Influence of ground motion duration on structural collapse risk

About this item

Title

Influence of ground motion duration on structural collapse risk

Content partner

University of Canterbury Library

Collection

UC Research Repository

Description

- Previous research has concluded that ground motion duration influences only cumulative damage metrics, not peak structural deformations - Current structural design and assessment practice requires explicit consideration of only the response spectra of the ground motions anticipated at a site, not their durations - Recent studies by the authors using spectrally equivalent long and short duration ground motions have demonstrated that duration does influence structural collapse capacity
