16 Lessons from Mae Lao Earthquake Lack of Lateral Strength and Poor Configuration are the Primary Causes of Collapse Accidental Torsional and Soft Story are the Primary Causes of Collapse Effects of Nonstructural Element (Masonry Infill Walls)

17 Lack of Lateral Strength and Nonductile Reinforcement Details Low Transverse Reinforcement High Longitudinal Reinforcement Construction Joints Lap-Splice in Potential Plastic Hinge Region Non-Uniform Flexural Capacity Non-Uniform Shear Capacity No Joint Reinforcement Discontinuous Positive Beam Reinforcements Short Embedment Length into Columns

32 Design Case Study: EBF Frame in Chiang Rai, Thailand

33 Why Steel EBF? Steel EBF Offers Excellent Stiffness and Ductility In the Event of Extreme Loading Beyond the Design Level, Steel Structures can be Repaired More Quickly

50 EBFs are distributed around the perimeter to reduce torsional response

51 Design Issues with EBF for Moderate Force V e = S a xw Seismic Zones R Value Depends on the Ductility of the System (R = 3 to 8) V e /R YIELDING Deformation

52 Seismic Design Per Thai Standard (DPW1302) Spectral Acceleration Importance Factor V Sa( T ) V R I W Design Base Shear Response Modification Factor R = 8 For EBF High R Value May Result in Very Low Required Lateral Strength!

53 ISSUES WITH CURRENT ELASTIC DESIGN METHOD High R Value may result in very low required frame lateral strength Reserve strength beyond elastic limit is neither quantified nor utilized explicitly The inelastic deformation is not directly computed making it difficult to limit the deformation of the structure to a target level

56 Performance-Based Plastic Design The Target Deformation of the Structure is first selected Frame and member strengths are calculated using plastic analysis corresponding to the target deformation PBPD method has been applied to the design of steel BRBF, EBF, STMF, and CBF, and has been validated by nonlinear
