In this paper, a simplified method is proposed to estimate the peak inter-story drift ratios of steel frames with hysteretic dampers. The simplified method involved the following: (1) the inelastic spectral displacement is estimated using a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system with multi-springs, which is equivalent to a steel frame with dampers and in which multi-springs represent the hysteretic behavior of dampers; (2) the first inelastic mode vector is estimated using a pattern of story drifts obtained from nonlinear static pushover analysis; and (3) the effects of modes higher than the first mode are estimated by using the jth modal period, jth mode vector, and jth modal damping ratio obtained from eigenvalue analysis. The accuracy of the simplified method is estimated using the results of nonlinear time history analysis (NTHA) on a series of three-story, six-story, and twelve-story steel moment resisting frames with steel hysteretic dampers. Based on the results of a comparison of the peak inter-story drift ratios estimated by the simplified method and that computed via NTHA using an elaborate analytical model, the accuracy of the simplified method is sufficient for evaluating seismic demands. |
