2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 1 xi

Preface to the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual

The IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, throughout its many editions, has served the purpose of illustrating good seismic design and the correct application of building-code provisions. The Manual has bridged the gap between the discursive treatment of topics in the SEAOC Blue Book (Recommended Lateral Force Requirements and Commentary) and real-world decisions that designers face in their practice.

The examples illustrate code-compliant designs engineered to achieve good performance under severe seismic loading. In some cases simply complying with building-code requirements does not ensure good seismic response. This Manual takes the approach of exceeding the minimum code requirements in such cases, with discussion of the reasons for doing so.

Recent editions of the IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual have consisted of updates of previous editions, modified to address changes in the building code and referenced standards. Many of the adopted standards did not change between the 2006 edition of the International Building Code and the 2009 edition. The 2012 edition, which is the one used in this set of manuals, represents an extensive change of adopted standards, with many substantial changes in methodology.

Additionally, this edition has been substantially revised. New examples have been included to address new code provisions and new systems, as well as to address areas in which the codes and standards provide insufficient guidance. Important examples such as the design of base-plate anchorages for steel systems and the design of diaphragms have been added.

This expanded edition comprises five volumes:

• Volume 1: Code Application Examples• Volume 2: Examples for Light-Frame, Tilt-Up, and Masonry Buildings• Volume 3: Examples for Reinforced Concrete Buildings• Volume 4: Examples for Steel-Framed Buildings• Volume 5: Examples for Seismically Isolated Buildings and Buildings with Supplemental Damping

Previous editions have been three volumes. This expanded edition contains more types of systems for concrete buildings and steel buildings. These are no longer contained in the same volume. Volumes 3 and 4 of the 2012 edition replace Volume 3 of the 2009 edition. Additionally, we have fulfilled the long-standing goal of including examples addressing seismic isolation and supplemental damping. These examples are presented in the new Volume 5.

In general, the provisions for developing the design base shear, distributing the base-shear-forces vertically and horizontally, checking for irregularities, etc., are illustrated in Volume 1. The other volumes contain more extensive design examples that address the requirements of the material standards (for example, ACI 318 and AISC 341) that are adopted by the IBC. Building design examples do not illustrate many of the items addressed in Volume 1 in order to permit the inclusion of less-redundant content.

Each volume has been produced by a small group of authors under the direction of a manager. The managers have assembled reviewers to ensure coordination with other SEAOC work and publications, most notably the Blue Book, as well as numerical accuracy.

This manual can serve as valuable tool for engineers seeking to design buildings for good seismic response.

2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 1 xiii

Preface to Volume 1

Volume 1 of the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual addresses the application and interpretation of the seismic provisions of the 2012 International Building Code. More specifically, Chapter 16 of the 2012 IBC requires compliance with the provisions of ASCE/SEI 7-10 “Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures," except for Chapter 14 of ASCE 7.

ASCE 7 generally prescribes the loading and methodology to be used in the analysis of a structure or an element. In order to determine strength to resist to the load demands from ASCE 7, the IBC adopts national material design standards (such as ACI, AISC, MSJC, and NDS) to be used for the design of an element of a particular material. The Volume 1 examples focus on the application of the provisions of ASCE 7, while the examples in Volumes 2, 3, and 4 focus more on the application of the material design standards. The Manual is not intended to serve as a building code or to be an exhaustive catalogue of all valid approaches.

Volume 1 presents 58 examples covering most of the key code provisions within ASCE 7 Chapters 11, 12, 13, and 15. Many of the examples are similar to those in previous editions but have been rewritten to more clearly present the material and have been updated to reflect changes to the code provisions and SEAOC recommendations. Additionally, new examples are included in this edition that specifically address provisions related to site-specific ground-motion procedures, combination framing detailing requirements, scaling design values in modal response spectrum analysis, and retaining walls subject to seismic earth pressures.

Whenever possible, the authors have incorporated lessons learned from actual projects into the examples. Readers are welcome to submit other conditions or provisions not addressed in this edition for consideration in future editions.

For a given building site, the risk-targeted maximum considered earthquake spectral response accelerations SS, at short periods, and S1, at a 1-second period, are given by the acceleration contour maps in Chapter 22 in Figures 22-1 through 22-6. This example illustrates the general procedure for determining the design spectral response acceleration parameters SDS and SD1 from the mapped values of SS and S1. The parameters SDS and SD1 are used to calculate the design response spectrum in Section 11.4.5 and the design base shear in Section 12.8.

The easiest and most accurate way to obtain the spectral values is to use the “U.S. Seismic Design Maps” application from the USGS website (http://geohazards.usgs.gov/designmaps/us/application.php). The USGS application allows for values of SS and S1 to be provided based on the address or the longitude and latitude of the site being entered.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

A building site in California is located at 38.123° North (Latitude 38.123°) and 121.123° West (Longitude -121.123°). The soil profile is Site Class D.

DETERMINE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Mapped risk-targeted maximum considered earthquake (MCER) spectral response acceleration parameters SS and S1.

2. Site coefficients Fa and Fv and MCER spectral response acceleration parameters SMS and SM1 adjusted for Site Class effects.

3. Design spectral response acceleration parameters SDS and SD1.

1. Mapped MCER Spectral Response Acceleration Parameters Ss and S1 §11.4.1

For the given site at 38.123° North (Latitude 38.123°) and 121.123° West (Longitude -121.123°), the USGS “U.S. Seismic Design Maps” application provides the values of

SS = 0.634g

S1 = 0.272g.

2. Site Coefficients Fa and Fv and MCER Spectral Response Acceleration Parameters SMS and SM1 Adjusted for Site Class Effects §11.4.3

For the given Site Class D and the values of SS and S1 determined above, the site coefficients are

Fa = 1.293 T11.4-1

Fv = 1.856. T11.4-2

The MCER spectral response acceleration parameters adjusted for Site Class effects are

SMS = Fa SS = 1.292(0.634g) = 0.819g Eq 11.4-1

SM1 = Fv S1 = 1.857(0.272g) = 0.505g Eq 11.4-2

3. Design Spectral Response Acceleration Parameters SDS and SD1 §11.4.4

SDS = (2/3) SMS = (2/3)(0.819g) = 0.546g Eq 11.4-3

SD1 = (2/3) SM1 = (2/3)(0.505g) = 0.337g Eq 11.4-4

Commentary

The USGS application “U.S. Seismic Design Maps” requires the risk category to be specified, even though that category is not necessary for determining SDS and SD1.

Design Example 2 Design Response Spectrum §11.4.5

PROBLEM STATEMENT

A building site in California has the following design spectral response acceleration parameters determined in accordance with Section 11.4.4 and mapped long-period transition period evaluated from Figure 22-12:

SDS = 0.55g

SD1 = 0.34g

TL = 8 sec.

DETERMINE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Design response spectrum.

1. Design Response Spectrum §11.4.5

Section 11.4.5 provides the equations for the 5 percent damped spectral response acceleration, Sa, relative to period, T, in the following ranges:

0 ≤ T < T0, T0 ≤ T ≤ TS, TS < T ≤ TL, and TL < T

where:

T0 = 0.2 SD1 / SDS,

TS = SD1 / SDS, and

TL = long-period transition period from Figures 22-12 through 22-16.

Given the values above for this example,

T0 = 0.2 SD1 / SDS = 0.2(0.34g / 0.55g) = 0.12 sec

TS = SD1 / SDS = (0.34g / 0.55g) = 0.62 sec, and

TL = 8 sec.

The spectral response acceleration, Sa, is calculated as follows:

1. For the interval 0 ≤ T < T0 (0 ≤ T < 0.12 s),

Sa = SDS(0.4 + 0.6T/T0) Eq 11.4-5

Sa = 0.55g(0.4+0.6T/0.12) = (0.22 + 2.75T)g.

2. For the interval T0 ≤ T ≤ TS (0.12 s ≤ T ≤ 0.62 s),

Sa = SDS = 0.55g.

3. For the interval TS < T ≤ TL (0.62 s < T ≤ 8 s),

Sa = SD1/T Eq 11.4-6

Sa = (0.34/T)g.

4. For the interval TL < T (8 s < T),

Sa = SD1TL/T2 Eq 11.4-7

Sa = 0.34g(8)/T2 = (2.72/T2)g.

From this information, the elastic design response spectrum for this site can be drawn, as shown below, in accordance with Figure 11.4-1:

T (sec)

Sa (g)

2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 2 vii

Preface to the 2012 IBC SEAOC Seismic/Structural Design Manual

The IBC SEAOC Seismic/Structural Design Manual, throughout its many editions, has served the purpose of illustrating good seismic design and the correct application of building-code provisions. The manual has bridged the gap between the discursive treatment of topics in the SEAOC Blue Book (Recommended Lateral Force Requirements and Commentary) and real-world decisions that designers face in their practice.

The examples illustrate code-compliant designs engineered to achieve good performance under severe seismic loading. In some cases simply complying with building-code requirements does not ensure good seismic response. This manual takes the approach of exceeding the minimum code requirements in such cases, with discussion of the reasons for doing so.

Recent editions of the IBC SEAOC Seismic/Structural Design Manual have consisted of updates of previous editions, modifi ed to address changes in the building code and referenced standards. Many of the adopted standards did not change between the 2006 edition of the International Building Code and the 2009 edition. The 2012 edition, which is the one used in this set of manuals, represents an extensive change of adopted standards, with many substantial changes in methodology.

Additionally, this edition has been substantially revised. New examples have been included to address new code provisions and new systems, as well as to address areas in which the codes and standards provide insuffi cient guidance. Important examples such as the design of base-plate anchorages for steel systems and the design of diaphragms have been added.

This expanded edition comprises fi ve volumes:

• Volume 1: Code Application Examples• Volume 2: Examples for Light-Frame, Tilt-Up, and Masonry Buildings• Volume 3: Examples for Reinforced Concrete Buildings• Volume 4: Examples for Steel-Framed Buildings• Volume 5: Examples for Seismically Isolated Buildings and Buildings with Supplemental Damping

Previous editions have been three volumes. This expanded edition contains more types of systems for concrete buildings and steel buildings. These are no longer contained in the same volume. Volumes 3 and 4 of the 2012 edition replace Volume 3 of the 2009 edition. Additionally, we have fulfi lled the long-standing goal of including examples addressing seismic isolation and supplemental damping. These examples are presented in the new Volume 5.

In general, the provisions for developing the design base shear, distributing the base-shear-forces vertically and horizontally, checking for irregularities, etc., are illustrated in Volume 1. The other volumes contain more extensive design examples that address the requirements of the material standards (for example, ACI 318 and AISC 341) that are adopted by the IBC. Building design examples do not illustrate many of the items addressed in Volume 1 in order to permit the inclusion of less-redundant content.

Each volume has been produced by a small group of authors under the direction of a manager. The managers have assembled reviewers to ensure coordination with other SEAOC work and publications, most notably the Blue Book, as well as numerical accuracy.

This manual can serve as valuable tool for engineers seeking to design buildings for good seismic response.

Preface to Volume 2

Volume 2 of the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual addresses the design of light-frame, concrete tilt-up, and masonry shear wall building systems for seismic loading. These include the illustration of the design requirements for the shear walls and diaphragms, as were illustrated in previous editions, and also important interfaces with the rest of the structure.

The design examples in this volume represent a range of structural systems and seismic systems. The design of each of these systems is governed by standards developed by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the American Wood Council (AWC). The methods illustrated herein represent approaches consistent with the ductility expectations for each system and with the desired seismic response. In most cases there are several details or mechanisms that can be utilized to achieve the ductility and resistance required, and the author of each example has selected an appropriate option. In many cases alternatives are discussed. This manual is not intended to serve as a building code, or to be an exhaustive catalogue of all valid approaches and details.

This manual is presented as a set of examples in which the engineer has considered the building-code requirements in conjunction with the optimal seismic response of the system. The examples follow the guidelines of the SEAOC Blue Book and other SEAOC recommendations. The examples are intended to aid conscientious designers in crafting designs that are likely to achieve good seismic performance consistent with expectations inherent in the requirements for the systems.

Four examples have been included in past editions of this manual and are updated in this edition: four-story wood light-frame structure, light-gage framed building on podium structure, masonry shear wall building, and tilt-up building with windows. One example—wood diaphragm—is new and is included in this edition of the manual.

Design Example 1 Four-story Wood Light-frame Structure

OVERVIEW

This design example illustrates the seismic design of selected elements for a four-story wood-frame hotel structure. The gravity-load framing system consists of wood-frame bearing walls. The lateral-load-resisting system consists of wood-framed bearing shear walls (common box-type system). A typical building elevation and fl oor plan of the structure are shown in Figures 1-1 and 1-2 respectively. A typical section showing the heights of the structure is shown in Figure 1-3. The wood roof is framed with pre-manufactured wood trusses. The fl oor is framed with prefabricated wood I-joists. The fl oors have a 1½-inch lightweight concrete topping. The roofi ng is composition shingles.

When designing this type of “mid-rise” wood-frame structure, there are several unique design elements to consider. The following steps provide a detailed analysis of some of the important seismic requirements of the shear walls per the 2012 IBC. This design example represents a very simple wood-framed wood structure; most wood-framed structures have several unique features requiring engineering design and detailing not shown in this design example.

This design example is not a complete building design. Many aspects have not been included, specifi cally the gravity-load framing system, and only certain steps of the seismic design related to portions of a selected shear wall have been illustrated. In addition, the lateral requirements for wind design related to the selected shear wall have not been illustrated (only seismic). The steps that have been illustrated may be more detailed than what is necessary for an actual building design but are presented in this manner to help the design engineer understand the process. For a more detailed listing of the items not addressed see Section 10.

2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 3 vii

Preface to the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual

The IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, throughout its many editions, has served the purpose of illustrating good seismic design and the correct application of building-code provisions. The manual has bridged the gap between the discursive treatment of topics in the SEAOC Blue Book (Recommended Lateral Force Requirements and Commentary) and real-world decisions that designers face in their practice.

The examples illustrate code-compliant designs engineered to achieve good performance under severe seismic loading. In some cases simply complying with building-code requirements does not ensure good seismic response. This manual takes the approach of exceeding the minimum code requirements in such cases, with discussion of the reasons for doing so.

Recent editions of the IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual have consisted of updates of previous editions, modifi ed to address changes in the building code and referenced standards. Many of the adopted standards did not change between the 2006 edition of the International Building Code and the 2009 edition. The 2012 edition, which is the one used in this set of manuals, represents an extensive change of adopted standards, with many substantial changes in methodology.

Additionally, this edition has been substantially revised. New examples have been included to address new code provisions and new systems, as well as to address areas in which the codes and standards provide insuffi cient guidance. Important examples such as the design of base-plate anchorages for steel systems and the design of diaphragms have been added.

This expanded edition comprises fi ve volumes:

• Volume 1: Code Application Examples• Volume 2: Examples for Light-Frame, Tilt-Up, and Masonry Buildings• Volume 3: Examples for Reinforced Concrete Buildings• Volume 4: Examples for Steel-Framed Buildings• Volume 5: Examples for Seismically Isolated Buildings and Buildings with Supplemental Damping

Previous editions have been three volumes. This expanded edition contains more types of systems for concrete buildings and steel buildings. These are no longer contained in the same volume. Volumes 3 and 4 of the 2012 edition replace Volume 3 of the 2009 edition. Additionally, we have fulfi lled the long-standing goal of including examples addressing seismic isolation and supplemental damping. These examples are presented in the new Volume 5.

In general, the provisions for developing the design base shear, distributing the base-shear-forces vertically and horizontally, checking for irregularities, etc., are illustrated in Volume 1. The other volumes contain more extensive design examples that address the requirements of the material standards (for example, ACI 318 and AISC 341) that are adopted by the IBC. Building design examples do not illustrate many of the items addressed in Volume 1 in order to permit the inclusion of less-redundant content.

Each volume has been produced by a small group of authors under the direction of a manager. The managers have assembled reviewers to ensure coordination with other SEAOC work and publications, most notably the Blue Book, as well as numerical accuracy.

This manual can serve as valuable tool for engineers seeking to design buildings for good seismic response.

Preface to Volume 3

Volume 3 of the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual illustrates the design requirements for reinforced concrete shear wall and moment-frame seismic systems, and also important interfaces with the rest of the structure.

The design examples in this volume represent a range of structural systems and seismic systems. The design of each of these systems is governed by standards developed by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) in ACI-318. The methods illustrated herein represent approaches consistent with the ductility expectations for each system and with the desired seismic response. In most cases there are several details or mechanisms that can be utilized to achieve the ductility and resistance required, and the author of each example has selected an appropriate option. In many cases alternatives are discussed. This manual is not intended to serve as a building code, nor to be an exhaustive catalogue of all valid approaches and details.

The manual is presented as a set of examples in which the engineer has considered the building-code requirements in conjunction with the optimal seismic response of the system. The examples follow the recommendations of the SEAOC Blue Book and other SEAOC recommendations. The examples are intended to aid conscientious designers in crafting designs that are likely to achieve good seismic performance consistent with expectations inherent in the requirements for the systems.

Three examples have been included in past editions of this manual and are updated in this edition: reinforced concrete shear wall, reinforced concrete shear wall with coupling beams, and reinforced concrete special moment frame. Three examples are new and are included in this edition of the manual: reinforced concrete parking garage, reinforced concrete pile foundation, and reinforced concrete diaphragms and collectors.

Design Example 1Reinforced Concrete Wall

OVERVIEW

The structure in this design example is an eight-story offi ce with load-bearing reinforced concrete walls as its seismic-force-resisting system. This design example focuses on the design and detailing of one of the 30-foot, 6-inch-long walls running in the transverse building direction.

The purpose of this design example is twofold:

1. To demonstrate the design of a solid reinforced concrete wall for fl exure and shear, including bar cut-offs and lap splices.

2. To demonstrate the design and detailing of wall boundary zones.

The design example assumes that design lateral forces have already been determined for the structure and that the forces have been distributed to the walls of the structure by a hand or computer analysis. This analysis has provided the lateral displacements corresponding to the design lateral forces.

1.1 GIVEN INFORMATION

This design example follows the general building code requirements of the 2012 International Building Code (2012 IBC) and ASCE 7. For structural concrete design, the 2012 IBC references the American Concrete Institute Building Code (ACI 318) as indicated in Section 1901.2. This example follows the requirements of ACI 318-11. Discussions related to the SEAOC Blue Book recommendations refer to the document Recommended Lateral Force Recommendations and Commentary (SEAOC, 1999) as well as the Blue Book online articles on specifi c topics (SEAOC, 2009) as applicable.

Figure 1–1 shows the typical fl oor plan of the structure. The design and analysis of the structure is based on a response modifi cation coeffi cient, R, of 5 (ASCE 7 Table 12.2–1) for a bearing wall system with special reinforced concrete shear walls. The defl ection amplifi cation factor, Cd, is 5. The SEAOC Blue Book (2009, Article 09.01.010) expresses the opinion that the R value for concrete bearing-wall systems (R = 5) and that for walls in building frame systems (R = 6) should be the same, which may be justifi ed based on detailing provisions. To be consistent with the current code requirements though, this design example uses R = 5.

Mapped spectral response acceleration values from ASCE 7 maps (Figures 22–1 through 22–11) are

• S1 = 0.65

• SS = 1.60

• Site Class D

• Risk Category II

1.2 DESIGN LOADS AND LATERAL FORCES

Figure 1–2 shows the wall elevation and shear and moment diagrams. The wall carries axial forces PD (resulting from dead load including self-weight of the wall) and PL (resulting from live load) as shown in Table 1–1. Live loads have already been reduced according to IBC Section 1607.10. The shear, VE, and moment, ME, resulting from the design lateral earthquake forces are also shown in Table 1–1. The forces are from a linear static analysis.

Design Example 1 � Reinforced Concrete Wall

For this design example, it is assumed that the foundation system is rigid, and thus the wall is considered to have a fi xed base. The fi xed-base assumption is made here primarily to simplify the example. In an actual structure, the effect of foundation fl exibility and its consequences on structural deformations should be considered.

The analysis uses effective section properties for the stiffness of concrete elements. Example 2 includes a discussion of effective section properties for use in analysis.

Using the fi xed-base assumption and effective section properties, the horizontal displacement at the top of the wall corresponding to the design lateral forces is 1.55 inches. This displacement is needed for the detailing of boundary zones according to ACI 318 Section 21.9.6, which is illustrated in Part 8 of this design example.

2. Load Combinations for Design ASCE 7

2.1 LOAD COMBINATIONS

Load combinations for the seismic design of concrete are given in Section 2.32. (This is indicated in Section 12.4.2.3.) Equations 5 and 7 of Section 2.3.2 are the seismic design load combinations to be used for concrete.

1.2D + 1.0E + L + 0.2S

0.9D + 1.0E.

Load combinations for non-seismic loads for reinforced concrete are given in Section 2.3.2, Equations 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6.

2.2 HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL COMPONENTS OF EARTHQUAKE FORCE

The term E in the load combinations includes horizontal and vertical components according to Equations 12.4–1 and 12.4–2 of Section 12.4.2:

E = Eh + Ev Eq 12.4–1

E = Eh − Ev Eq 12.4–2

where Eh and Ev are defi ned according to Equations 12.4–3 and 12.4–4 of Section 12.4.2.1 and Section 12.4.2.2 as follows:

Eh = ρQE Eq 12.4–3

Ev = 0.2SDSD. Eq 12.4–4

Substituting this into the seismic-load combinations results in

(1.2 + 0.2SDS)D + ρQE + L + 0.2S

(0.9 − 0.2SDS)D + ρQE.

2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 4 vii

Preface to the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual

The IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, throughout its many editions, has served the purpose of illustrating good seismic design and the correct application of building-code provisions. The manual has bridged the gap between the discursive treatment of topics in the SEAOC Blue Book (Recommended Lateral Force Requirements and Commentary) and real-world decisions that designers face in their practice.

The examples illustrate code-compliant designs engineered to achieve good performance under severe seismic loading. In some cases simply complying with building-code requirements does not ensure good seismic response. This manual takes the approach of exceeding the minimum code requirements in such cases, with discussion of the reasons for doing so.

Recent editions of the IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual have consisted of updates of previous editions, modifi ed to address changes in the building code and referenced standards. Many of the adopted standards did not change between the 2006 edition of the International Building Code and the 2009 edition. The 2012 edition, which is the one used in this set of manuals, represents an extensive change of adopted standards, with many substantial changes in methodology.

Additionally, this edition has been substantially revised. New examples have been included to address new code provisions and new systems, as well as to address areas in which the codes and standards provide insuffi cient guidance. Important examples such as the design of base-plate anchorages for steel systems and the design of diaphragms have been added.

This expanded edition comprises fi ve volumes:

• Volume 1: Code Application Examples• Volume 2: Examples for Light-Frame, Tilt-Up, and Masonry Buildings• Volume 3: Examples for Reinforced Concrete Buildings• Volume 4: Examples for Steel-Framed Buildings• Volume 5: Examples for Seismically Isolated Buildings and Buildings with Supplemental Damping

Previous editions have been three volumes. This expanded edition contains more types of systems for concrete buildings and steel buildings. These are no longer contained in the same volume. Volumes 3 and 4 of the 2012 edition replace Volume 3 of the 2009 edition. Additionally, we have fulfi lled the long-standing goal of including examples addressing seismic isolation and supplemental damping. These examples are presented in the new Volume 5.

In general, the provisions for developing the design base shear, distributing the base-shear-forces vertically and horizontally, checking for irregularities, etc., are illustrated in Volume 1. The other volumes contain more extensive design examples that address the requirements of the material standards (for example, ACI 318 and AISC 341) that are adopted by the IBC. Building design examples do not illustrate many of the items addressed in Volume 1 in order to permit the inclusion of less-redundant content.

Each volume has been produced by a small group of authors under the direction of a manager. The managers have assembled reviewers to ensure coordination with other SEAOC work and publications, most notably the Blue Book, as well as numerical accuracy.

This manual can serve as valuable tool for engineers seeking to design buildings for good seismic response.

2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual, Vol. 4 ix

Preface to Volume 4

Volume 4 of the 2012 IBC SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual addresses the design of steel building systems for seismic loading. Examples include the illustration of the design requirements for braced frames and moment frames, as were illustrated in previous editions, and also important interfaces with the rest of the structure.

The design examples in this volume represent a range of steel structural systems. The Manual includes a set of examples that illustrate a more complete design: the design of diaphragms and collectors is illustrated, as are the design of base plates and anchorages for moment-frame and braced-frame columns. With the addition of these items this edition of the Manual offers more extensive guidance to engineers, addressing the design of these critical components of the seismic system.

The design of each of these systems is governed by standards developed by the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC). AISC produces its own Seismic Design Manual to illustrate the correct application of the AISC Seismic Provisions (AISC 341) and the AISC Prequalifi cation Standard (AISC 358). The AISC Seismic Design Manual is a valuable resource for designers, and this volume is not intended to duplicate AISC’s efforts. This manual, for example, does not include the detailed range of options for gusset-plate design, as the AISC Seismic Design Manual addresses this design aspect thoroughly.

Nevertheless, there is a fundamental difference in purpose and approach between this manual and the AISC Seismic Design Manual. The AISC Manual illustrates the code requirements, while the SEAOC Structural/Seismic Design Manual illustrates SEAOC’s recommended practices, which traditionally have gone beyond the code (or in advance of it). The design examples for base plates are important examples of design methodologies not explicitly defi ned by building codes. Building code provisions for these connections are diffi cult to apply and do not correspond well to the mechanisms of resistance. The examples herein provide a convenient and valuable alternative methodology, one that is not an illustration of explicit code requirements.

The methods illustrated herein represent approaches consistent with the ductility expectations for each system and with the desired seismic response. In most cases there are several details or mechanisms that can be utilized to achieve the ductility and resistance required, and the author of each example has selected an appropriate option. In many cases alternatives are discussed. This Manual is not intended to serve as a building code or to be an exhaustive catalogue of all valid approaches and details.

The Manual is presented as a set of examples in which the engineer has considered the building-code requirements in conjunction with the optimal seismic response of the system. The examples follow the recommendations of the SEAOC Blue Book and other SEAOC recommendations. The examples are intended to aid conscientious designers in crafting designs that are likely to achieve good seismic performance consistent with expectations inherent in the requirements for the systems.

Design Example 1Special Moment Frame

OVERVIEW

Structural steel special moment frames (SMF) are typically comprised of wide-fl ange beams, columns, and beam-column connections. Connections are proportioned and detailed to resist internal forces (fl exural, axial, and shear) that result from imposed displacement as a result of wind or earthquake ground shaking. Inelasticity and energy dissipation are achieved through localized yielding of the beam element outside of the beam-column connection. Special proportioning and detailing of this connection is essential to achieving the desired inelastic behavior.

The anticipated seismic behavior of the SMF system is long-period, high-displacement motion, with well distributed inelastic demand shared by all participating beam-column connections. System yielding mechanisms are generally limited to frame beams with the intent to invoke yielding at the base of frame columns. In many cases, engineers may model a SMF system with pin-based columns as signifi cant stiffness is required to yield the base of large wide-fl ange members. If yielding at the base of the frame is desired to occur within the column section, the column might be extended below grade and tied into a basement wall or a ground-level beam, which is added to create a beam-column connection. Economies of construction usually limit the size of beam and column elements based on imposed displacement/drift limits.

Design regulations for steel SMF are promulgated in a series of standards: ASCE/SEI 7, ANSI/AISC 341, ANSI/AISC 358, and ANSI/AISC 360. AISC 358 provides specifi c regulations related to prequalifi cation of certain SMF connection types that obviate project-specifi c testing required by AISC 341. This design example follows the provisions of AISC 358 for the RBS connection type for the steel SMF seismic-force-resisting system.

The six-story steel offi ce structure depicted in the fi gure above has a lateral-force-resisting system comprising structural steel special moment frames. The typical fl oor framing plan is shown in Figure 1–1. A typical frame elevation is depicted in Figure 1–2. This design example utilizes simplifying assumptions

Design Example 1 � Special Moment Frame

for ease of calculation or computational effi ciency. Because bay sizes vary, the example frames can be designed with different participating bays in each direction, which will result in different sizes of beams and columns for each frame depending on location. This example explores the design of a single frame and a single connection of that frame. Assumptions related to base-of-column rotational restraint (assumed fi xed), applied forces (taken from the base example assumptions), and applied wind force (not considered) are all incorporated into the example in “silent” consideration. Beam and column element sizes were determined using a linear elastic computer model of the building. These element sizes were determined through iteration such that code-required drift limits, element characteristics, and strength requirements were met.

While this example is accurate and appropriate for the design of steel SMF structures, different methodologies for analysis, connection design, and inelastic behavior can be utilized, including the use of proprietary SMF connection design. This example does not explore every possible option, nor is it intended to be integrated with other examples in this document (i.e. Base Plate Design, Passive Energy Dissipation).

Figure 1–3 depicts the design spectral acceleration determined from T, which is greater than TS, so the design spectral acceleration Sa is 0.70g.

ASCE 7 Section 12.8.2 indicates that the fundamental period of the structure “can be established using the structural properties and deformational characteristics of the resisting elements in a properly substantiated analysis,” which might allow a linear elastic modal analysis to suffi ce. Section 12.8.2, however, limits the period that can be used to calculate spectral acceleration to a value of Tmax = Cu × Ta, where Cu is a factor found in Table 12.8–1. In this case Tmax = 1.4 × 0.86 = 1.20 sec. For preliminary design, the approximate period, Ta, will be used to design the SMF. As SMF designs are heavily dependent on meeting drift requirements, the initial value (usually found to be much lower than the period found through mathematical modeling) will suffi ce for the fi rst design iteration.
