Damage quantification of steel moment resisting frames using ductility parameters
Abstract The aim of a well designed construction in a seismic area is to avoid the collapse of buildings during major earthquakes. Up to now, this damage is expressed by the absence of plastic collapse, which takes into account the notion of the cinematic ductility in terms of demand and capacity. The ductility capacity must satisfy a certain level imposed by codes, without considering the duration of the strong motion and thus, number of plastic incursions and the fatigue phenomenon effects in the dissipative zones of the structure. Analytical investigation was carried out for six steel moment resisting frames with different dynamic parameters, subjected to six earthquakes with various characteristics. In total, thirty six cases were studied with a non linear dynamic analysis to assess the factors that affect the damage distribution of structures. Hereafter, the main results of this analysis are presented.
