Collapse of the displacement demand applies equally to the standard damaged oscillators (whether the corresponding Takeda oscillator and to Takeda oscillators that exhibit undamaged oscillator collapsed or not) is indicated by a pinching.

However, this variability is insignificant in the context of variability arising from other sources. For example, the hysteresis model and earthquake ground motion have a greater effect on response displacements than the variability arising due to prior damage. Figures 6 32 to 6 34 indicate how different the peak displacement response of undamaged Takeda and bilinear models can be to a given earthquake. Figure 6 57 shows the percentage of TakedalO oscillators that reached their collapse displacement. It can be observed that 10% or more of those structures designed to achieve a displacement ductility of two collapsed. This indicates the need to ensure that structures having negative post yield stiffnesses remain nearly elastic if collapse is to be avoided. Strength reduction tends to increase the tendency of the oscillators to collapse. No clear trend emerges as to the effect of PDD on the tendency of these oscillators to collapse. 6.5 Nonlinear Static Procedures 6.5.1 Introduction Nonlinear static analysis is used to estimate inelastic response quantities without undertaking the effort required for inelastic dynamic analyses. Several methods are presently in use. No consensus has emerged as to the applicability and relative accuracy of the methods, which are collectively known as nonlinear static procedures (NSP) These procedures each focus 155 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Technical Resources 155 Chapter 6: Analytical Studies Collapse Percentage for RSR=1 X 8, v > 8O2 6 6; E.

Procedures Section 6.5.2 describes three nonlinear static methods; The methods are briefly described in this section for displacement coefficient, secant, and capacity spectrum cases assumed to correspond most closely to the methods. Differences among the methods and the dynamic analysis framework of Section 6.3.3, implications for estimating displacements are discussed representing wall buildings at the collapse prevention in Section 6.5.3. Assumptions made to extend the performance level. The reader is referred to FEMA 273 methods to cases with prior damage are discussed in for greater detail on the displacement coefficient Section 6.5.4. Displacement estimates obtained using method, and to ATC 40 for greater detail on the secant and capacity spectrum methods. The displacement FEMA307 Technical Resources Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 6: Analytical Studies coefficient method described here is the same as in FEMA 273. 6.5.2.1 Displacement Coefficient Method The displacement coefficient method estimates peak inelastic displacement response as the product of a series of coefficients and the elastic spectral displacement. The peak displacement estimate, dd, is given by dd = COCIC2C3Sa@); (6 2) where coefficients C0 through C3 modify the spectral displacement, given by the product of the elastic spectral acceleration, Sa, and (Te 21t) 2, where T, is an effective period based on the effective stiffness determined using the construction of Figure 6 58. In the above, C0 relates the spectral displacement and the expected roof displacement, and is set at 1 for SDOF systems. The coefficient C1 accounts for the amplification of peak displacement for short period systems, is set at 1 for T, > Tg, and is computed as follows for T, < Tg: Cl = 1 + (1 1 Tg (6 33 where R = the strength reduction factor, given by the ratio of the elastic base shear force and the effective Fye Fye 0.6 Fye Pushover ye yI Displacement yield strength, Fyes illustrated in Figure 6 58. An optional limit of 2 on C1 was not applied in the analyses described here. The coefficient C2 accounts for the type of hysteretic response. At the collapse prevention performance level, C2 varies linearly between 1.5 at 0.1 sec and 1.2 at Tg. and remains at 1.2 for T, greater than Tg. The coefficient C3 accounts for increases in displacements that arise when P A effects are significant. Because the dynamic analyses did not include second order effects, C3 was assigned a value of 1. However, the Takeda 10 models had a negative post yield stiffness of 10 percent, which approximates P A effects 6.5.2.2 Secant Method The secant method assumes that the peak displacement response of a nonlinear system can be estimated as the peak response of an elastic system having increased period. An idealized lateral force displacement curve for the structure is developed using a static pushover" analysis. The elastic response of the structure is computed using a response spectrum analysis, using initial component stiffness values. The resulting elastic displacements are used to obtain revised stiffness values for the components, set equal to the secant stiffness defined at the intersections of the component force displacement curves and the elastic displacements obtained from the response spectrum analysis. Using these revised stiffness values, another response spectrum analysis is performed, and iterations continue Force I y PDDAy Displacement Figure 6 58 Construction of Effective Stiffness for use with the Displacement Coefficient Method FEMVA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 6: Analytical Studies Force Ax PDDAy Displacement Figure 6 59 Initial Effective Stiffness and Capacity Curves Used in the Secant and Capacity Spectrum Methods Force or Spectral Pseudo Acceleration 5% Damped Elastic Spectrum Pushover Curve Peak Displacement Estimate Displacement or Spectral Displacement Figure 6 60 Schematic Depiction of Secant Method Displacement Estimation until the displacements converge.

The structure is the oscillator. The intersection of the previous assumed to displace until it reaches an elastic demand displacement estimate with the idealized force curve that has damping that corresponds to a value displacement curve of the structure defines a new secant based on the current displacement estimate.

In the form presented in ATC 40, secant method displacement estimates are independent of hysteretic model. Through changes in coefficient C2, changes in the force displacement model may be incorporated in the displacement coefficient method. Differences in hysteresis model are accounted for in the capacity spectrum method adjusting effective damping for three structural behavior types." 6.5.4 Application of Procedures to Undamaged and Damaged Oscillators Each procedure presumes that a smoothed, elastic design response spectrum is to be used in practice. To avoid uncertainties in interpretation of results, the actual pseudo acceleration spectra were used in place of a smoothed approximation in this study. For the capacity spectrum method, the actual pseudo acceleration spectra were computed for a range of damping levels, and the spectral reduction factors that are prescribed for use with smoothed design spectra were not employed. These modifications introduce some scatter in the resulting displacement estimates that would not occur if smoothed spectra had been used. Thus, some smoothing" of the data may be appropriate when interpreting the results. The NSPs were developed for use with undamaged structures. In this study, the NSPs were applied to the initially damaged structures using the assumptions described below, representing one of many approaches that can be taken. Recommended procedures for estimating displacements are described in Section 4.4 of FEMA 306. For the displacement coefficient method, the capacity curve was obtained by the procedure described in FEMA 273. For the uncracked oscillators, a bilinear curve was fit, crossing at 60% of the bilinear curve yield strength. For the damaged oscillators, the effective period of vibration was set at the initial period of the damaged oscillators. Displacements were amplified by the factor Cl without imposing the optional limit of 2 specified in the provisions. The secant method was applied iteratively. For undamaged oscillators, the initial stiffness was the yield point secant stiffness. For damaged oscillators, it was set at the secant stiffness obtained at the displacement imposed by prior ductility demands. The initial stiffness of the damaged oscillators therefore reflected the previous damage. The capacity spectrum method was also applied iteratively, beginning with the same initial oscillator stiffness used in the secant method. Effective damping was determined by using the yield point of the undamaged oscillators. The capacity spectrum method was implemented for an intermediate building characteristic, identified as Type B. This type is considered to represent average existing buildings subjected to short duration motions and new buildings subjected to long duration motions. For this type, effective damping is limited to 29% of critical damping. For both the capacity spectrum and the secant stiffness methods, 10 iterations were performed for each structure. These iterations generally converged on a single result, and differences in successive approximations were typically less than 1%. On occasion, differences in successive approximations were large, suggesting a lack of convergence due to the jagged nature of the actual (not smoothed) spectra. Where these differences occurred, the displacement estimate at the tenth iteration was retained. 6.6 Comparison of NSP and Dynamic Analysis Results 6.6.1 Introduction In evaluating the utility of the NSPs, attention may be directed at two estimates. The first is peak displacement response; it could be expected that an acceptable procedure would estimate the peak displacement response, dd, of a nonlinear system within acceptable limits of accuracy. Second, it is possible that a procedure may be systematically biased, and hence may estimate displacement response poorly while providing reasonable estimates of displacement ratio; that is, the ratio of damaged structure displacement to undamaged structure displacement, d dldd. These response indices, dd and d d dd, are examined in detail in the following sections for Takeda oscillators designed for bilinear DDDs of 8. 6.6.2 Displacement Estimation Peak displacement response of the undamaged Takeda oscillators was estimated for each earthquake record. The ratio of the peak displacement estimate from NSP Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 6: Analytical Studies and the value computed for each Takeda5 oscillator, at each period and for each ground motion record, is plotted in Figure 6 63 for DDD = 8 and RSR = 1. The log scale plots the ratio of estimated and computed displacement, ddNsp dd. Plots are presented for each ground motion category and for each NSP. In Figure 6 63, it can be observed that the ratio of the estimated and computed displacements, ddNspldd, can vary significantly, ranging from less than 0.3 to more than 100. At any period ratio, the ratio ddNsp dd may approach or exceed an order of magnitude. Because the trends tend to be consistent for each ground motion record, the jaggedness of the actual spectra does not appear to be the source of most of the variability. Figure 6 64 plots mean values of ratios dd NSPldd determined for each NSP, for all ground motions and all DDD values. Results for short and long period Takeda5 oscillators are plotted separately. In Figure 6 64, it can be observed that the NSP procedures tend to overestimate, in a mean sense, the displacements computed for the short period Takeda5 oscillators for all DDD. Takeda oscillators having DDD = 1 often displaced less than their bilinear counterparts because the Takeda oscillators had initial stiffness equal to twice that of their bilinear counterparts. The difference in initial stiffness explains the tendency of the NSP methods to overestimate displacements for low DDD. This is particularly true for the secant method estimates of short period oscillators, for which mean ratios exceeded six for DDD greater than 1. The period ratio, Te Tg, marking the boundary of the elevated estimates tends to be less than one, possibly reflecting the effective increase in period of Takeda5 oscillators as their stiffness reduces (Figure 6 63) Figure 6 64 indicates that each NSP tends to overestimate the displacement response of short period oscillators and that the capacity spectrum method is most accurate for long period Takeda5 oscillators, in a mean sense. Nevertheless, Figure 6 63 indicates the substantial variability in displacement estimates and the potential to overestimate or underestimate displacements with all methods. A single estimate cannot capture the breadth of response variability that may occur at a given site. Based on Figures 6 63 and 6 64, the coefficient and capacity spectrum methods appear to be reasonably accurate and to have the least scatter. The secant method tended to overestimate displacement and exhibited more scatter in values of ddNSPdd 6.6.3 Displacement Ratio Estimation The ratio of damaged oscillator displacement, d d, and the displacement of the corresponding Takeda oscillator having no initial damage, dd, was estimated using the NSP methods for each Takeda oscillator earthquake pair, as described in Section 6.5.4. This estimated displacement ratio is compared with the ratio computed from the dynamic analyses in Figures 6 65 through 6 73. It can be observed that simple application of the displacement coefficient method using the initial stiffness of the undamaged oscillator to calculate dd and using the reduced stiffness of the damaged oscillator to calculate d d almost always overestimates the effects of damage for the cases considered. Application of the secant and capacity spectrum methods, using the initial and reduced stiffness values, typically led to nearly identical displacement estimates: estimates of d dldd were often approximately equal to one. Figures 6 68 through 6 73, which might appear to testify to the success of the methods, instead tend more to represent the inverse of the d dldd as computed for the Takeda models. Figures 6 38 through 6 40 indicate that computed values of ddld d should tend to be around one, decreasing slightly for small periods. The preceding plots examine the effectiveness of the methods, as implemented here, for estimating the consequences of prior ductility demand. It is also of interest to examine the effectiveness of the methods in accounting for strength loss. To do this, the ratio of the displacement obtained with RSR = 0.6 to that with RSR = 1.0 was evaluated for the nonlinear Takeda5 oscillators having DDD = 8 and PDD = 1, in order to compare the NSP estimates of the displacement ratio with the displacement ratio computed for the nonlinear Takeda5 oscillators. The upper plots in Figures 6 74 through 6 82 show the estimated displacement ratio for one of the three NSPs, and the lower plots of these figures normalize this displacement ratio by the displacement ratio computed for the Takeda5 oscillators. It can be observed that the NSP methods tend to account correctly for the effect of strength reduction on displacement response, in a mean sense.

Forward directivity motions may have larger displacement response in the long period range than would be predicted by the equal displacement rule. The strength reduction factor, R, appropriate for forward directivity motions may need to be reduced somewhat relative to other classes of motion if ductility demands are to be held constant. The displacements of the Takeda oscillators were sometimes several fold greater or less than those of the bilinear oscillators. Although it is fundamentally important to consider displacements in seismic response, variability of the response estimates as affected by ground motions and hysteresis model must also be considered. Previous damage, modeled as prior ductility demand, did not generally cause large increases in displacement response when the Takeda models with positive post yield stiffness were exposed to performance level earthquakes associated with life safety or collapse prevention. Prior ductility demands were found to cause mean changes in displacement response ranging from 3% to +10% for the Takeda5 and TakPinch oscillators having no strength degradation (Figures 6 55 and 6 56) PDDs of 8 often caused a slight decrease in the displacement response computed using the Takeda5 and TakPinch models; response infrequently was 20% to 30% or more higher than that for the undamaged oscillator. For oscillators having cyclic strength degradation, represented by the TakPinch oscillators, the effect of strength degradation was generally to increase the mean displacement response, but only by a few percent. The mean increase was larger for the structures having lower DDD, reaching as much as 21% for oscillators having RSR = 0.6. This result merely indicates that strength degradation tends to cause displacement response to increase relative to undamaged or nondegrading systems. Further examination revealed that increasing PDD increases or decreases the mean response of TakPinch systems with strength degradation by only a few percent (Figure 6 56) The weaker oscillators, represented by larger DDD, are more likely to exhibit damage in a real earthquake, and to have smaller increases in displacement due to prior ductility demands. While prior damage causes relatively small changes in mean displacement response relative to undamaged structures, it also introduces some variability in displacement response. Variability in response is inherent in earthquake resistant design, and the variability introduced by prior damage should be considered in the context of variability arising from different ground motions, choice of hysteretic models, modeling assumptions, and other sources. For example, Figures 6 32 to 6 34 illustrate the degree to which different earthquakes can cause bilinear and Takeda oscillators of equal strength to have substantially different peak displacement response. Thus, the variability in response introduced by prior damage is not considered significant. Three NSPs for estimating peak displacement response were applied to the Takeda oscillators. Significant variability in the estimated displacements, when compared with the values calculated from nonlinear dynamic analysis, underscores the difficulty in accurately estimating response of a SDOF system to a known ground motion. The accuracy of the NSP estimates is compared in Figure 6 63. In Figure 6 64 it can be observed that the capacity spectrum and coefficient methods are more accurate, in a mean sense, than the secant method, and that all methods tend to overestimate the displacement response of short period Takeda5 oscillators. The NSPs were also used to estimate the change in displacement caused by a prior earthquake. Given the relatively small effect of damage on peak displacement response, it appears that damaged structures should be modeled similar to their undamaged counterparts, in order to obtain identical displacement estimates for performance events that are stronger than the damaging event. This results in damage having no effect on the displacement response, which closely approximates the analytical results. The accuracy with which an NSP accounts for strength reduction was explored. It was found that each NSP was reasonably able to capture the effect of strength reduction. The above findings pertain to systems characterized by ductile flexural response having degrading stiffness, with and without pinching. Systems with negative post yield stiffness were prone to collapse, even with DDD of 2. Such systems should remain nearly elastic if their collapse is to be avoided.

FEMA 307 Technical Resources Example Application 7. 7.1 Introduction This section gives an example of the use of FEMA 306 recommendations to evaluate earthquake damage in a two story reinforced concrete building. The example is meant to be as realistic as possible and is based on an actual structure. 7.1.1 Objectives The example is intended to help evaluating engineers understand such issues as: the overall process of a FEMA 306 evaluation. accounting for pre existing damage. how both observation and analysis are used in the evaluation procedures. determining and using the applicable FEMA 306 Component Damage Classification Guides, including cases where an exactly applicable damage guide is not provided. foundation rocking of walls, which may be a prevalent behavior mode in many structures. some of the ways engineering judgment may need to be applied. how restoration measures can be determined based on either the direct method or the performance analysis method. aspects of using a nonlinear static procedure of analysis (pushover analysis) establishing displacement capacities and demands. Reading through the example could be the best introduction to an understanding of the FEMA 306 evaluation process. References to the applicable sections of FEMA 306 or 307 (or to other sources) are given in "bookmark" boxes adjacent to the text. Because the example is meant to be illustrative, it contains more description and explanation than would normally be contained in an engineer s evaluation report for an earthquake damaged building. It should be clear from this example that the FEMA 306 recommendations for evaluating earthquake damage must be implemented under the direction of a knowledgeable structural engineer, particularly when a performance analysis is carried out. The responsible engineer should have a thorough understanding of the principles behind the FEMA 306 recommendations and should be familiar with the applicable earthquake research and post earthquake field observations. FEMA 307 provides tabular bibliographies and additional information on applicable research. A fundamental tenet of the component evaluation methods presented in FEMA 306 is that the severity of damage in a structural component may not be determined without understanding the governing behavior mode of the component, and that the governing behavior mode is a function not only of the component s properties, but of its relationship and interaction with surrounding components in a structural element. In the following sections, the evaluation of the example building emphasizes the importance of this principle. There may be a temptation among users of FEMA 306 to use the damage classification guides as simple graphical keys to damage, and to complete the analysis by simply matching the pictures in the guides to the observed damage. The example is intended to show that this is not the appropriate use of the guides. It is organized to emphasize the importance of the analytical and observation verification process that is an essential element of the evaluation procedure. 7.1.2 Organization The example is organized as shown in the flow chart of Figure 7 1. This organization follows the overall evaluation procedure outlined in FEMA 306, beginning with a building description and observations of earthquake damage. The building has been subjected to a previous earthquake. The damage investigation establishes the preexisting conditions so that the loss from the recent earthquake can be evaluated. The preliminary classification of component types, behavior modes, and damage severity are made by observing the structure. It is shown, however, that classification of behavior modes, and hence damage severity, may be unclear when based on observation alone. Simple analytical tools provided in the material chapters of FEMA 306 are used to verify the expected component types and behavior modes, and damage severity is assigned accordingly. The steps required to estimate the loss by the direct method are FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application 00 Nl 04.l 4 Evaluation by Performance Analysis 3vlainb h 4.1 4.2 Performance Objectives Nonlinear static analysis 4.3 Pushover capacity curve 4.4 Estimate of d9, the displacement caused by the damaging earthquake 4.5 Displacement demand 4.6 Analysis of the restored structure 4.7 Performance restoration measures Figure 7 1 Flowchart for example FEMA 307 Resources FEMA 307 182Technical Technical Resources 182 Chapter 7: Example Application illustrated, and a relative performance analysis is carried out. It is emphasized that the direct method provides only loss estimation information, and that a relative performance analysis is required in order to make performance based design decisions. Damage records for all of the structural walls of the building are included. The damage records for two of the walls are discussed in detail. Damage records for the remaining walls are given at the end of the example. 7.2 Investigation 7.2.1 Building Description The example building is a two story concrete building located on a sloping site. The building is aT" shape in plan with the stem of the T on the downhill side, containing a partial lower story below the other two stories. The building was designed and constructed in the late 1950s. The building is located about 3.6 miles from the epicenter of the damaging earthquake. The overall plan dimensions of the building are 362 feet in the North South direction by 299 feet in the East West direction. The floor slabs cantilever about 6 feet from the perimeter columns forming exterior sun screens balconies. The building facade along the perimeter is set back 8 feet from the edge of the slab. For the typical floor, the interior floor area is about 62, 600 square feet, and the total slab area is about 70, 400 square feet. The lower level encompasses about 20, 200 square feet. Floor plans are shown in Figure 7 2 and an elevation is shown in Figure 7 3. The roof of the building supports mechanical equipment. The floors and roof are constructed with waffle slabs comprised of a 4 % inch thick slab and 14 inch deep pans (18 2 inches total depth) Columns supporting the slabs are typically spaced at 26 feet in each direction. The interior columns are 18 inch square and the perimeter columns are 18 inch diameter. The columns are supported on spread footings. Reinforced concrete walls in both directions of the building resist lateral forces. The walls are 12 inches thick and are cast monolithically at each end with the gravity load carrying columns. The walls are typically located along corridors, and the corridor side of the wall has a 1 inch thick plaster coat. The typical solid wall configuration and reinforcement are shown in Figure 7 4. In the lower level there are several reinforced concrete masonry (CMU) walls that are framed between the ground and the first floor slab (basement level) in the three story section of the building. The CMU walls are attached to the first floor slab. However, these walls were not designed as shear resisting elements. Because the first floor slab is anchored to the foundation in the two story portion of the building, the contribution of the CMU walls to the lateral force resistance, particularly in the east west direction, is minimal. Several of the reinforced concrete walls have door openings, 7 feet 3 inches tall by 6 feet 6 inches wide, in the middle of the wall, creating a coupled wall. The typical coupled wall configuration and reinforcement are shown in Figure 7 5. In the three story section of the building (the stem of the T), the walls are discontinued at the lower level. This lower level contains a single reinforced concrete wall in the north south direction centered between the two walls above. 7.2.2 Post earthquake Damage Observations Following the damaging earthquake, Visual the engineers performed a post earth observation, quake evaluation of the building. The GuideNDE1, initial survey was conducted one Section 3.8 month after the damaging earthquake. of FEMA306 The structural drawings for the building were reviewed. The follow up investigations were conducted about three months following the earthquake. The post earthquake evaluations were conducted using visual observation techniques on exposed surfaces of the structural elements. The sections of wall above the ceiling were typically observed only where the suspended ceiling tiles had fallen during the earthquake. Crack widths were measured at selected locations using magnifying crack comparators for most of the significant cracks in each wall. 7.2.2.1 Pre Earthquake Conditions The building had experienced some l cracking prior to the damaging earth vs. new quake. The pre existing damage is cracks, judged to have been caused by a previous Section 3.4 earthquake. The heaviest damage of FEMA306 appeared to have been in the coupling beams. The wall cracks above the ceiling line were observed to have been repaired by epoxy injection. 183 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Technical Resources 183 Chapter 7: Example Application T (yP) a) First and Second Floor Plan Reinforced Edge of Floor Slab b) Basement Floor Plan Figure 7 2 Floor Plans 1 844 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application I 11 I I I, 12nd I r E r r 1l T 1 list If Figure 7 3 Building Cross section 13 f ars (13in. 1 6 IL.

In FEMA 306 this case, the example building is reinforced concrete, so the summary of relevant component types is found in Sections 2.4 and 5.2.1 of FEMA 306. 7.2.3.1 Component Types The first pass in the identification process is conducted by observation, keeping in mind that the definition of a component type is not a function of the geometry alone, but of the governing mechanism of lateral deformation for the entire element or structure. Thus the identification of structural components requires consideration of the wall element over multiple floor levels. Complete diagrams showing the crack pattern over multiple floor levels such as the ones shown in the attached damage records shown in Figures 7-6, 7-7 and Damage Records D1 through D19 (Appendix A) are essential. For the typical coupled wall elements of the example building, shown in Component Figure 7-7, a survey of the element identification, geometry and the general pattern of FEMA 306 damage suggests that the beams over the openings may be classified as weaker coupling beams (RC3), and that the wall piers flanking the openings will behave as two-story cantilever components (RC 1). The thought process that leads to this conclusion includes the recognition that the beam elements are likely to be weaker than the walls on either side of the coupling beams, as well as a mental visualization of the lateral deformation of the walls and the attendant large deformation demands on the beams. As shown in Figure 7-6, the solid reinforced concrete wall component is type RCL. 7.2.3.2 Behavior Modes and Damage Severity Once the component types have been identified, an initial classification of the Behavior modes and damage severity modes, Table 5-2 of may be made by inspecting the visible FEMA 306 damage with reference to the component damage classification guides. Tables 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3 of FEMA 306 are also helpful in identifying behavior modes appropriate to the identified components. For the typical coupled wall shown in Figure 7-7, the coupling beam component (RC3) on the second floor is observed to have light diagonal (shear) cracking, with little or no evidence of flexural cracking. As is typical of a building designed in the late 1950s, the coupling beam does not contain diagonal reinforcement, or even sufficient stirrup reinforcement, so mode A (ductile flexure) may be safely eliminated. The diagonal cracks then suggest that the behavior mode may be either mode B (flexure/diagonal tension) or mode H (preemptive diagonal tension). At the first floor coupling beams, the damage is more severe, but the behavior mode still appears to be either B or H. In the first floor coupling beam, identification of the damage severity is relatively - Component straightforward: the observed Guides, Section 5.5 damage would be classified as Heavy of FEMA 306 regardless of the behavior mode. In many cases, however, the damage severity level may depend on the behavior mode. In the second floor coupling beam, for example, the damage would be classified as Insignificant if the behavior mode is identified as B (flexure followed by diagonal tension), but as Moderate if the behavior mode is identified as H (preemptive diagonal tension). Similarly, the wall piers of the coupled walls (RC1) have light diagonal cracking, which may be indicative of early stages of mode B (flexure/diagonal tension), early stages of mode C (flexure/diagonal compression) or more advanced stages of mode H (preemptive diagonal tension). In the first two cases, damage would be classified as Insignificant, while in the last case, damage would be classified as Moderate. It is often not possible to distinguish between the different behavior modes, and hence the damage severity, with- out some analysis. This is particularly important for lower levels of damage Verification Loop 1, 3 f EMA 306 where different modes may look very much alike, but which have different response at higher levels of damage. Consider, for example, modes B and H. The flexural cracks that initiate mode B response may have closed and become nearly invisible. The light diagonal cracking that occurs at the outset of both modes B and H will then be indistinguishable from one another, and only analysis of the section will differentiate the two modes, and hence the severity of damage. In other cases, the differences between modes are of less importance - FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application Modes B and C are physically different, but have a similar effect on the stiffness, strength, and deformation capacity of the component at all levels of damage severity. 7.2.4 Final Classification (by Analysis) of Component Type, Behavior Mode and Damage Severity In the previous section, component type, behavior mode, and damage severity were preliminarily defined based only on observation. In this section, those definitions are verified by calculation. In practice, iterations between observation and analysis may be needed to interpret correctly the seismic response and damage. 7.2.4.1 Expected Strength The expected pre-earthquake strengths for each of the components were calculated - Expected using the FEMA 306 strength, Section 3.6 Section 3.6 procedures. The design of FEMA 306 concrete strength was shown on the drawings to be 3000 psi. According to the discussion in FEMA 306, Section 5.3.2, expected concrete strengths ranging from 1.0 to 2.3 times the specified strength are not unrealistic. In the example building, concrete strength was suspect, so tests were conducted which revealed that expected strength was, in fact, near the specified strength. For the purposes of the following analysis an expected strength of 3000 psi was assumed. Based on the drawing notes, reinforcing bars had a specified yield strength of 40 ksi. The expected strength of the reinforcing bars was assumed to be greater than the nominal yield strength by a factor of 1.25, so a value of 50 ksi was used for the yield strength in all calculations. If, during the course of the analysis, it becomes difficult to reconcile analytically determined behavior modes with observed damage, assumed values for material strength may need to be re-evaluated or verified through tests. There are two typical element types in the lateral-force- resisting system, solid walls and coupled walls. The following sections describe the details of the calculations and methodology used to classify the components of these elements. 7.2.4.2 Example 1 -Solid Wall (28-2C) Once a preliminary damage classification has been made by visual observation, it will generally be necessary to perform some analysis to distinguish between behavior modes that are different but visually similar. As a first example, consider the damage record for the wall shown in Figure 7-6. The wall is 12 inches thick with 18-inch square boundary elements at each end. The wall length from center to center of the boundary elements is 26 feet, and the story height is 13 feet-6 inches. Note that the wall is L-shaped in plan and has a 26-foot return along line B. Component Type. The definition of this wall as a single RC 1 component (isolated wall or stronger wall pier) is easily and intuitively verified by sketching the inelastic deformation mechanism for the wall and its surrounding structure. The slabs framing into the wall clearly do not have the stiffness or strength to force a "weaker wall" type of behavior. The wall is therefore a single component with a height of 27 feet. Behavior Mode. The preliminary classification identified four possible Component behavior modes for this component guides, that were consistent with the component - and RC2H, type and the observed damage: Section 5.5 mode B (flexure/diagonal tension), of FEMA 306 mode C (flexure/diagonal compression), mode H (preemptive diagonal tension), and mode M (foundation rocking). For each of these behavior modes, Component Guides provide, in addition to the visual description of the different behavior modes, guidance in the analytical steps required to verify a particular behavior mode. See for example the Component Damage Classification Guide RClB under "How to distinguish behavior mode by analysis". Based on the recommendations of the guide, the shear associated with the development of the maximum strength in flexure, diagonal tension, web crushing, and foundation rocking were calculated. Calculation results are summarized in Table 7-1. Selected details of the calculations are provided in the box on page 192. The relationship between capacities of the different potential behavior modes defines the governing component behavior mode. Initially, consider the first five modes listed in Table 7-1, temporarily neglecting the overturning (foundation rocking) response. Because the wall is flanged, its response depends op the direction of seismic force, and the flexural capacity must be calculated for each direction. It is possible that a different behavior mode will govern in each of the two different loading directions. In this example, the diagonal tension strength at low ductility is less than the flexural strength Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application Table7-1 Capacity of Potential Behavior Modes for Typical Solid Wall (2B-2C) Behavior Mode Shear FEMA 306 Comments Capacity Reference (kips) Flexure (modes A & B) -flange 1570 Sect. 5.3.5 All distributed reinforcement is included in compression in the calculation of flexural strength, as is the contribution of the flange reinforcement - Me = 31, 300 k-ft.

However, the overturning value calculated diagonal tension) appears to be the governing the is sufficiently less than the other behavior modes behavior mode. In either direction, web crushing can be to suggest that damage will be limited by rocking on the eliminated as a potential behavior mode since its capacity -foundation. Mode M is therefore the behavior mode for is greater than that of all of the other modes. In the wall. absence of overturning, mode H would therefore be selected as the behavior mode for this component. Damage Severity L. The identification of the rocking behavior mode is important, because the damage severity - Additional calculations indicate, however, that foundation - is different for mode M than for mode H. While rocking (overturning of the wall and its foundation) there is no explicit Component Damage Classification will occur before the other failure modes can develop. Guide provided for the rocking mode-the component This is indicated in the last two rows of Table 7-1, may be considered as roughly analogous to the portion where overturning capacity with the flange in compression -of a flexural wall (mode A) above the plastic hinge is shown to be less than other behavior modes. As region-there is a ductile fuse in the structure below the shown in the example calculations (see sidebar), the component in question that will prevent the development - foundation rocking capacity is based on the static over- of the brittle, force-controlled behavior mode H turning force associated with all tributary gravity loads. by limiting the development of additional seismic force. In reality, there are a number of factors that would Using this analogy, and Component Guide RC1A, the increase the force required to overturn the wall, so the damage severity is classified as Insignificant. Without calculated value may be a lower bound. For example, as the rocking mechanism, the behavior mode would be the foundation lifts, it will pick up an increasing tribu-classified as H, and the damage severity would be Moderate tary area of the surrounding slabs, thus increasing the rather than Insignificant. It is important to note FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application EXAMPLE CALCULATIONS FOR DIFFERENT BEHAVIOR MODES EXAMPLE CALCULATIONS FOR DIFFERENT BEHAVIORMODES EXAMPLE 1 -SOLID WALL Flexure: The boundary elements at each end of the wall have 4-#10 and 7-#1 1 bars. The vertical wall reinforcement is #4 bars at 13" on center in each face. An approximation of the flexural capacity with the flange in compression may be made, assuming that all the steel in the tension boundary and all the wall vertical steel is yielding, as follows: Boundary Wall Verts. Dead Load Me (comp.) = Agfye 'wal + Asvfye, wall/2 + PDL (wall}) Ia.l /2 = (15.3) 50 (26) + (9.2) 50 (13) + (419) 13 = 31, 300k-ft With the flange in tension the capacity increases because of the yielding of the wall vertical reinforcing in the effective flange width assumed to be one half the effective wall height (M/V) plus the wall thickness, or about ten feet. The capacity also increases because of the additional dead load resistance of the flange. An approximation of the flexural capacity with the flange in tension is then: Flange Verts. Flange Dead Load Me (ten.) = Me (comp.) + Asvfye I wall + PDL flange) I wall = 31, 317 + (3.8) 50 (26) + (320) 26 = 44, 600 k-ft These approximations for moment capacities were checked using strain compatibility calculations and found to be acceptable. Using an M/V ratio of 20 ft the shear forces associated with the moment capacities are 1570 k (flange in compression) and 2230 k (flange in tension). Diagonal Tension (Shear Strength) : In order to include the effect of axial load on shear strength, and the potential degradation of the shear in plastic hinge zones, the equations recommended in Section 5.3.6b of FEMA 306 were used to calculate the diagonal tension strength. V =V+V+V p it C An M/V ratio of 20 feet was used (approximately 0.75 times the component height) based on the analysis results for shear and moment. As=41.2 in2 A = 4176in 2 Ps = 0.0098 Thus Equations 5-3 and 5-4 of FEMA 306 yield a= 1.5 krc = 3.5 (low ductility) P= 0.7 krc= 0.6 (high ductility) and the concrete contribution (Equation 5-2) becomes ge Vc = kc/krfc b. (0. 81 ) Vc= 605 kips at low ductility demand Vc = 104 kips at high ductility demand - The steel contribution is given by Equation 5-5: S= pnfyef b h where Pn=.00256, fye = 50 ksi, bw = 12", and hd is limited by the component height of 27'-0". Thus V, =498kips The axial load contribution is given by Equation 5-6. Considering only the structure dead load tributary to the wall (419 kips) VP becomes (I -c) N = (iM I) V = 264 kips (flange in compression) = 249 kips (flange in tension) NOTE: c = 16.8 in. (flange in compression), c = 33 in. (flange in tension) Therefore, Equation 5-1 for the diagonal tension strength gives a value of 1352 kips at low ductility demand, and 851 kips at high ductility demand, both with the flange in tension. Diagonal Compression (Web Crushing) : The web crushing strength is given by Equation 5-7. This equation requires an estimate of the drift ratio to which the component is subjected, with increasing drift corresponding to a decrease in capacity. An upper bound estimate of 1 percent drift is assumed, to get a lower bound on the web crushing strength: 1.8f'b (0.81, ) 2560 kips 1+ (600 -2000 A) 4 Asf' Foundation Rocking (Overturning) : The static overturning calculation includes not only the dead weight of the wall and tributary slabs at the 2nd floor and roof, but also a tributary area of the slab on grade (496 kips total) and the foundation weight (16 kips per footing). When the wall flange is in tension, the weight of the flange and additional DL are included. 1 I V, = Mo, =- (496k (26' 1 2) + 16k (26') ) (M/V) 20 = 343 kips (flange in compression) 1 (M /V) 1 =- (496k (26' / 2) + 446k (26') +16k (26') ) 20 923 kips (flange in tension) Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application that the damage severity is not a function of the observed crack pattern alone -the governing behavior mode must be known before a judgement of the damage severity can be made. 7.2.4.3 Example 2 -Coupled Wall (7L-7M) As an example of the second typical wall element type, consider the damage record for the coupled wall shown in Figure 7-7. Like the solid wall example, the wall is 12 inches wide with 18-inch-square boundary elements at each end. However, there is a 6'-6" wide by 7-3" tall opening in the center of the wall at each floor. The wall length from center to center of the boundary elements is 26 feet, and the story height is 13'-6". The coupled wall has an L-shaped plan with a 26-foot flange along line M. The coupling beam and wall are similar to the example shown in Figure 7-5, except that this particular coupled wall is discontinuous below the first floor and is supported on 24-inch-square reinforced-concrete columns at the basement. Component Type. Visual observation leads to the division of this structural element into two RC1 wall piers and two RC3 coupling beams. Analysis will verify that the beams are weaker than the walls, and thus that the initial classification is valid. Behavior Mode. In the preliminary classification, the coupling beams were designated by observation as mode B (flexure / diagonal tension) or mode H (preemptive diagonal tension), and the wall piers were designated as mode B (flexure / diagonal tension), mode C (flexure / diagonal compression), mode H (preemptive diagonal tension), or mode N (individual pier rocking). As in the first example, the shears associated with the development of the maximum strength in flexure, diagonal tension, and web crushing were calculated, with results summarized in Tables 7-2 and 7-3. Selected details of the calculations are provided for reference on pages 196 through 198. Looking first at the RC3 coupling beam component, the calculation results shown in Table 7-2 indicate that the shear strength will be reached before the development of the moment strength, even at low ductility levels, so the behavior mode H (preemptive diagonal tension) governs. For the RC1 wall pier components, the calculations and discussions that follow show that behavior mode N, individual pier rocking, governs the seismic response. For the piers of the coupled wall, which discontinue below the first floor and are supported on basement columns, this behavior mode involves the yielding in flexure of the basement columns and the coupling beams reaching their capacity in shear. The wall pier rotates about the supporting column in a manner similar to Table 7-2 Capacity of Potential Behavior Modes for Typical Coupling Beam Coupling Beams RC3 Behavior Mode Limiting Component Shear (kips) FEMA 306 Reference Comments Flexure (mode A) Me=1210 k-ft 373 Sect. 5.3.5 Note that slab reinforcement was ignored in the calculation of the beam flexure capacity. Since preemptive shear governs (242 < 373), this is irrelevant. A more accurate calculation would be warranted if the capacities in the different modes were similar. Diagonal Tension (B and H) -242 Sect. 5.3.6b Governing capacity at low flexural ductility Diagonal Tension (B) -at high flexural ductility 137 Sect. 5.3.6b This capacity does not govern since flexural yielding does not occur.

The relevant diagonal tension capacities are those at low ductility. The diagonal tension capacities of 31 1k (RCl @7L-load to west) to 328k (RC 1@7M-load to east) for the wall piers subject to axial tension are similar to the shear demands in the pier rotation mode after failure of the coupling beams; however, there is significant capacity of 690k (RC1 @7L-load to east) to 692k (RC1 @7M load to west) in diagonal tension on the corresponding compression sides of the wall. A diagonal tension failure cannot fully develop on one side of the coupled wall without transferring lateral forces to the other side of the wall. Considering that shear can be transferred as axial forces in the coupling beam and slab according to the stiffness and strength of each wall pier, the sum of wall pier component strengths on each side of the coupled wall can be used to determine the governing behavior mode. For the individual pier rotation behavior, the associated total shear demand is 630k on the coupled wall element. For a diagonal tension behavior mode occurring in both wall piers, the associated shear capacity is 1003k to 1018k. Diagonal tension failure will not govern, since the pier rotation behavior mode occurs at a lower total lateral load. Thus, the results of the analytical calculations indicate the pier rotation (N) is the governing behavior mode for the RC1 components. This analytical conclusion agrees with field observation. The degree of diagonal cracking observed in the wall pier RC1 components is consistent with substantial shear stress, but less than that which might be expected for diagonal tension failure. Damage Severity. For the RC3 components behaving in mode H, the damage classification guides indicate that the observed damage is moderate in the second story and heavy in the first story coupling beam. In the wall piers, the protection of the element by a ductile mode (similar to mode N, Foundation Rocking) in surrounding components places them in an insignificant damage category. 7.2.5 Other Damage Observations Several of the walls were observed to have horizontal cracks just below the roof slab and/or the second-floor slab. In addition to new cracks of this type, a few walls had pre-existing horizontal cracks below the slabs, which had been repaired by epoxy injection. The widest of these horizontal cracks occurred under the roof slab of the wall on column lines 7C-7D, as shown in the Component Damage Record D3. The engineer in the field indicated that joint movement occurred at this crack and suspected that sliding shear behavior may have occurred. Subsequent thinking by the evaluating engineers about this observation, however, weighed against the conclusion of sliding shear behavior. The crack was not observed to extend into the boundary columns of the wall, and there was no evidence of lateral offset at the boundary columns. While the crack is located near a likely construction joint where poor construction practice can exacerbate sliding shear behavior, the crack is not located in the maximum moment region of the wall. As is indicated in FEMA 306, sliding shear behavior is most likely to occur after flexural yielding has occurred. For this wall, flexural yielding would initiate at the base of the wall where moments are at a maximum, not at the top. In any case, foundation rocking preempts flexural yielding for the typical solid wall, as indicated previously in this example. A quick calculation of sliding shear strength shows that the behavior mode is not expected to govern the wall's response. Given this information, the damage observations are reconsidered, and it is judged that sliding movements did not occur at the horizontal crack. Therefore, the most likely explanation is that these horizontal cracks are caused by earthquake displacements in the out-of- plane direction of the wall. It is judged that the horizontal cracks, whose widths are less than 0.03 inches, do not significantly affect seismic response. 7.2.6 Summary of Component Classifications 7.2.6.1 Solid Walls All wall components of the building are evaluated in a similar manner, as described in the preceding sections. In total, the building has six coupled walls plus five solid walls acting in the North-South direction, and two coupled walls plus six solid walls acting in the East- West direction. The damage records for these walls can be found in Component Damage Records D1-D19 (Appendix A). Each solid wall is a single structural component (RC 1), while each coupled wall has four components: two coupling beams (RC3) and two wall piers (RC1). Thus there are a total of 43 structural wall components in the building, as indicated in Tables 7-4 and 7-5. For each of these, the component type, behavior mode and damage severity is established as described below and shown in the tables. 195 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Technical Resources 195 Chapter 7: Example Application EXAMPLE CALCULATIONS FOR DIFFERENT BEHAVIOR MODES EXAMPLE 2 -COUPLED WALL (7L-7M) COUPLING BEAMS The total diagonal tension strength is then 242 kips at low ductility, and 137 kips at high ductility.

Thus Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application The typical solid walls were calculated to behave in a foundation rocking (or overturning) mode (type M). There are no damage guides for this behavior mode. However, component behavior description in FEMA 306 considers this mode to have moderate to high ductility. The damage associated with this behavior mode may not be apparent based on the observations of the walls. Damage to other structural and nonstructural elements, such as damage to the floor slab at the base or to the beams framing into the ends of the walls, should be used to assess the severity of the mode. Since there was no significant damage to the adjacent structural and nonstructural elements, the damage severity is judged to be Insignificant. 7.2.6.2 Coupling Beams Based on calculations, the behavior mode of the coupling beams is Preemptive Diagonal Tension (Type H). Based on the damage observations and the component guides, the damage for the coupling beams with spalling, bar-buckling, and/or significant cracking was classified as Heavy. For the coupling beams with shear cracking, but no bar-buckling or significant spalling, the damage is Moderate. 7.2.6.3 Wall Piers The walls adjacent to the coupling beams are expected to behave in a mode of individual pier rocking (type N). There are no Component Guides for this behavior mode. However, the component behavior description for this mode of behavior considers this mode to have moderate to high ductility. Similar to the solid shear walls, the lack of damage to the adjacent structural and nonstructural elements was used to classify the damage as Insignificant. 7.3 Evaluation by the Direct Method The effects of damage are quantified by the costs associated with potential Hypothetical repairs (component restoration measures -repairs for), which if implemented, would method, restore the components to their pre- Section 4.6 event condition. In the direct method, of FEMA 306 restoration measures are considered on a component-by-component basis without an analysis of global performance. It is intended to be a simple and approximate approach. The Component Damage Classification Guides in FEMA 306 are used to determine the appropriate potential repairs to restore each component. The potential repairs required to restore the structural performance and nonstructural functionality of the building include both structural and nonstructural (e.g., cosmetic) measures for each damaged component. 7.3.1 Structural Restoration Measures 7.3.1.1 Coupling Beams As shown in Tables 7-4 and 7-5, three of the coupling beams were classified Damage as component type RC3, behavior guide for mode H, having Heavy damage. As Table 5-2 of recommended for this component FEMA306 type, behavior mode, and damage severity, the component restoration measure chosen is to replace these components. The proposed repair would be to remove the concrete at the coupling beam and a portion of the floor slab, install new reinforcing bars, and cast new concrete for the wall. The new reinforcing steel in the coupling beams would be detailed in accordance with the current provisions of the governing building code for coupled shear walls, as shown in Figure 7-8. The coupling beams with Moderate damage could be repaired by epoxy injection of all diagonal shear cracks greater than 10 mils wide, since epoxy injection is recommended for structural restoration using the damage guide for RC3H. Although it is possible to inject smaller cracks, the additional cost does not justify the marginal benefit. Since cracks as large as 12 mils can be tolerated in normal concrete structures (ACI, 1994), the unrepaired cracks should not be detrimental. The length of the cracks to be injected is estimated as 100 feet. 7.3.1.2 Solid Walls The remaining wall components are type N or M. There are no Component Guides for these modes to indicate the appropriate repairs directly. As discussed earlier, these modes have moderate to high ductility capacity. Conservatively, the damage guide for Type B, flexure / diagonal tension, is used since this is a moderate ductility mode, analogous to the actual behavior mode. The Component Guides for the type RC1B components indicate that if cracks are less than 1/16 inch, the damage can be classified as Insignificant, and therefore structural repairs are not necessary. Two of the shear wall components had cracks that exceeded 1/16 inch. This amount of cracking would be classified as Moder- FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application Table 7-4 Summary of Component Type, Behavior Mode, and Damage Severity for Wall Components (North-South Direction) Column Floor Wall Type Component Type and Damage Severity Line Behavior Mode B / 2-3 First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant Coupled First t 0 First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant B I 5-7 First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant First Coupled RC3H Moderate First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant B /10-12 First-Second Coupled RClN Insignificant First Coupled RC3H Moderate First-Second Coupled RClN Insignificant Second> Coupled" j CH" Moderate B /14-15 First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant E /2-3 First- Second Coupled RC 1N Insignificant E / 2-3 First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant irt Second Coupled RC3H Insignificant E 1-5 Second Coupled RC3H Insignificant First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant G I 7-8 First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant G / 9-10 First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant M / 7-8 First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant M / 9-10 First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant M / 8-9 Ground Solid RC1B Insignificant 200 Technical Resources FEMA 307 200 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application Table 7-5 Summary of Component Type, Behavior Mode, and Damage Severity for Wall Components (East-West Direction) Column Floor Wall Type Component Type and Damage Severity Line Behavior Mode 7 /L-M First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant 10/ L-M First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant First-Second Coupled RC1N Insignificant 2/ B-C First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant 2/ D-E First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant 7/ C-D First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant 10/ C-D First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant 15 /B-C First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant 15 / D-E First-Second Solid RC1M Insignificant ate for type B behavior.

The response spectra for the immediate occupancy performance level is also shown in Figure 7-9. It should be noted that these performance objectives do not necessarily correspond to the original criteria used for design of the building. 7.4.2 Nonlinear Static Analysis 7.4.2.1 Computer Model The building is analyzed in its pre-event, post-event and repaired conditions using a three-dimensional computer model. Modeling of the building is done using the recommendations of FEMA 273 and FEMA 306. The model is subjected to a nonlinear static (pushover) analysis to assess its force/displacement response. For this example, the analysis is run only in the East-West direction, which is the direction that experienced the most significant damage. The computer analysis program SAP2000 (CSI, 1997) is used to model the structure. The reinforced concrete walls and coupling beams are modeled using beam elements. The beam elements are located at the center of gravity of each wall section, and are given properties that represent the wall section stiffness. Rigid end offsets are used to model the joint regions in the coupled walls as shown in Figure 7-10. Small models of individual walls are used to verify that the beam elements used to model the walls have approximately the same stiffness and shear distribution as a model using shell elements for the walls. A three dimensional view of the global model is shown in Figure 7-11. The horizontal floor and roof diaphragms are modeled using beam elements, as shown in Figure 7-11, with lumped masses at the nodes. The pushover analysis is conducted by applying static loads at the locations of the lumped masses in a vertical distribution pattern as described in the second option of Section 3.3.3.2 C, of FEMA 273. Sixty percent of the total lateral force is applied to the roof, thirty percent is applied at the second floor, and ten percent is applied at the first floor. The nodal loads are increased proportionally in progressive iterations. When elements reach their strength limit, their stiffness is iteratively reduced to an appropriate secant stiffness and the model is rerun at the same load level until no elements resist loads in excess of their calculated capacities. (Secant stiffness method, see side bar.) The pushover analysis is continued to cover the displacement range of interest, which is based on a preliminary estimate of the maximum displacement demand. A global pushover curve is then produced.

The acceptance limits for the coupling beam components are based on Table 6-17 of FEMA 273 for the case of Component force- displacement relations, FEMA 273 and Sections 4.3 and 4.4 of FEMA 306 "nonconforming", transverse reinforcement, and shear exceeding 6twAwr-.

The pre-event structure is condition, modeled using the effective initial Section 4.4.3.1 of stiffness values recommended in Table 6-4 of FEMA 273. Walls and coupling FEMA 306 COEFFICIENT Either of two methods are recommended for establishing displacement demands for a nonlinear static analysis: the coefficient method and the capacity spectrum method. A description of these methods is included in ATC 40. The coefficient method is also described in FEMA 273, and the coefficient and capacity spectrum methods are described in FEMA 274. Although either method may be used, it is essential for a valid comparison that the same method be used to assess the performance of the pre-earthquake, post-earth- quake, and repaired structure, as outlined in FEMA 306. In this example, the coefficient method is used. In this method, a target displacement, dt is calculated and compared to the displacement of a control node, generally located at the roof. The target displacement is determined by multiply- AND CAPACITY SPECTRUM METHODS ing a set of coefficients times a function of the effective building period and the spectral acceleration. T2 =CoCiC 2C3Sa 4 2 g t 4, r To use the coefficient method, the nonlinear static analysis must be conducted in order to construct the pushover curve. The pushover curve can be presented as spectral acceleration versus spectral displacement or as base shear versus roof displacement. Once the pushover curve is constructed, an equivalent bilinear curve is fitted to approximate the actual curve. The equivalent bilinear curve is then used to obtain the effective stiffness of the building and the yield base shear needed for calculating the target displacement. Technical Resources Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application Beam Elements Representing Solid Wall Figure 7-11 Mathematical Model of Full Building beams are given a flexural rigidity of 0.5Ecg. The basement columns of the structure, which support the discontinuous walls, are given a flexural rigidity of 0.7Eclg. As recommended in FEMA 273, the shear rigidities of all components are set equal to gross section values. The post-event structure is modeled with stiffness values multiplied by the Ak factors recommended in FEMA 306. Heavily damaged coupling beams have their stiffness reduced to 20 percent (ok = 0.2) of the pre-event value. Moderately damaged coupling beams have their stiffness reduced to 50 percent (o'k = 0.5) of the pre- event value. For the solid shear walls, where damage is classified between Insignificant and None, stiffness is reduced to between 80 percent to 100 percent of the pre- event stiffness depending on the amount of cracking. The horizontal plateau of the component force/deformation curves is based on the strength of the governing behavior mode. For the pre-event structure, the strength Beam Elements Representing Floor Slab Nodes Where Lateral Loads are Applied is based on calculations as illustrated in Section 7.2.4 of this example. For the post-event structure, the pre-event strength is multiplied by the IQ factors recommended in FEMA 306. Heavily damaged coupling beams have their strength reduced to 30 percent of the pre-event value. Moderately damaged coupling beams have their strength reduced to 80 percent of the pre-event value. For components where damage is classified either Insignificant or None, the strength is not reduced. Figure 7-12 (b) shows the force-deformation curves for the moderately and heavily damaged coupling beams. 7.4.2.3 Foundation Rocking Since the governing behavior mode of the solid concrete walls is identified to be foundation rocking, this behavior is incorporated into the pushover analysis. To model the rocking, the stiffness of the lower story wall elements is reduced when the shear force in those elements reaches the shear force that causes rocking. Once the wall element in the model had started to overturn in the analysis, the stiffness is adjusted so that the wall FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application NONLINEAR ANALYSIS USING LINEAR ANALYSIS COMPUTER PROGRAMS Currently, there are few commercially available computer programs for direct implementation of the nonlinear analysis required for a pushover analysis. Many of the nonlinear pro- grams available are sophisticated but can be expensive and difficult to use. For many buildings, a linear elastic analysis program can be used to assess iteratively the nonlinear behavior of the building. There are two ways to implement a nonlinear static analysis using a linear computer program. Both methods are based on adjusting the stiffness of an element once the analysis indicates that the element has reached its yield level. One method uses the tangential stiffness of the element at the dis placement level above yield; the other uses a secant stiff- ness. The figures below depict the difference between the two methods. Model #4 Models Model #2, a) C. L o ILL fo el #1 / Sum of models gives final forces and displacements Displacement Figure i -Tangential Stiffness Method The tangential stiffness method is described in detail in ATC 40 (ATC, 1996). Lateral forces are applied to the building and proportionally increased until an element reaches its yield level. A new model is then created in which the yielding component has its stiffness reduced to zero or a small post-yield value. An incremental load is applied to the new would resist about 10 to 20 percent more shear force than that calculated to cause overturning. This adjustment is made to account for the additional dead weight of the structure that the wall would pick up once it started to uplift. The amount of additional overturning resistance in the wall is based on the shear and moment capacity of the beams framing into the wall. Model #3 M Model #2 Mo/e/ / Model #1 ILL Model #4 gives forces and displacements Displacement A Xs #lk-A i ls.-%-.M-Jlt4X 16t model until another component reaches its yield level. The process continues until a complete mechanism has formed or until the maximum displacement level of interest has been reached. The sum of forces and deformations of each of the incremental models then represent the global behavior of the structure. In the secant stiffness method, lateral forces are applied to the building and proportionally increased until a component reaches its yield level. A new model is then created in which the yielding element has its stiffness reduced by a value chosen to produce the correct post-yield force in the component. The new model is then rerun at the same force level, and components are checked to verify that the force in the component has not exceeded, or reduced significantly below, its yield level. If necessary, the stiffness of the yielding element may need to be adjusted so that the force in that element is approximately equal to the post-yield force level. Other elements need also be checked since they may be resisting additional load no longer resisted by the yielding element. After iterating until all elements are at approximately the correct force level, a new model is created at a larger lateral force level. The process is repeated at each force level. The behavior of the structure and each element at a given force level is represented directly by the behavior of the appropriate model, rather than combining the results of several models. 7.4.3 Force-Displacement Capacity (Pushover Analysis) Results 7.4.3.1 Pre-Event Structure The results of the pushover analysis indicate the progression of displacement events to be as follows for East-West loading (See Figure 7-2 for wall locations) : o Initially the two solid walls on lines 7 and 10 between lines C and D reach their rocking capacity.

The progression of damage shown in the analysis is consistent with the observed damage. 7.4.3.2 Post-Event Condition For the post-event structure, the progression of displacement events is modeling of essentially the same as that outlined condition, for the pre-event structure. The results Section 4.4.3.2 of the post-event pushover analysis of FEMA306 are shown in Figure 7-13. In this analysis, the first story coupling beams reach the immediate occupancy acceptability limit at a roof displacement of 0.47 inches; the beams reach the life safety limit at a roof displacement of 0.66 inches. These values are used for d'. 7.4.3.3 Comparison of Force-Displacement Capacity Curves (Pushover Curves) The performance of the post-event building was slightly different than the pre-event performance; the overall building is softer since more deflection is obtained for the same magnitude of applied load. The reduced stiffness of the damaged components causes the global reduction of stiffness of the post-event structure. The Moderate and Heavy damage to some of the components corresponds to a reduction in their strength. At 1.2 = co.0 I0.8 o 0.6 a XO.4 u. 0.2 (0 0.0 0 0.5 1 larger displacements (greater than about 1.5 inches) the response of the pre-event and post-event structures are essentially the same. 7.4.4 Estimation of Displacement, de, Caused by Damaging Earthquake The accuracy of the structural model of the building can be verified by estimating the maximum displacement, de, that was caused by the damaging event. This is done in two ways. If the data were available, actual ground motion records could be used to predict displacement analytically. Secondly, the pushover curve in conjunction with component capacity data could be used to estimate displacements from the observed damage. In this case, a spectrum from recorded ground motion at a site approximately 1.5 mi. from the building was available (see Figure 7-14). FEMA 273 (equation 3-11) uses the displacement coefficient method to estimate maximum displacement from spectral acceleration as follows: 2 de= CoCiC2C3Sa g (7-1) In this expression the coefficients C0 to C3 modify the basic relationship between spectral acceleration and 1.5 2 2.5 3 Period (Sec.) Figure7-14 Response Spectra from Damaging Earthquake FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application placement for an elastic system as a function of the effective period of the structure, The effective period for the pre-event structure is approximately 0.3 sec. The spectral acceleration for this period from Figure 7-14 would be approximately 0.5 to 0.6 g producing an elastic spectral displacement between 0.4 and 0.5 in. The coefficient C0 converts spectral displacement to roof displacement and has an approximate value of 1.25 for two- and three-story buildings. For short-period buildings, the maximum inelastic displacement often is greater than the elastic. FEMA 273 provides the following expression Cl to adjust conservatively from elastic to inelastic: 01.0+ (R -1.0) To Cl = R e where R = Sa 1 (7-2) W In these expressions, the effective base shear at yield as a portion of the building weight, or about 0.28 in this case. This would result in an R-factor of approximately 1.4 to 1.7. The point where the spectral acceleration transitions from the acceleration to velocity controlled zone occurs at a period of around 0.5 to 0.6 sec. These values would combine to result in a coefficient Cl of around 1.2 to 1.4. The coefficient C2 accounts for the shape of the hysteresis curve and is equal to 1.0 in this case. The coefficient C3 accounts for dynamic P-A effects and is also equal to 1.0 for this case. Combining all of the coefficients and the elastic spectral displacement results in an estimate for the maximum displacement at the roof, de, of between 0.6 to 0.9 in. From the damage observations, one of the first-floor coupling beams in the east-west direction appeared to reach its capacity, since a severe crack had developed and a transverse bar had buckled. Shear cracking had also developed in the wall piers adjacent to the coupling beams. From the pushover analysis, at displacement demands between 0.3 inches and 0.5 inches, the coupling beams reach their capacity. The pushover analysis also indicates that the first floor coupling beam would be the first to reach its capacity, which is verified by the observations. Since only the first floor beams were heavily damaged, the displacement demand of the damaging event should not have been much greater than 0.5 in. The difference between the analytical estimate of and the estimate from the model and observed damage is not large. The difference is acceptable because the building is farther away from the epicenter than the site where the motion was recorded, and actual recorded building response is usually less than that which is predicted analytically. Based on the comparison there is no need to adjust the structural model. 7.4.5 Displacement Demand 7.4.5.1 Estimate of Target Displacement Estimating the target displacement can be an interactive process. The nonlinear static analysis produces a force- displacement pushover curve covering the displacement range of interest. Based on the procedures of FEMA 273, an equivalent bilinear curve is fitted to the pushover curve and a yield point is estimated. Using this yield point and the associated effective period, the target displacement is calculated using the coefficient method. Given the calculated target displacement, the equivalent bilinear curve can be refitted, adjusting the yield point, and giving a new target displacement. The revised target displacement is close to the original estimate so further iteration is not needed. EXAMPLE CALCULATIONS FOR PRE-EVENT AND POST-EVENT DISPLACEMENT DEMANDS Section 5.4 of FEMA 306 describes the procedures for calculating the displacement demand for both the pre-event and the post-event structures. The pre-event and post-event pushover curves for this example are shown in Figure 7-13. For this example, the coefficient method is used to calculate the target displacements and FEMA 306 procedures are used to determine the corresponding displacement demands. Pre-Event Target Displacement, dd An idealized bi-linear capacity curve for the pre-event structure is developed to approximate the actual pushover curve. Based on this idealized curve, the yield level base shear V. is 6000 kips and the yield level displacement Dy is 0.31 inches. The effective stiffness Ke then becomes 19, 400 kips/inch.

The coefficients are: The damping coefficient 13 for the post-event structure is calculated = 1.25 for a 2-to-3-story building to be 0.06 based on Equation 5-3 of FEMA 306, due to the change in the post-event effective stiffness. The Cl = 1.58 using the equation for T, in the constant damping adjustments for the response spectrum (B, and BI), acceleration region of the spectrum interpolating from Table 2-15 in FEMA 273, are 1.06 and 1.04 respectively. This changes the spectral acceleration for C2 = 1.0 the post-event structure to 0.97. C3= 1.0 The value for Cl becomes 1.55, and the other coefficients Thus the target displacement from Equation 3-11 of FEMA are the same as for the pre-event condition.

The displacement demand for immediate occupancy after the 100-year earthquake is 0.97 inches. Calculations (see sidebar on previous page) indicate that displacement demand for the post-event structure is essentially the same as for the pre-event structure. 7.4.5.2 Effects of Damage on Performance The changes in displacement capacity and displacement demand caused by the effects of damage are summarized in Table 7-7. The Performance Indices, P and PF in Table 7-7 are the ratios of the displacement capacity, d, or dc', to displacement demand, dd or id, as defined in FEMA 308. The displacement capacities calculated in Section 7.4.3 are based on the assumption that the coupling beams are primary components. FEMA 273 allows coupling beams to be treated as secondary members. Since the global capacity is controlled by the acceptability of the coupling beams, the displacement capacities are determined again assuming that the coupling beams are secondary components and the results are included in Table 7-7. The global displacement capacity, although higher for Life Safety, is still controlled by the coupling beams. The relative change in Performance Index is similar in both cases, indicating that the effects of damage are the same. The Performance Indices for both the pre-event and post-event structures are less than one for both performance objectives, indicating that the objectives are not met. The effects of damage can be quantified by identifying restoration measures to return the Performance Index to its pre-event value, as outlined in the following sections. The actual course of action to accept, restore, or upgrade the damaged building is a separate consideration for the owner and the local building authority. 7.4.6 Analysis of Restored Structure 7.4.6.1 Proposed Performance Restoration Measures The primary difference between the pushover models of the pre-event building and the post-event building is the performance of the coupling beams. In their post-earth- quake condition, the coupling beams were considered to have less stiffness and strength than in their pre-event condition. The displacement limits were also reduced by the A'D factor of 0.7. This resulted in the overall reduced stiffness, strength, and displacement capacity of the structure. To restore the overall performance of the building, various schemes could be investigated, for example, the addition of new concrete walls without repairing damaged components. In this case however, the most straightforward repair appears to be the same component-by-component restoration considered in the direct method. This principally involves the repair of the damaged coupling beams. The coupling beams would be repaired as suggested by the Component Guides in FEMA 306 for the RC3H components. The moderately Table7-7 Performance Indices for Pre-event and Post-event Structures Displacement Capacity (inches) Displacement Demand (Inches) Life Immediate Safety Occupancy; dd =1.68 dd =0.97 dd'= 1.68d, '= 0.47 dd'= 0.97 0. s Gondar comj0 & d, = 0.65 dd =1.68 dd =0.97 d' = 0.47 dd' = 1.68 dd' = 0.97 Performance Index (Capacity/Demand) Life Immediate Safety Occupancy P =0.52 P =0.67 P'= 0.39 P'= 0.48 P =0.60 P =0.67 P' = 0.45 P' = 0.48 Life Safety b g.. treated Coupling beams treated Pre-event d, =0.88 Post-event dj= 0.66 Coupling be ins treated Pre-event d, =1.00 Post-event d' = 0.76 Immediate Occupancy 0 S primary, = 0.65 FEMA 307 Technical Resources Technical Resources FEMA 307 Chapter 7: Example Application damaged coupling beams are repaired by injecting the cracks with epoxy. The heavily damaged coupling beams are repaired by removing the damaged coupling beams and replacing them with new coupling beams. Each new coupling beam will be designed using the provisions of the current building code, which requires diagonal reinforcing bars be installed as the primary shear resistance. A detail of the potential repair is shown in Figure 7-8. 7.4.6.2 Analysis Results The moderately damaged coupling beams are "repaired" in the model by revising their stiffness and strength based on the Component Damage Classification Guides. The heavily damaged coupling beams that were replaced are given stiffness values for initial, undamaged elements and displacement capacities as in FEMA 273 for flexure-governed beams with diagonal reinforcement, as shown in Figure 7-12 (c). The stiffness of the moderately damaged coupling beams is restored to 80 percent of the pre-event stiffness. The strength and displacement limits are restored to the pre-event values.

The pushover analysis is then conducted using the same procedures and load patterns. The progression of displacement events for the repaired structure is similar to that for the pre-event structure except that the replaced coupling beam does not reach its collapse prevention displacement limit. Figure 7-15 shows the pushover curve for the repaired structure. Also shown on this curve is the pre-event pushover curve. The overall behavior of the repaired structure closely matches that of the pre-earthquake structure, as it was designed to do. The ratio of displacement capacity to demand, d2 I dd, is 0.53 for the life safety performance level and 0.66 for immediate occupancy, which are the same as those for the pre-event performance. The displacement capacity for the repaired structure is governed by the component deformation limits of the coupling beams that were not replaced. Note that an effective upgrade measure might be to replace all coupling beams, as this would greatly increase global displacement capacity. 1 1.5 2 Roof Displacement (Inches) Figure 7-15 Comparison of Pre-event and Repaired Pushover Curves FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application 7.4.7 Performance Restoration 7.5 Discussion of Results Measures 7.5.1 Discussion of Building 7.4.7.1 Structural Restoration Measures Performance Based on the relative performance analysis, replacing the three heavily Hypothetical repairs for damaged coupling beams and injecting relative the cracks in the moderately dam-performance aged coupling beams restores the method, Section 4.5 of performance of the structure. The volume of reinforced concrete coupling FEMA 306 beams to be removed is estimated to be about 41 cubic feet per coupling beam. The length of shear cracks to be injected in the moderately damaged coupling beams is estimated to be 100 feet. 7.4.7.2 Nonstructural Restoration Measures The Component Guides for the type RC1B components indicate that if cracks are less than 1/8 inch, the damage can be classified as Insignificant, and therefore structural repairs are not necessary. Two of the wall components had cracks that exceeded 1/16 inch. These wall components will have all of the cracks exceeding 1/16 inch repaired by injection with epoxy. The total length of these cracks is estimated to be about 22 feet. The wall components with visible cracks will be repaired by patching the cracks with plaster and painting the entire wall. This repair is only intended to restore the visual appearance of the wall. Restoration of other nonstructural characteristics, such as water tightness and fire protection, is not necessary. 7.4.7.3 Summary of Restoration Measures and Costs Table 7-8 summarizes the repairs and estimated costs. Additional costs related to inspection, evaluation, management, and indirect costs may also be involved. The example building contains some typical features found in older concrete wall buildings, such as lightly reinforced concrete elements and discontinuous wall elements. Although the building was designed adequately according to the building code at the time, the design would not be appropriate by current building codes. Because of the improvement in seismic design provisions over the years, it is expected that the building, in its pre-event condition, would not meet the life safety performance level of FEMA 273. The weak link in the building, as determined by analysis and confirmed with the field observations, is the shear capacity of the coupling beams. Although the analysis indicates that foundation rocking of the solid walls is probably the initial nonlinearity in the building, the rocking of the walls is not detrimental to the global behavior under the anticipated seismic demands. In the section of the building in which the coupling beams were damaged, the coupled shear walls are discontinuous and are supported by columns at the ends of the walls. Normally, columns supporting discontinuous walls are susceptible to high compressive stresses, and consequently reduced ductility capacity, as the wall overturns. During the pushover analysis, the forces in the columns supporting the coupled walls remained within their capacity. The reason the columns were not overstressed is that the coupling beams acted as fuses for the coupled wall element. The overturning force in the columns could not be greater than the shear capacity of the coupling beams. If the strength of the replaced coupling beams is too large, the overturning force generated could cause failure of the columns below the Table7-8 Restoration Cost Estimate by the Relative Performance Method Item Unit Cost (1997 Dollars) Epoxy Injection $25.00 /lin ft Coupling Beam Removal and Replacement $74.00 / cu ft Patch and paint walls $0.60 /sq ft Replace ceiling tiles $2.00 /sq ft General Conditions, Fees, Overhead & Profit (@ 30%) Total Quantity 122 ft 122 ft3 10, 175 ft2 15, 000 ft2 Cost (1997 Dollars) $3, 050. $9, 028. $6, 105. $ 30, 000. $ 14, 455. $ 62, 638. FEMA 307 Technical Resources FEMA 307 Technical Resources Chapter 7: Example Application wall, resulting in a partial collapse of the building. For this reason, the capacity of the repaired coupling beam was designed to be similar to that of the previous coupling beam. One of the advantages of the relative performance analysis is the ability to assess the behavior of structure and the influence of the behavior of the individual components on the overall behavior. Strengthening a single component may not produce a significant improvement in the overall performance if the progression of failure shifts to a less desirable mode. The pushover analysis of the repaired structure needs to consider the change in overall behavior caused by the repairs. Because of the improved performance of the first story coupling beams that were replaced, these beams no longer control the global displacement limit of the structure. The force/displacement capacity of the second story coupling beams in their repaired condition is the same as in the pre-event condition. The displacement demand at which the second story coupling beams reach their acceptability limit is very close to the limit at which the first story coupling beams in the pre-event condition reached their limit. Therefore, the overall performance of the building is not improved substantially. The information gained from these analyses can be used to assess whether an upgrade of the building to improve its performance may be cost effective. 7.5.2 Discussion of Methodology and Repair Costs This example has illustrated some of the important aspects in the FEMA 306 approach to assessing the earthquake damage to concrete and masonry wall buildings. The example building represents an actual building that experienced a damaging earthquake. FEMA 306 presents two methods for calculating the loss associated with earthquake damage, the direct method and the relative performance method. These methods are used to determine the loss, which is measured as the cost associated with returning the building to its pre-event performance. In this example, the cost of restoring the performance using the two methods produce the same result, principally because the repairs chosen in the relative performance method match those suggested by the direct method. In other buildings, there can be differences between the results obtained by the two methods. The Nonlinear Static Procedure described in FEMA 273 is used in the relative performance method to assess the performance of the building in the pre-event, post-event and repaired conditions. This analysis method is relatively new and is still subject to further refinements. This procedure can be time-consuming to implement properly. As the method and the analytical tools become further developed, this method should be easier to implement. 7.6 References ACI Committee 201, 1994, "Guide for Making a Condition Survey of Concrete in Service," Manual of Concrete Practice, American Concrete Institute, Detroit, Michigan.
