Abstract In this paper, an evaluation was tried for the impact of structural design on structural response. Several situations are foreseen as the possibilities of changing the distribution of the structural elements (sails, columns, etc.), the width of the structure and the number of floors indicates the adapted type of bracing for a given structure by referring only to its Geometric dimensions. This was done by studying the effect of the technical design of the building on the natural frequency of the structure with the study of the influence of the distribution of the structural elements on the seismic response of the building, taking into account of the requirements of the Moroccan earthquake regulations 2000/2011 and using the ANSYS APDL and Robot Structural Analysis software.

AbstractIn this study, the lateral resistances of mass timber shear walls were investigated for seismic design. The lateral resistances were predicted by kinematic models with mechanical properties of connectors, and compared with experimental data. Four out of 7 shear wall specimens consisted of a single Ply-lam panel and withdrawal-type connectors. Three out of 7 shear wall specimens consisted of two panels made by dividing a single panel in half. The divided panels were connected by 2 or 4 connectors like a single panel before being divided. The applied vertical load was 0, 24, or 120 kN, and the number of connectors for connecting the Ply-lam wall-to-floor was 2 or 4. As a result, the tested data were 6.3 to 52.7% higher than the predicted value by kinematic models, and it means that the lateral resistance can be designed by the behavior of the connector, and the prediction will be safe. The effects of wall-to-wall connectors, wall-to-floor connectors and vertical loads on the shear wall were analyzed with the experimental data.

The roof framing in single-storey buildings with large foot prints, generally used for commercial, educational, or institutional purposes, often consists of a flexible steel deck or wood panel diaphragm. Resistance to seismic lateral loads is provided by steel bracings, masonry shear walls, concrete shear walls, wood panel shear walls, or cold formed wall systems. The response of such buildings to seismic loads is strongly affected by the flexibility of the roof diaphragm. Diaphragm flexibility alters the manner in which the inertia forces, shears, and bending moments are distributed along the length of the diaphragm. In addition, it causes a significant increase in the ductility demand on the lateral load resisting system that is expected to be strained into the inelastic range under the design earthquake. Results of a study on the linear and nonlinear seismic response of buildings with flexible diaphragms are presented.
