Design Criteria for Seismic Resistant Steel Structures
Abstract The paper presents the state-of —the art in the design of the steel structures, in the light of the lessons learned from the last great earthquakes: Michoacan (1985), Loma Prieta (1989), Northridge (1994) and Kobe (1995). In the introduction, the very recent progress in the conception and design are presented, showing the challenge for future research works. The design criteria as multi-level design approaches and rigidity, stiffness and ductility demands are detailed, emphasizing the unsolved problems. New aspects for ground motion modeling, as the differences between near-source and far-source earthquakes are examined. The response of the structure to these near-source earthquake is examined, taking into account the influence of superior vibration modes. velocity and strain-rate, vertical components, etc. The final conclusions consider that now is the right moment to introduce some new provisions in the design codes, in order to fill the gap that exists between the accumulated knowledge and design codes.
