    Introduction

    composite slabs with profiled steel sheetings are adopted toresist the vertical loads and to behave as horizontal rigid

    diaphragms.

    The connection between slab and beams is provided by

    ductile headed shear studs that are welded directly through

    the metal deck to the beam flange.

    Introduction

    Apart from the seismic recommendations, the structural safetyverifications are carried out according to the following

    European codes:

    - EN 1990 (2001) Eurocode 0: Basis of structural design;

    - EN 1991-1-1 (2002) Eurocode 1: Actions on structures - Part

    1-1: General actions -Densities, self-weight, imposed loads for

    buildings;

    - EN 1993-1-1 (2003) Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures -

    Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings;

    - EN 1994-1-1 (2004) Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel

    and concrete structures - Part 1.1: General rules and rules forbuildings.

    In EU specific National annex should be accounted for design.

    For generality sake, the calculation examples are carried out

    using the recommended values of the safety factors7

    Introduction

    It is well known that the standard nominal yield stress fy is theminimum guaranteed value, which is generally larger than the actual

    steel strength.

    Owing to capacity design criteria, it is important to know the maximum

    yield stress of the dissipative parts.

    This implies practical problems because steel products are not usually

    provided for an upper bound yield stress.

    Eurocode 8 faces this problem considering 3 different options:

    a) the actual maximum yield strength fy,maxof the steel of dissipative

    zones satisfies the following expression

    fy,max1.1ovfy

    where fyis the nominal yield strength specified for the steel grade and

    gov is a coefficient based on a statistic characterization of steel

    products.

    The Recommended value is 1.25 (EN1998-1 6.2.3(a)), but the

    designer may use the value provided by the relevant National Annex.8

    Introduction

    b) this clause refers to a situation in which steel producers provide a

    seismic-qualifiedsteel grade with both lower and upper bound value

    of yield stress defined.

    So if all dissipative parts are made considering one seismic steel

    grade and the non-dissipative are made of a higher grade of steel

    there is no need for govwhich can be set equal to 1.

    c) the actual yield strength fy,actof the steel of each dissipative zone is

    determined from measurements and the overstrength factor is

    computed for each dissipative zone as gov,act= fy,act / fy , fybeing the

    nominal yield strength of the steel of dissipative zones.

    Introduction

    In general at design stage the actual yield stress of the material is not

    known a-priori. So the case a) is the more general.

    Hence, in this exercise we use it.

    Introduction

    Combination of actionsIn case of buildings the seismic action should be combined with

    permanent and variable loads as follows:

    where Gk,i is the characteristic value of permanent action I(the self

    weight and all other dead loads), AEd is the design seismic action(corresponding to the reference return period multiplied by the

    importance factor), Qk,iis the characteristic value of variable action I

    and 2,i is the combination coefficient for the quasi-permanent value

    of the variable action I,which is a function of the destination of use

    of the building

    Introduction

    MassesIn accordance with EN 1998-1 3.2.4 (2)P, the inertial effects in the

    seismic design situation have to be evaluated by taking into account

    the presence of the masses corresponding to the following

    combination of permanent and variable gravity loads:

    where is the combination coefficient for variable action i,which takes into account the likelihood of the loads Qk,i to be not

    present over the entire structure during the earthquake, as well as a

    reduced participation in the motion of the structure due to a non-rigid

    connection with the structure.

    General requirements for CBFs

    Basic principles of conceptual design- structural simplicity: it consists in realizing clear and direct paths for

    the transmission of the seismic forces

    - uniformity: uniformity is characterized by an even distribution of the

    structural elements both in-plan and along the height of the building.

    - symmetry : a symmetrical layout of structural elements is envisaged

    - redundancy: redundancy allow redistributing action effects and

    widespread energy dissipation across the entire structure

    - bi-directional resistance and stiffness: the building structure must be

    able to resist horizontal actions in any direction

    - torsional resistance and stiffness: building structures should possess

    adequate torsional resistance and stiffness to limit torsional motions- diaphragmatic behaviour at storey level: the floors (including the roof)

    should act as horizontal diaphragms, thus transmitting the inertia forces

    to the vertical structural systems

    - adequate foundation: the foundations have a key role, because they

    have to ensure a uniform seismic excitation on the whole building.

    General requirements for CBFs

    CBFs are mainly located along the perimeter of the building.There is the same number of CBF spans in the 2 main direction of the

    plan.

    Hence, the building is regular in-plan because it complies with thefollowing requirements (EN 1998-1 4.2.3.2):

    - The building structure is symmetrical in plan with respect to two

    orthogonal axes in terms of both lateral stiffness and mass distribution.

    - The plan configuration is compact; in fact, each floor may be delimited

    by a polygonal convex line. Moreover, in plan set-backs or re-entrant

    corners or edge recesses do not exist.18

    General requirements for CBFs

    - The structure has rigid in plan diaphragms.

    - The in-plan slenderness ratio Lmax/Lminof the building is lower

    than 4 (31000 mm / 24000 mm = 1.29), where Lmaxand Lminare

    the larger and smaller in plan dimensions of the building,

    measured in two orthogonal directions.

    - At each level and for both X and Y directions, the structural

    eccentricity eo (which is the nominal distance between the

    centre of stiffness and the centre of mass) is practically

    negligible and the torsional radius r is larger than the radius of

    gyration of the floor mass in plan

    General requirements for CBFs

    Regularity in elevation

    - All seismic resisting systems are distributed along the building

    height without interruption from the base to the top of the

    building.

    - Both lateral stiffness and mass at every storey practically

    remain constant and/or reduce gradually, without abrupt

    changes, from the base to the top of the building.

    - The ratio of the actual storey resistance to the resistance

    required by the analysis does not vary disproportionately

    between adjacent storeys.

    General requirements for CBFs

    According to EN 1998-1 4.3.4, If the analysis for the design seismicaction is linear-elastic based on the design response spectrum (i.e.

    the elastic spectrum with 5% damping divided by the behaviour

    factor q), then the values of the displacements ds are those from

    that analysis multiplied by the behaviour factor q, as expressed by

    means of the following simplified expression:

    ds= qdde

    where:

    ds is the displacement of the structural system induced by the

    design seismic action;

    qdis the displacement behaviour factor, assumed equal to q;

    deis the displacement of the structural system, as determined by a

    linear elastic analysis under the design seismic forces.

    Structural analysis and calculation models

    In this Tutorial two separate calculation 2D planar models in thetwo main plan directions have been used, one in X direction and

    the other in Y direction. This approach is allowed by the EC8 (at

    clause 4.3.1(5)), since the examined building satisfies the

    conditions given by EN 1998-1 4.2.3.2 and 4.3.3.1(8)

    Modelling assumptions:

    for the gravity load designed parts of the frame (beamto-

    columns connections, column bases) have been assumed as

    perfectly pinned, but columns are considered continuous

    through each floor beam.Masses are considered as lumped into a selected master-joint

    at each floor, because the floor diaphragms may be taken as

    rigid in their planes

    The models of X-CBFs and inverted V-CBFs need different

    assumption for the braced part.23

    Structural analysis and calculation models

    In 3D model, in order to account for accidental torsional effects the

    seismic effects on the generic lateral load-resisting system are

    multiplied by a factor

    where:

    xis the distance from the centre of gravity of the building, measured

    perpendicularly to the direction of the seismic action considered;

    Structural analysis and calculation models

    An important aspect to be taken into account is the influence of second

    order (P-) effects on frame stability. Indeed, in case of large lateral

    deformation the vertical gravity loads can act on the deformed

    configuration of the structure so that to increase the level the overall

    deformation and force distribution in the structure thus leading to

    potential collapse in a sidesway mode under seismic condition

    According to EN 1998-1, 4.4.2.2(2) second-order (P-) effects are

    specified through a storey stability coefficient () given as:

    where: Ptotis the total vertical load, including the load tributary to gravity

    framing, at and above the storey considered in the seismic design

    situation;

    Vtotis seismic shear at the storey under consideration;

    his the storey height;

    dris the design inter-storey drift, given by the product of elastic inter-

    storey drift from analysis and the behaviour factor q(i.e. de q).

    Frame instability is assumed for 0.3. If 0.1, second-order effects

    could be neglected, whilst for 0.1 < 0.2, P-effects may be

    approximately taken into account in seismic action effects through the

    following multiplier:

    Differently from MRFs, for CBFs it is common that the storey stability

    coefficient is < 0.1, owing to the large lateral stiffness of this type of

    structural scheme.

    Hence, CBFs are generally insensitive to P-Delta effects

    X-CBFsAccording to EN 1998-1 6.7.2(2)P, in case of X-CBFs the structuralmodel shall include the tension braces only, unless a non-linear

    analysis is carried out. Then, the generic braced bay is ideally

    composed by a single brace (i.e. the diagonal in tension).

    Generally speaking, in order to make tension alternatively developing in

    all the braces at any storey, two models must be developed, one withthe braces tilted in one direction and another with the braces tilted in

    the opposite direction

    X-CBFsthe restraint effect of the diagonal in tension has been taken into

    account in the calculation of the geometrical slenderness of X-

    diagonal braces. This effect halves the brace in-plane buckling

    length, while it is taken as inefficient for out-of-plane buckling

    The effects of actions included in the seismic design situation

    have been determined by means of a linear-elastic modal

    response spectrum analysis.

    The first two modes have been considered because they satisfy

    the following criterion:

    thesum of the effective modal masses for the modes taken intoaccount amounts to at least 90% of the total mass of the

    structure.

    Since the first two vibration modes in both X and Y direction

    may be considered as independent (being T2 0.9T1, EN 1998-1, 4.3.3.3.2) the SRSS (Square Root of the Sum of the Squares)

    Connections

    Connections have to satisfy the requirements given in EN 1998-1 6.5.5.

    In particular, the following connection overstrength criterion must be

    applied:

    Rd

    1.1 ov

    Rfy

    where Rdis the resistance of the connection, Rfyis the plastic

    resistance of the connected dissipative member based on the design

    yield stress of the material, ovis the material overstrength factor.

    In addition, Eurocode 8 introduces an additional capacity designcriterion for bolted shear connections. Indeed, the design shear

    resistance of the bolts should be at least 1.2 times higher than the

    design bearing resistance.
