Abstract

AbstractDynamic analyses were carried out to study the seismic response of high‐rise steel moment‐resisting frames in 16‐storey buildings. The frames are intentionally designed using three different design procedures: strength‐controlled design, strong column–weak beam controlled design, and drift‐controlled design. The seismic performances of the so‐designed frames with vertical mass irregularities were discussed in view of drift ratio, plastic hinge rotation, hysteretic energy input and stress demand. A demand curve of hysteretic energy inputs was also presented with two earthquake levels in peak ground accelerations for a future design application. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
