The Behavior of the Steel Structures To Earthquakes - Experience Feedback


Abstract eng:
Using the reports of the post-seismic missions realized by AFPS for thirty years (for 1985 – Mexico) and articles and other publications concerning earthquakes that have not been the subject of site visits, an assessment on the behavior of steel structures to earthquakes is proposed. The analysis takes into account reports and other written documents and pictures taken on-site. The experience feedback (of 28 major earthquakes recorded worldwide) shows a globally satisfactory behavior of this kind of structures in earthquakes. It is also an opportunity to review the structures with dissipative behavior that have been used now for about twenty years and for which the data of real performance is available. The characteristic damage identified during post-seismic mission is presented by type of steel structure.
