Ground-Motion Intensity Measures for the Seismic Response of the Roof-Isolated Large-Span Structure

Ground-motion intensity measures (IMs), which quantify and describe the characteristics of earthquake ground motion, are of utmost importance in the assessment of seismic risk and the design of resilient structures with large spans. The appropriate selection of a ground-motion IM is crucial in establishing a reliable and robust correlation between seismic hazards and structural demands. The current study presents a novel ground-motion IM that incorporates the influence of multiple vibration modes and period elongation resulting from isolation based on the velocity spectrum. A comprehensive study has been conducted to examine the efficiency of 37 different ground-motion IMs on a roof-isolated large-span structure with engineering demand parameters (EDPs), using far-field ground-motion data. The initial examination of the proposed intensity measure involves a planar lumped-mass model. Subsequently, a numerical model of a large-span roof-isolated structure, specifically the Beijing Workers’ Stadium, is constructed and examined. The results suggest that the proposed intensity measure (IM) demonstrates satisfactory adequacy and achieves optimal efficiency when considering three different engineering demand parameters among 37 other ground-motion intensity measures.
