The Two-Stage Design Method of Isolated Structures Based on New Code for Seismic Design of Buildings
Abstract:
Two-stage design method for base isolation structures includes simplified estimation and time history analysis. Simplified estimation is used in preliminary design stage for estimating the weight and the first period of an isolated structure, the upper structure is simplified as a SDOF system. According to the expected response reduction goals and response spectrum, the first period of the isolated structure, stiffness of isolation device and number of isolation bearing can be induced. Time history analysis is employed in detail design stage, for determination and optimization of isolation device based on current standards. The author has made it realized based on the old Seismic Code. As there are some changes of provision on base isolation analysis in new code, including the value of bearing stiffness and safety factor, etc., the method mentioned above should be updated. Numerical investigation shows that for regular multi-storey frame structures, the difference of the maxium ratio of floor shear between the old and new Seismic Code increase with fortification intensity.
