Seismic Response of Low -Rise Shear Wall Structures With Flexible Diaphragms

Abstract

dc:description

In this study, simple methods to more accurately estimate peak interstory drifts that account for higher mode effects are described for low-rise perimeter shear wall structures. The proposed methods are based on the principal modes obtained from a principal components analysis (PCA) of computed inelastic dynamic responses. The method can consider variations in the design response spectrum and gives reasonably good estimates for use for preliminary design of the structure. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).
