Development of a Generalized Cross-Building Structural Response Reconstruction Model Using Strong Motion Data
Publication: Journal of Structural Engineering
Volume 148, Issue 6
Abstract
Models for reconstructing seismic response demands across multiple buildings can aid in cluster-level rapid postearthquake damage assessment. Response demands from 188 buildings affected by 25 earthquakes were used to develop a cross-building response reconstruction model. A structural response prediction model (SRPM) was developed, which is based on a modern ground motion model with added “building response” terms. A kriging algorithm is used to interpolate the within-event residuals which, together with the SRPM, form a generalized cross-building response reconstruction (CBRR) model. Given the recorded responses for a subset of instrumented buildings in a cluster, the demands in the uninstrumented buildings can be reconstructed by combining the median values generated from the SRPM and estimated within-event residuals for a given site obtained from the kriging model.
