Analytical Models of Instrumented Moment
Frame Steel Buildings in Opensees
Summary:
This report describes the details of instrumented
moment frame steel buildings selected for statistical
evaluation of primary structural response parameters (including
peak and residual roof and interstory drift ratios, external
and internal components’ plastic chord rotations
and finally the floor accelerations) obtained through
compressive NTH analyses conducted in the context of ground
motion time-series selection and scaling project.
In the following, details of three buildings and description
about their computer models are provided, the buildings
included are:
o 6-Story Steel Moment Frame Building
o 13-Story Steel Moment Frame Building
o 19-Story Steel Moment Frame Building (will be added
to the report in the near future)
2. 6-Story Steel Moment Frame Building
2.1 Building Details
This building (shown in Fig 2.1) is a 6-story steel structure
designed in 1976 as per the 1973 UBC requirements and
is located in Burbank, California. The rectangular plan
of the building measures 120 feet by 120 feet (36.6 x
36.6 m) with a 3 ¼ in. (8.3 cm) thick light weight
concrete
(110 lb /ft3) slab over 3 in. (7.6 cm) metal decking.
Shear studs between the slab and beams were provided on
the interior beams in the North-South direction only.
The primary lateral load resisting system is a moment
frame around the perimeter of the building. The structural
system is essentially symmetrical. Moment continuity of
each of the perimeter frames is interrupted at
the ends where a simple shear connection is used to connect
to the weak column axis.
