Investigating the Effects of Soft Stories on the Behavior of Steel Structures during Earthquakes, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khonsari, Vahid (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this dissertation, a vast number of 2D steel IMFs (Intermediate Moment Frames) with various number of stories and bays, each having one soft storey, of various intensities (ordinary soft storey & extreme soft storey), were studied. The frames were loaded according to ASCE SEI-7-16 and were designed based on AISC-360-10. In order to make a storey softer than others, its height was increased with respect to those of other ones. The dynamic ‘nonlinear spectral analysis,’ and two different static approaches, namely those of ‘ASCE/SEI-7-90’ and ‘ASCE/SEI-7-16,’ were used to study the frames. Comparison of the results obtained from the three aforementioned methods, one dynamic and two static...
