Abstrait:

Irregular reinforced concrete framed buildings are peculiar and their seismic response is difficult to predict using simplified approaches. The irregularity in structural configuration is characterized by cross-sectional area reduction of the columns along the height, in-elevation and in-plan irregular distribution of the masses, complex floor geometry or floor geometry variation along the height. This study analyses the seismic response of several four-storey buildings with different types of irregularities, namely in-elevation floor height and floor geometry variation. Additionally, responses of both seismically designed and gravity load designed structures are compared for each geometry considered. A numerical model accounting for non-linear flexural and shear response of the structure is developed, aimed at conducting non-linear incremental dynamic analyses. The results are discussed in terms of inter-storey drift, floor acceleration profiles, fragility functions and floor response spectra. A significant influence of the irregularity on floor accelerations and displacements was observed, as well as on the spectral acceleration at collapse, mainly caused by mass and stiffness variation along the height. On the other hand, no significant influence was detected on failure modes.
