Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT: The force-based seismic design procedure currently used assumes that the stiffness of the lateral force resisting elements is essentially independent of their strength. As a result, the period of the structure will remain the same as originally perceived, irrespective of how much the seismic base shear is reduced from the elastic strength. Current studies show that for a large class of reinforced concrete members such as piers, flexural walls and ductile moment resisting frames, their strength and stiffness are coupled. This leads to inconsistency between the assumed stiffness and the actual stiffness of the structure as designed. Using a wall structure as an example, this study examines the consequence of such inconsistency as it affects the estimation of ductility demand and seismic displacement of the structure, and points out the implication of continual use of the current force-based procedure. It is shown that the displace-ment-based procedure is a more simple approach to determine the seismic design strength of structures with stiffness-strength coupled elements.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
