Research Abstract |
In the earthquake resistance design of frame structures, the mode in entire failure pattern, which allows the yielding of all the beams in flexure prior to possible yielding of columns, is generally considered to be a preferable mode. Structures are therefore generally weak-beam-strong-column designed with a column over-design factor. In reality however, the designed weak-beam-strong-column structures may not collapse according to the preferable failure mode because of the large uncertainties in the external loads and the member strengths. These uncertainties may change the column over-design factor (COF) and the structure may collapse according to some unpreferable failure modes such as the weak story mechanisms. The object of this study is probabilistic evaluation of the target values of column over-design factors for which the occurrence probability of unpreferable failure modes can be limited to within a specific tolerance. A stochastic limit analysis procedure using the Linear Programing method and the First Order Reliability Method is developed, and the likely failure modes of weak-beam-strong-column designed structures are investigated using this procedure. The target value of column over-design factor is discussed in probabilistic terms. It is found that a much higher value of column over-design factor is required in the case of uncertain loads and member strengths than is expected in deterministic cases.
