TAILIEUCHUNG - Evaluation of a seismic collapse assessment methodology based on the collapsed steel buildings data in sarpol e-zahab, iran earthquake

In this paper, an attempt is made to examine the efficiency of an approximate incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method to estimate the collapse capacity of conventional steel structures. To this purpose, two partially collapsed steel structures are selected. Both two structures are comprised of an ordinarymoment resisting frame systemin one direction, and a braced frame system in other perpendicular direction. | JSEE Vol. 20, No. 3, 2018 Evaluation of a Seismic Collapse Assessment Methodology Based on the Collapsed Steel Buildings Data in Sarpol-e Zahab, Iran Earthquake Mohammad Mahdi Maddah 1 and Sassan Eshghi 2* 1 .

There are several analytical methods currently available to assess the collapse capacity of structures under earthquake ground motions. Severe earthquakes in cities provides a unique opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of the seismic collapse assessment methods. On November 21, 2017, an earthquake with the moment magnitude of and the PGA of g occurred in about 37 kilometers northwest of Sarpol-e Zahab region (Kermanshah, Iran). This earthquake caused the collapse of significant numbers of low and mid-rise steel structures. In this paper, an attempt is made to examine the efficiency of an approximate incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method to estimate the collapse capacity of conventional steel structures. To this purpose, two partially collapsed steel structures are selected. Both two structures are comprised of an ordinary moment resisting frame system in one direction, and a braced frame system in other perpendicular direction. The dimensions and permanent displacements of these structures have been measured on-site. These buildings are modeled in a finite element program and analyzed by modal pushover analysis in two major .
