Title SEISMIC RESPONSE ESTIMATION BASED ON PUSH OVER ANALYSIS FOR SPACE FRAMES COVERD WITH MEMBRANE ROOF ?An Example for s Single Layer Cylindrical Roof Structure ?
Author Shoji Nakazawa,Shiro Kato,Tatsuya Yoshino
Summary This paper discusses, based on a push-over analysis, the seismic response estimation of a single layer cylindrical roof structure supported with a substructure. First, time history response analysis has been carried out for evaluation of seismic performance and response characteristics of a frame-supported membrane structure supported by substructure. From the comparison between the estimation method presented here and the time-domain nonlinear analysis including plastic deformation of the substructure, the accuracy and the applicability of this method are examined.
