Seismic performance evaluation for steel MRF:non linear dynamic and static analyses |
||
B. Calderoni and Z. Rinaldi
|
||
Abstract | ||
The performance of steel MRF with rigid connections, proportioned by adopting different capacity design criteria, is evaluated in order to highlight the effectiveness of static non-linear procedure in predicting the structural seismic behavior. In the framework of the performance-based design, some considerations are made on the basis of the results obtained by both dynamic time histories and push-over analyses, particularly with reference to the damage level and the structure ability to withstand a strong earthquake. | ||
