11 Example Plastic Mechanisms

12 Capacity Design Principles Concept Underpins Modern Seismic Design Establish Capacity and Plastic Mechanism Identify the Elements of the Structure That Should Behave Inelastically and Design Them to Yield. Provide Ductility Ensure Those Elements Can Tolerate the Inelastic Demands Imposed by the Design Earthquake. Capacity Protect the Rest Design All Other Elements to be Strong Enough That They Do Not Behave Inelastically, and Provide Articulation to Permit Mobilization of the Plastic Mechanism.

13 System Load vs Deflection Pushover Curve

14 Dynamic Equilibrium Revisted: Including Yielding f inertial = m (a gnd + a rel ) = Earthquake Load superstructure columns Inertial force is limited to sum of column shears to satisfy equilibrim. Bent FBD Transverse Loading f spring +f damping The column shears include inelastic effects.

15 Transverse Response Two-Span Continuous Superstructure (If superstructure were non-continuous, then center bent would resist much larger forces.)
