design-force requirements for individual elements of a R/C structure given a design linear-response spectrum and explicit decisions about tolerable inelastic response, with the option of different limits of inelastic response in different structural elements. The paper includes a numerical example demonstrating the determination design forces in a three-story frame and a series of analytical tests of the method using two- to ten-story frames.
