Outline of Final Research Achievements

The steel frames with column mid-height uplift (CMU) mechanism at the first story are implemented as response-control structural systems that reduce the seismic effects by exploiting the gravity effect generally deteriorating the seismic performance of ordinary structures. In the previous studies, the reduction effect on the seismic response of the column-base uplift (CBU) rocking systems with columns allowed to uplift has been evaluated and examined. The advantages and disadvantages of the systems have also been discussed. This study presents the seismic performance of CMU rocking frames with emphasis on the fundamental mechanical properties of CMU frames based on the simplified analytical models, performance evaluation of CMU mechanism resulted from the cyclically static loading tests and the seismic response behavior of CMU frames. Finally, some suggestions and recommendations are made on the seismic design of the rocking systems.
