Abstract:

A procedure is outlined and evaluated for estimation of beam and panel zone deformation demands for given estimates of story drift demands for regular steel moment resisting frame (SMRF) structures. The total story drift demand is related to the story plastic drift demand by estimating the story yield drift based on the weakest element at the connection. The story plastic drift demand is related to the panel zone and beam plastic deformation demands by a function based on story geometry and member properties. The procedure is verified for a series of code compliant SMRFs. It complements a process presented in the literature that permits the estimation of seismic drift demand for frame structures from the spectral displacement demand at the first mode period of the structure. The combined process should prove useful in conceptual design, in estimating deformation demands for performance assessment, and in improving basic understanding of seismic behavior of steel frame structures.
