Abstract

In this study, various alternative vector-valued ground motion intensity measures (IMs) are used to estimate maximum inter-story drifts and hysteretic energy demands of steel framed buildings under long duration narrow-band ground motions. The vectors are based on the spectral acceleration at first mode of the structure as first parameterSa (T1). As the second parameter of the vector,IMsrelated to peak, integral and spectral shape parameters are selected. It is concluded that spectral-shape-based vector-valuedIMshave the best relation with maximum inter-story drift and energy demands in steel frames subjected to narrow-band earthquake ground motions.
