Present study investigtes the prmetric response of dul steel frmes tht consist of steel plte sher wlls nd moment resisting frmes. The prmetric study ws crried out using numericl model which ws vlidted ginst experimentl tests. Sp2000 ws used to replicte the test results in order to vlidte the numericl models. The numericl model ws pplied to conduct incrementl dynmic nlyses on 6 story SPSW frme in order to determine its seismic response. In the nlysis two types of soil conditions nd seven different ground motion records were tken into ccount. The min ojective ws to estimte the ehviour fctor q, which is used in seismic design of such structures. Summry of investigtions nd min results will e presented. Key words: dul frmes; dissiptive pnels; nonliner dynmic nlysis; q fctor. 1.

In the sence of such design provisions, other design codes (e.g. AISC 2010, (ANSI/AISC , 2010)) could e used s reference, ut this is not very strightforwrd. The economic cost nd construction efficiency of the system represent two dvntges of such structurl systems. The detiling of the infill pnel to ordering elements cn e done using fillet welds or olted connections. When olted connections re used, the construction time my e reduced nd there is possiility of plte replcement fter n erthquke. This represents recent development in the field, where dissiptive elements my e designed nd detiled to e replced fter n erthquke (Duin & Dinu, 2014). This requires specil design nd detiling conditions nd my reduce the cost of intervention for low to moderte erthqukes. In most cses, replcement is conditioned y the re-centering cpcity of the dul system. In order to ddress the issues presented ove with regrd to the performnces of SPSW systems, reserch progrm, including experimentl nd numericl studies, ws developed t Politehnic University Timisor, Lortory of Steel Structures. The experimentl study ws performed on dul SPSW systems in order to quntify the ehvior fctor q nd to evlute the recentering cpcity of the system. The numericl studies were performed on dul SPSW structures designed ccording to Eurocodes. Where necessry, AISC 2010 (ANSI/AISC , 2010) provisions were employed, lso. The study reported in this pper investigted the performnce of six story SPSW dul structure. The dul structurl system used is composed of moment resisting frme (MRF), two infill pnels which re connected to the oundry elements with olts, nd two dditionl stnchions tht re plced s interior verticl oundry elements (Fig. 1). This system llows the concentrtion of dmge minly in the pltes. If the flexile MR frmes re designed to remin elstic during the erthquke, they provide the restoring force tht is necessry to re-center the structure nd to llow the replcement of the dmged infill pltes. Infill pltes = + Stnchions Link em Fig. 1 Dul SPSW with MRF, infill pltes nd stnchions. Non-liner dynmic nlyses were employed tking into ccount two sets of ground motions scled for two types of spectr corresponding to soft nd

Design of Structure Design of the structure ws done ccording to Eurocodes (EN1998-1; EN ; EN ) nd AISC (ANSI/AISC , 2010). According to EN1998-1, the uilding site is chrcterized y pek ground ccelertion of 0.4 g, with corner period T C of 0.8 s (Type 1 response spectr nd ground type D). A ehvior fctor of 5 ws used for preliminry design of structure. The structure hs the configurtion presented in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 SPSW structure; equivlent structure with tension digonls. According to AISC Seismic Provisions (ANSI/AISC , 2010), SPSW is first pproximted y verticl truss with equivlent tension rces (Fig. 2 ). The cross sections of the equivlent rces need to e designed to meet the lterl drift requirements. According to the cpcity design principles from AISC (ANSI/AISC , 2010), the horizontl nd verticl oundry elements (HBE nd VBE) re designed to resist the mximum forces developed under the tension field ction of the fully yielded pnels. Axil forces, sher forces, nd ending moments develop in the SPSW oundry elements ecuse of the overll overturning, sher, nd tension field ction in the pnels. VBEs nd HBEs should remin essentilly elstic under the forces generted y fully yielded pltes, ut flexurl hinges re llowed t the ends of HBEs. To prevent excessive deformtion, leding to premture uckling under the pulling ction of the pltes, the minimum moment of inerti of the columns ws clculted. After the equivlent structure with the verticl truss ws designed nd configured, the rces were replced y steel pnels. For n ssumed ngle of inclintion α of the tension field (tken s 45 ) nd using the re of the equivlent rces, the thickness of the pltes ws clculted (Duin & Dinu, 2014).

The ems, stnchions nd columns were designed using S355 steel, which hs nominl yield strength f y of 355 N/mm 2. The pltes were designed using S235 steel, which hs nominl yield strength f y of 235 N/mm 2. Europen IPE nd HEB hot rolled profiles were used for ems, columns nd stnchions (see Fig. 3) Anlysis Procedure A non-liner incrementl dynmic nlysis (IDA) ws employed in order to estimte the seismic response of the SPSW system. Two type of soils were tken into ccount, i.e. soft soil (type D) nd stiff soil (type A) (Fig. 4), nd seven different ground motion records for ech type of soil. D A Fig. 4 Type 1 elstic spectrum ccording to EN

5 Bul. Inst. Polit. Işi, t. LXI (LXV), f. 3, Ech ground motion record ws scled to the liner-elstic 5%-dmped spectrl ccelertion etween 0.2T 1 nd T 1 (where T 1 is the fundmentl period of the structure) to mtch the trget spectrum (Type A nd D spectr, see Fig. 5). T 1 Ground motions T c=0.4s g=0.54g S=1.0 T 1 Ground motions T c=0.8s g=0.4g S=1.35 Fig. 5 Scled records: type A elstic spectrum; type D elstic spectrum. Note tht the first three periods of the structure re T 1 = 0.61 s, T 2 = = 0.18 s nd T 3 = 0.08 s. In the incrementl dynmic nlysis, the ground motion records were scled to severl intensities (using fctor λ) until the ttinment of numericl non-convergence (dynmic instility, DI) or other limiting criteri re ttined (e.g. exhustion of plstic deformtion cpcity in elements). Three performnce levels were considered, i.e. serviceility limit stte (SLS), where the intensity of ground motion is scled y λ = 0.5, ultimte limit stte (ULS) with intensity fctor λ = 1.0 nd collpse prevention limit stte (CPLS) with intensity fctor of λ = Vlidtion of Numericl Models The Finite Element Model used for the IDA nlysis is detiled y Duin & Dinu, (2014) nd (2013). The numericl model ws vlidted ginst experimentl test results. The test specimens were isolted from the second nd third story of 6 story dul SPSW frme structure with the configurtion presented in Fig. 1. Becuse of lortory restrictions, the specimens were downscled. The experimentl frme ws 3,500 mm height nd 4,200 mm wide (distnces mesured etween elements centerlines, Fig. 6 ). Slender steel pnels, with plte thickness of 2 mm, rtio L/tw mounting 595 nd spect rtio L/h of 0.8, were used. Typicl connections used for the experimentl specimens re presented in Fig. 6. Extended end plte olted connections were used to join ems nd columns. The joint ws considered rigid nd prtil strength (M j,rd =

6 66 Călin Negu, Flore Dinu nd Dn Duin = 0.9M,Rd ) (ccording to EN clssifiction) (Fig. 6 ). For the connection of the pltes to the oundry elements, 8.8 clss preloded olts nd 6 mm fish pltes were used. Additionl fishpltes of 4 mm were dded in order to strengthen the plte nd reduce the numer of olts (Fig. 6 c).

The specimen ws sujected to incresing cyclic loding until filure, ccording to ECCS loding protocol (Fig. 7 ) (ECCS 1985). Two ctutors with 360 mm stroke nd 1,000 kn nd 500 kn cpcity, respectively, were used, one t ech story (Fig. 7 ). To note tht monotonic test is first required for evluting the yielding displcement tht is used s loding prmeter in the cyclic test. Fig. 7 Loding protocol; Test set-up. Fig. 8 shows the monotonic () nd cyclic () response of the specimen in terms of se sher force versus top displcement. Due to the high plte slenderness (2 mm thickness), the sher uckling occurred t reltively low levels of drifts, t pproximtely 0.4%. After uckling, the lterl lod ws crried through the tension field developed in the pnel. The infill pltes yielded first t 0.9% inter-storey drift (Fig. 8, point ). The specimen could withstnd

The numericl model for monotonic nlysis predicted with good ccurcy the entire ehviour of the system, including the softening rnch, see Fig. 8. The smll differences cn e ttriuted to imperfections in testing set-up nd contriution of em to column connections (gusset plte effect). Using pivot hysteretic type hinges for strips, it ws possile to predict the overll cyclic ehviour lso, including the degrdtion of the pltes nd pinching effect, Fig Bse sher force [kn] Experimentl Numeric Top displcement [mm] Bse sher force, KN Fig. 8 Numeric vs. experimentl results Top displcement, mm Experimentl Numeric 2.4. Results One of the min prmeters ssocited with the glol performnce of the SPSW systems is the ehviour fctor q. The ehviour fctor q cn e expressed s product of the ductility reduction fctor, q μ, nd the over-strength fctor, q s. The over-strength my vry significntly nd is ffected y the contriution of grvity lods, mteril over-strength, structurl redundncy, etc. The ductility component q μ is defined s the rtio etween the ccelertion multiplier leding to collpse, λ u, nd the ccelertion multiplier leding to first yielding, λ 1. The ductility fctor is more importnt when the dissiption cpcity is of concern, nd will e further investigted. Fig. 9 to Fig. 12 show the development of plstic hinges nd the interstory drift rtios for the 6 story structure. In this pper is presented only the plstic mechnisms for the 2 nd nd 4 th ground motions (see Fig. 5), while the corresponding inter-story drifts re shown in comprison for the two types of soil conditions. In cse of 2 nd ground motion, t ultimte limit stte the plstic hinges re minly developed in pltes, with very smll dmge in moment resisting frme for soft soil conditions.

Conclusions An extensive numericl simultion progrm using incrementl nonliner dynmic nlysis ws employed on 6 story dul SPSW structure with link ems nd rigid em-to-column connection, in order to evlute the ehviour fctor q. A set of seven ground motions nd two types of soil (i.e. stiff nd soft soil) were tken into ccount. The results of the numericl nlyses showed tht the type of ground motion ffects the response of SPSW structures. The dmge in structure is more severe in cse of soft soil conditions. The vlues of q fctor otined in the numericl study re closed to those reported experimentlly (Duin & Dinu, 2014) nd confirm tht SPSW structures cn e clssified s highly dissiptive structures. However, further studies re required for complete vlidtion of ehviour fctor q. Acknowledgement.
