Torsion in buildings the Mexican research experience after the 1985 earthquake Gustavo Ayala
TORSION Causes No coincidence of acting and resisting forces in structures with asymmetric plan distibutions of masses, stiffnesses and/or strengths. Kinematic effects Coupling between lateral and rotational displacements of the levels. Consequences Non-contemplated damage in asymmetric structures subjected intense earthquakes.
DAMAGE STATISTICS 19th SEPTEMBER 1985, MEXICO EARTHQUAKE
Torsion Design DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TORSION Elastic models of single storey shear buildings. DESIGN PHYLOSOPHY It is formally accepted that under intense seismic events structural damage (non-linear behaviour) may occur.
SPATIAL VARIATION OF THE TORSION CENTRE IN MULTI-STOREY BUILDINGS WITH IN-PLAN AND ELEVATION ASYMMETRY ( SHEAR AND BENDING MODELS)
CENTRE OF TORSION “ The Centre of Torsion of a buuilding is defined as the loci on its levels or inter-storeys at which the seismic force or shear must be applied to produce only translations with no rotations “ PARAMETERS WHICH DEFINE THE LOCATION OF THE CENTRE OF TORSION. • Stiffness • Location of the elements • Distribution of lateral loads “ The CENTRE OF TORSION is not an INVARIANT“
LOCATION OF THE CENTRE OF TORSION SHEAR MODELS • EXACT . • Infinite stiffnesses of beams • Plane frames • TRADITIONAL. • Bending on beams • Inter-storey stiffnesses of plane frames THREE DIMENSIONAL MATRIX FORMULATION
