Perencanaan Ulang Bangunan Gedung Dormitory Kawasan Sains dan Teknologi (KST) Nuklir Yogyakarta Berbasis Building Information Modelling (BIM) 5D

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a method of processing data during the life cycle of a construction project that uses three-dimensional, real-time, and dynamic building modeling software, thereby creating a complete model related to project data from the planning to the construction phase of the project. In the re-planning of the Yogyakarta Nuclear Science and Technology (KST) Dormitory Building based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) 5D, a special moment resisting frame system (SRPMK) structure was used. The planned building consists of 7 floors, including the lower structure consisting of a 50x50 square pile foundation and five types of pile cap, the upper structure consisting of columns, beams, and floor plates. The quality of concrete in the structure used is fc' 40 Mpa and 35 Mpa with reinforcing steel quality fy 420B. In this planning, 2D and 3D modeling was carried out. Structural analysis was carried out using the SAP2000 application, which was then continued with 2D 3D modeling and Quantity take-off results using Revit and Scheduling using Ms. Projects. The Draft Budget (RAB) results for this planning are Rp. 37,691,368,000.00. The planned duration of work is 26 weeks. The results of the scheduling and RAB are then integrated using the Naviswork software so that the simulation results of the work to be planned can be seen.

Structural Design of a 10-Story Office Building using the Special Moment Frame System (SMFS) in Padang, West Sumatra

Indonesia is located at the convergence of the Eurasian, Pacific, and Indo-Australian tectonic plates, making it prone to significant earthquakes, such as the Aceh earthquake and tsunami in 2004 with a magnitude of 9.1, and the Padang earthquake in 2009 with a magnitude of 7.6, both known for their severe impacts. According to the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), there were 10,843 earthquakes in 2022. Given this high level of risk, all buildings, especially offices, must be designed to be earthquake-resistant due to high activity and user numbers. The city of Padang is categorized in Seismic Design Category D, indicating a high level of earthquake risk. The construction of a ten-story reinforced concrete building for office use is planned, referring to SNI 1726-2019 on earthquake resistance and SNI 1727-2020 on minimum loads, along with the Special Moment Resisting Frame System (SMRF). Structural analysis and modeling are conducted using ETABS software, with element dimensions based on the initial design. This analysis aims to ensure the building meets earthquake resistance requirements through response spectrum evaluation, including natural periods, inter-story drift, P-Delta effects, and checks for irregularities. Based on internal forces from ETABS V.18, reinforcement designs are prepared for structural elements such as columns, beams, slabs, and shear walls. A design capacity evaluation ensures the safety and optimal performance of the structure during an earthquake.

The conclusion in this final project research is based on the results of the analysis that the design of the Attybian Islamic boarding school building still meets the requirements based on SNI 1726-2019 concerning procedures for earthquake resistance planning for buildings and non-buildings and also for beam, column and plate elements have met the requirements based on SNI 2847-2019 concerning reinforced concrete structures. However, for the beam elements for the reinforcement requirements, it is still too wasteful so that in this analysis, the amount of reinforcement is reduced because in the planning principle it must be safe and economical.

Investigation of seismic resistant structures with various moment-resisting frame systems and pushover analysis

Earthquakes are a serious threat in the construction of multi-storey buildings in Indonesia, which are divided into several seismic design categories. The design of seismic-resistant buildings requires the management of plastic hinges to reduce seismic loads. The aspects of seismic-resistant structural design in Indonesia are regulated by SNI 1726:2019, SNI 1727:2020, and SNI 2847:2019. Intermediate Moment Resisting Frame System (IMRFS) and Special Moment Resisting Frame System (SMRFS) are used based on seismic category and earthquake intensity. Pushover analysis is used to analyze the structures behavior when exposed to seismic loads. This research designs seismic resistant structures with IMRFS and SMRFS at different locations with the aim of assessing structural performance and gaining reinforcement to the concrete ratio, which is relevant for the design and construction of multi-storey buildings in Indonesia. The results of this research are the structural performance levels, reinforcement volume, concrete volume, and the reinforcement to concrete volume ratio. Both IMRFS and SMRFS reached Immediate Occupancy to Life Safe performance levels after the earthquake because their monitored displacement was not significantly different. The structural failure modes of both systems meet the Strong Column–Weak Beam requirements. The distribution of plastic hinges also remains in the Immediate Occupancy category.

Seismic Performance Assessment of Conventional Construction and Ductile Concrete Moment Frames Using Performance-Based Unified Procedure

A Performance-Based Unified (PBU) procedure has recently been proposed by the National Research Council Canada (NRC) to systematically evaluate seismic design requirements available in the National Building Codes (NBC) of Canada. Conventional Construction reinforced Concrete Moment-resisting Frame (CC-CMF) and Ductile reinforced Concrete Moment-Resisting Frame (D-CMF) systems were used in this paper to first assess the proposed PBU procedure and second determine the adequacy of the basis for seismic design requirements in NBC and see its performance margin against different structural performance levels. Results indicate that the detailed screening in the PBU procedure efficiently reduces the number of Incremental Dynamic Analyses (IDA) by more than 60% for CC-CMF while providing remarkable accuracy. It was also found that the CC-CMF system designed for the Normal importance category can provide an adequate margin against Life Safety (LS) performance level objectives, while the D-CMF system designed for the same importance category passes the Collapse Prevention (CP) performance level criteria.

Comparison of Seismic and Wind Actions on Medium to High-Rise Buildings in Muscat, Oman

This study is a comparison of wind and seismic loads on medium and high-rise buildings in Muscat, Oman. It uses the proposed Omani Seismic Code and Eurocode EN1991 for seismic and wind calculations, respectively. Muscat falls under Zone-1 in the Omani seismic code and experience basic wind speed of 30 m/sec. The research investigates buildings with varying aspect ratios (1:1 and 1:2), heights (11, 15, and 19 stories), and structural layouts (frame only, core shear wall, and corner shear wall), using ETABS for structural analysis. The findings reveal that seismic actions are generally more significant than wind actions for buildings in Muscat. In frame-only structures, wind-induced base shear ranges from 16%-33% for 1:1 aspect ratio and 21%-43% in the x-direction and 10%-20% in the y-direction for 1:2 aspect ratio, when compared to seismic actions. This difference decreases with increasing building height. Incorporating shear walls notably reduces the maximum lateral displacement across all scenarios, with core-located walls being most effective, leading to a 49% reduction in lateral displacement. Shear walls also substantially mitigate first-story column shear forces and bending moments. The study concludes that seismic actions are more critical than wind actions in Muscat for simple moment-resisting frame systems. Additionally, using shear walls in these buildings is highly beneficial for controlling lateral displacements and reducing member forces.

DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURE WITH ORDINARY MOMENT FRAME IN LOW SEISMIC REGION (CASE STUDY: MIDRISE SHOPPING BUILDING IN SINGKAWANG CITY)

This paper focuses on the design of a reinforced concrete structure for an eight-story shopping building in Singkawang City, located in a low to moderate seismic area. The study integrates relevant design considerations in response to the region's seismic conditions. Through structural analysis, the building is categorized as seismic design category B due to moderate seismic risk, leading to the selection of an ordinary moment-resisting frame system compliant with SNI 1726:2019. Emphasis is placed on the importance of using such a system to enhance ductility and prevent brittleness during earthquakes.The research emphasizes the need to design structures capable of withstanding various loads, including dead, superimposed dead, live, wind, and earthquake loads, particularly in West Kalimantan, known for its historically low to moderate seismic activity. Recent earthquake records highlight the necessity of earthquake-resistant design for safety and durability. Structural analysis confirms the building's stability against seismic forces, with a modal participation ratio meeting SNI 1726:2019 requirements, indicating robust response under seismic loads.The study also assesses inter-story drift and P-Delta effects to ensure they meet allowable limits, which is crucial for preserving structural integrity and preventing post-earthquake instability. A detailed reinforcement design following SNI 2847:2019 enhances structural strength and durability, especially when under seismic loading. The foundation design uses tailored hollow spun piles to provide sufficient bearing capacity and stability. This approach demonstrates resilience against potential seismic events in low-to-moderate seismic regions, highlighting the importance of integrating seismic design principles and ductility considerations for effective earthquake hazard mitigation.

Analisis Struktur Beton Bertulang Tahan Gempa Untuk Berbagai Variasi Tinggi Bangunan

Indonesia is a country prone to earthquakes because it is located at the confluence of the Pacific and Trans-Asiatic Circum. Padang is included in the 5-6 earthquake area (KDS E & F), which is an area that has the potential for an earthquake accompanied by the possibility of a tsunami., comfortable and safe against the dangers of an earthquake or tsunami. The most influential factor in the planning of high-rise building structures is the strength of the building structure itself, where this factor is closely related to the safety and resilience of the building in holding and accommodating the loads acting on the structure. Instability in the structure is a basic thing that must be avoided and considered for various types of building heights. An unstable structure when subjected to loads causes the structure to experience a greater deformation than a stable structure. One way that can be done to make the structure more stable is to combine the structure with Shear Walls. Shear wall systems can be used to withstand vertical forces such as gravity loads and horizontal/lateral forces such as earthquake and tsunami loads, thereby preventing excessive swaying of the structure. The use of shear walls is also intended so that when an earthquake and tsunami occurs, the lateral forces that affect the structure are not only resisted by the beam and column elements in the structure but are also resisted by the shear wall system. because the placement of the shear walls that are not appropriate causes the shear forces that occur in the columns and beams to be greater. The research object is multi-storey reinforced concrete buildings with variations in height of 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 floors. Buildings 5, 7 and 10 floors are designed with an open frame system, while buildings with floors 7, 10, 15 and 20 are designed with a double system, namely open portals and shear walls as lateral load resisters. Open portals use a Special Moment Resisting Frame System (SRPMK) design, while shear walls use a Special Structural Wall System (SDSK) design. The calculated structural loads are dead loads, live loads, superimposed dead loads and earthquake loads. Building location in the city of Padang with moderate soil conditions. The strength and stiffness of structures with shear walls are higher than those without shear walls

Changes in SNI-1726 and SNI-2847’S Effects on Low-Rise Reinforced Concrete Buildings’s Reinforcing Steel Weight

The updates of the Indonesian seismic design code (SNI 1726) and the reinforced concrete design code (SNI 2847) have been applied in practice simultaneously. Based on these new codes, seismic loads generally increase, especially for low-rise buildings, and the reinforcement design requirements become much more stringent. Therefore, the construction industry predicts that there will be a significant increase in the need for reinforcing steel. This paper would like to describe the comparison of the design reinforcing steel weight in a 4-story reinforced concrete case study building with a special moment resisting frame system, which is designed using a combination of SNI 1726:2012 and SNI 2847:2013, and which is designed using a combination of SNI 1726:2019 and SNI 2847:2019. This study was found that the increase in reinforcing steel is not proportional to the increase in seismic load and much smaller. This result can then be an illustration of how much increase in design reinforcing steel when using the new codes.

Seismic Study of Precast Steel-Reinforced Concrete Building using Shake Table Test

Precast Steel-Reinforced Concrete (PSRC) structural frame systems for moment-resisting, comprised of Prefabricated Steel (S) girders and Precast Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) columns. This structural system has the advantage of inherent stiffness and damping during a seismic event. PSRC’s moment-resisting frame system is also known for its construction efficiency, lightweight, and low cost. Earlier investigations have shown PSRC systems helpful in designing and constructing buildings while maintaining ample strength and high ductility during seismic incidents. Despite much previous research, the use of the PSRC structural system in India is still limited. Previous studies have accepted a vital need to test comprehensive structural systems, both experimentally and analytically - to validate the knowledge collected to date and act as evidence of concept for the PSRC moment-resisting frame system. This paper aims to facilitate more recognition and use of the PSRC structural system as a feasible choice for traditional RCC lateral resisting systems. A shake-table test was conducted to evaluate the PSRC building performance during maximum considered earthquake events. The comparative study of experimental and numerical results of the 1/4th scaled building is presented.

Structure Design Modification of DPW Nasdem Office Building using Steel Special Moment Resisting Frame

Manokwari is a District located at the junction of three main plates forming the earth's crust, namely the pacific plate. This makes Manokwari Regency prone to earthquakes. Therefore, building planning must be designed with the concept of earthquake-resistant buildings. Steel material is one type of material that is often used for planning earthquake-resistant building structures because it has high strength and lightweight properties that it is good for earthquake-resistant buildings. One of the methods often used in the planning of earthquake-resistant steel structures is the special moment resisting frame system (SMRF). This structural system is used because it has full ductility that it can survive in areas with a high earthquake risk. This planning modification was carried out at the DPW NasDem Office building by changing the main structure in the form of reinforced concrete using a steel structure with a special moment resisting frame system (SMRF). Based on the calculation and analysis, the results were obtained, namely: the dimensions of the secondary beam are IWF 300x150x6.5x9, the main beam 1 IWF 350x250x9x14, the main beam 2 IWF 300x200x9x14, the column dimensions KC 450x200x9x14 (floors 1-3), KC 400x200x8x13 (floors 4-5), and KC 350x175x7x11 (elevator columns). Floor slabs are 12 cm thick and 10 cm thick for roofing plates. The SRMF joint design uses a high-quality bolt (A325) with the quality of the BJ41 joint plate and the planning results meet the requirements.

Vertical floor spectra in low- and mid-rise elastic RC moment resisting frame buildings

To examine how floor spectral accelerations affect the design force of flexible Non-Structural Components (NSCs), the present study discusses the estimation of floor response spectra resulting from strong vertical seismic motion. 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-storey reinforced concrete buildings with moderately ductile moment-resisting frame systems, designed in accordance with the National Building Code of Canada [25] were selected for this research. 65 sets of historical records relating to 31 severe earthquakes from across the world were used to analyze the linear behavior of these structures. A constant amplification of the Vertical Floor Spectral Acceleration (FSAV) was observed along the building height. This amplification was noticeably elevated for slab nodes, especially at the center of the interior slab and in shorter buildings. Furthermore, the vertical component of the earthquake had a greater impact at shorter periods, since the maximum vertical acceleration occurred at periods lasting less than 0.35 sec. Finally, equations to estimate FSAV corresponding to the input vertical ground acceleration were proposed for typical code-conforming RC frame buildings.

Planning Earthquake-Resistant Upper Building Structures With Moment Grabbing Frame System In The Mardhika Park Apartment Building 20 Floors Tambun – Bekasi

Indonesia is an area with a high level of vulnerability to earthquake disasters, where this earthquake has caused a lot of losses and damage to building structures. Therefore, to reduce the risk due to the earthquake, it is necessary to plan earthquake-resistant building structures. The structural planning of building construction is needed to get the most effective and efficient dimensions and configuration of the structure. Collapsed buildings that are not strong enough to withstand lateral loads caused by the earthquake have resulted in significant loss of property and even lives. The purpose of writing this thesis is to design an earthquake-resistant Mardhika Park Apartment Building with a moment-resisting frame system (SRPM) which is planned in accordance with SNI 1726:2019 Earthquake (Earthquake Resistance Planning Procedures for Building and Non-Building Structures), SNI 2847 for Reinforced Concrete: 2019 (Requirements for structural concrete for buildings and their explanations), and the loading in accordance with SNI 1727:2020 for (Minimum Loads for Design of Buildings and Other Structures). The structural design of the Mardhika Park Apartment Building includes the design of this superstructure which includes columns, beams, and floor plates. Then the loads that are reviewed for structural element planning are dead, live, and earthquake loads. To assist in calculating the structure is also used Software "SAP2000 " to facilitate the calculation of the structure.

Fiber-based model for simulating strength and stiffness deterioration of high-strength steel beams

This paper focuses on the behavior, modeling, and evaluation of high-strength steel beams used as girders in moment resisting frame systems (MRFs). The results of the evaluation have led to the development and calibration of effective (phenomenological) stress–strain curves and fiber-based finite element approaches for modeling the behavior of high-strength steel beams. The key parameters influencing the cyclic behavior of high-strength steel beams are: (i) shape/geometric details, (ii) flange and web slenderness ratios, (iii) material stress–strain behavior, and (iv) fracture/damage failure criteria. This paper summarizes prior experimental results on the cyclic behavior of high-strength steel beams and develops 3D finite element models to simulate their behavior. The models are developed cognizant of the parameters (i)–(iv) listed above. The models are validated against experimental data and then used to conduct parametric studies to evaluate the effects of material and geometric parameters on the cyclic behavior and ductility of high-strength steel beams. The developed effective stress–strain relationships hold the key to developing potential design methods based on allowable strain criteria and/or continuous strength methods recently developed by other researchers.

Proposed seismic design parameters for the moment-resisting knee-braced frame system

This paper proposes and verifies the seismic design parameters, including overstrength-related force modification factor, ductility-related force modification factor, deflection amplification factor, and design period, for the steel Moment-resisting Knee-braced Frame (MKF) system. The building selected in this study is an office located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in which MKFs act as the lateral load-resisting system. 14 prototype frames spanning a wide range of geometrical configurations are designed following the requirements of the 2015 National Building Code (2015 NBC) of Canada. Nonlinear static analyses are carried out on the prototype frames to determine the preliminary ductility and overstrength factors. Six new MKFs (assessment frames) are designed using the proposed overstrength and ductility factors, and their seismic and collapse performances are examined by comprehensive numerical analyses, considering the effects of the potential sources of ground motion expected on the Canadian west coast, namely subduction intraslab, subduction interface and shallow crustal events. The results of this study suggest that the MKF system shall be designed as a moderately ductile system using overstrength and ductility factors of 1.60 and 3.0, respectively, with a height not exceeding 40 m in regions of high seismicity.

Robustness assessment of RC frame buildings with HPFRCC subjected to progressive collapse

Beam-column joints are one of the most critical components of RC structures, affecting the structure's performance under different types of loads. In recent years, some researchers have considered high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) as an alternative to conventional concrete for improving the performance of beam-column joints. The effects of HPFRCC materials on the robustness of reinforced concrete structures subjected to progressive collapse were investigated in this study. To this end, the method proposed by Fascetti et al. was utilized to assess the robustness of three five-story RC buildings with a moment-resisting frame system. The buildings were designed as special moment frames (SMF), intermediate moment frames (IMF), and intermediate moment frames with HPFRCC at joints (IMF-H) per ACI 318–14. The OpenSees finite element platform has been widely used for 3D buildings simulation and nonlinear analysis. In this study, the analyses and calculated robustness indices indicated that using HPFRCCs materials in beam-column joints significantly improved the robustness of concrete moment frames subject to progressive collapse. Furthermore, the damage distribution based on plastic rotation results confirmed that the robustness of concrete moment frames with HPFRCC joints subjected to progressive collapse was significantly improved.
