Static seismic analysis methods : a report submitted to the faculty of the Milwaukee School of Engineering in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Structural Engineering / by Mahmoud Faytarouni. by Faytarouni, Mahmoud, author., Milwaukee School of Engineering Subjects Earthquake resistant design   Earth movements and building   Structural analysis (Engineering) -- Mathematics.   MSST Project. Description:  123 leaves : illustrations, some of which are in color ; 29 cm. Contents:  Introduction -- Literature review -- Structural modeling -- Different analysis methods -- Equivalent lateral force analysis -- Modal response spectrum analysis -- Nonlinear static pushover analysis -- Application of the nonlinear static pushover analysis -- Conclusion. The aim of seismic design is to reduce human and economic losses by designing earthquake resistant buildings. Codes provide standard methods for determining the earthquake demand on a structure. There are static methods, which represent the effects of ground movements by lateral forces applied to the building. There are also dynamic methods, which predict the structure's response to time varying ground acceleration. These methods traditionally are based on linear elastic analysis, but there are trends to better include the effects of inelastic behavior and other sources of nonlinearity. This project compares the outcomes of different procedures for determining seismic demand on common structural systems. Structures are modeled using a common commercial finite element software. In this research, the Equivalent Lateral Force (ELF), the Modal Response Spectrum (MRS) and the Nonlinear Static Pushover (NSP) analytical methods were all applied to a Grohmann Tower building model in different ways. The building used has various characteristics and with different lateral force resisting systems. The building performance has been evaluated for all these different methods, and the NSP analysis alone enabled the ability to carry out further adjustments to the design to achieve the desired performance.
