Abstract

Current building codes necessitate the inclusion of two ground motion acceleration components in the dynamic analysis of structures. However, researches indicate that the orientation of the chosen ground motion data can significantly impact the structural response. This study investigates the influence of the incident angle on a 10-story reinforced concrete building, considering different earthquake selection criteria. Specifically, it is aimed to identify the direction of the seismic data that yields the largest peak ground acceleration by applying rotations with specific angles. Subsequently, the dynamic analysis is performed using both the original and the rotated records that produce the highest acceleration. To ensure a comprehensive evaluation, the earthquake data is classified based on soil types, fault mechanisms, and Aria’s intensity. The results of the dynamic analyses for both the original and oriented data sets are compared, focusing on parameters such as roof displacement, base shear, acceleration and displacement time histories, and acceleration and displacement spectra. Our findings reveal that the base shear and roof displacement obtained from the rotated earthquake data generally exceed those obtained from the original data. This underscores the importance of considering the influence of ground motion direction in structural analysis and design.

Abstract

Mevcut bina mevzuatı, yapıların dinamik analizine iki yer hareketi ivme bileşeninin dahil edilmesini gerektirmektedir. Ancak araştırmalar, seçilen yer hareketi verilerinin yönünün yapısal davranışı önemli ölçüde etkileyebileceğini göstermektedir. Bu çalışma, sismik yer hareketinin yönlendirme açısının 10 katlı betonarme bir bina üzerindeki etkisini farklı deprem seçim kriterlerini dikkate alarak araştırmaktadır. Spesifik olarak, belirli açılarla rotasyonlar uygulayarak en büyük yer ivmesini sağlayan sismik verilerin yönünü belirleme hedeflendi. Daha sonra, hem orijinal deprem kayıtlarını hem de en yüksek ivmenin elde edildiği döndürülmüş deprem kayıtları kullanılarak dinamik analizler gerçekleştirildi. Kapsamlı bir değerlendirme yapmak için deprem verileri zemin sınıflarına, fay mekanizmalarına ve Arias şiddetine göre sınıflandırdı. Dinamik analizden elde edilen sonuçlar; çatı deplasmanı, taban kayması, ivme-yer değiştirme verileri ve ivme-yer değiştirme spektrumları göz önünde bulundurularak her iki durumdaki deprem kayıtları için karşılaştırma yapıldı. Bulgularımız, döndürülmüş deprem verilerinden elde edilen taban kesme ve çatı deplasmanlarının genellikle orijinal verilerden elde edilen değerleri aştığını ortaya koymaktadır. Bu, yapısal analiz ve tasarımda yer hareketi yönünün etkisinin dikkate alınmasının önemini vurgulamaktadır.
