EXAMPLE 6. BUILDING VALUATION & REDESIGN STUDY

EXAMPLE 6: "STUDY FOR THE VALUATION AND REDESIGN OF A BUILDING ACCORDING TO THE CANC. 60 deformations. In the latter case, the acceptance criteria are expressed as percentages of exhaustion of the available plastic displacement or deformation, depending on the desired level of performance of the structure. After calculating the M-N interaction diagrams the model is now ready for the pushover analysis. First, returning to the Section: " Analysis ", you create an inelastic analysis scenario. ▪ For Greece, you select EC-8 Greek/Anelastica and for Cyprus, Italy and Austria, for which the Eurocode appendices have been integrated. (For all other European countries, select EC-8 General and manually enter the parameters of the respective attachments) ▪ Especially for static inelastic analysis scenario, whether it is Eurocode 8 or CEE (EC-8_Greek / Inelastic), the multipliers of inertial quantities to be defined here will be taken into account in the first Pushover analysis concerning the permanent and mobile loads with default values those provided by EC8. ▪ Then, in the parameters of the inelastic analysis, you can specify whether these values will be kept the same as in the first step in all the steps of the process or whether they will be reduced at each step, starting of course from the whole initial values. Impairment may be applied either at the beginning of each step or after the plastic joint has been created. 3(a).2 Creating an Elastic Analysis Scenario Within the list of scenarios, in addition to the two default scenarios, the inelastic scenario has now been created.
