Structural condition assessment with structural health monitoring systems and nonlinear simplified models
AbstractDamage assessment of tall buildings after an earthquake is important for efficient postearthquake management due to social and economic reasons. Structural health monitoring (SHM) system enables rapid, remote, and objective condition assessment for tall buildings by controlling dynamic properties of structures. However, tracking only the changes in dynamic properties of tall buildings may not be sufficient for damage assessment. In this paper, changes in modal frequencies and maximum interstory drift ratio are investigated as damage assessment indicators because they can be obtained by analyzing vibration data recorded by SHM system. On the other hand, limited number of sensors are used due to economic reasons. Therefore, in this paper, firstly, a unique methodology on development and optimization of nonlinear simplified model for tall buildings is presented to estimate responses of noninstrumented floors from instrumented floors. After that, new threshold values are suggested for changes in dynamic properties and interstory drift ratios to reliably decide performance level of structures after earthquakes. Finally, the proposed method was validated with vibration record of a real damaged building.
