Condition assessment for seismic evaluation
Eleventh World Conference on Earthquake Engineering [Proceedings] [computer file]
01 Jan 1996
Abstract
An integrated methodology based on nondestructive dynamic field testing and system identification studies is suggested for reliable seismic condition assessment of actual constructed facilities. The seismic vulnerability is evaluated by field-calibrated comprehensive three-dimensional finite element models developed by structural identification. Experimentally measured and analytically simulated modal flexibilities are correlated. These studies revealed our capabilities for evaluating seismic vulnerability or reliability of different types of structures. These efforts helped to identify and conceptualize a number of unresolved important issues that influence maintenance management and rehabilitation design in seismic regions.
