Earthquake Load
ES EN 1998-1:2014Introduction
+ An earthquake is the vibration of earth produced by the rapid
release of accumulated energy in elastically strained rocks.
= Itis the earth’s natural means of releasing stress
+ Energy released radiates in all directions from its source, the
focus;
= Energy propagates in the form of seismic waves;
+ Their time of occurrence is not exactly predictable
= However earthquake prone areas can be identified
= Resulting from a rupture or a sudden movement along an
existing fault in the earth’s crustHow does an earthquake damage buildings?
1. Ground Shaking
Y This is the most common and the principal cause of
earthquake—induced damage.
v As the earth vibrates the building on the ground starts
responding to the vibration in varying degrees depending upon
how these have been designed and constructed.
2. Ground Failure
There are four types of ground failures i.e.,
Y fault,
v landslides,
Y settlement and
Y soil liquefactionBehavior of a building during an earthquake

>Earthquake Resisting Structure
= Structures should not be brittle, ductile designing is
preferred and it should not collapse suddenly.
=It should be tough and be able to show inelastic
deformation.
= Resisting elements such as bracing or shear walls must be
provided evenly throughout the building
= Highly integral structure is preferred so that separation of
parts will not occur during earthquake
= Materials used must be of good quality
= Care shall be taken on the proper foundation designMeasurement of Earthquakes
"There are two terms used to define the measurement of
earthquakes:
>Magnitude: refers to a measure of its size in terms of energy
released and radiated in the form of seismic waves.
Intensity: The potential destruction of an earthquake at a
particular location. It depends on focal depth, epicenter distance,
local geology and structural characteristics in addition to the
magnitude of earthquake.Ground Conditions And Seismic Action
= According to EBCS EN 1998-1:2014 there are five ground types
= Two additional soil profiles (S, and S,) are also included
+ For sites with ground conditions matching either one of these
ground types, special studies for the definition of the seismic
action are required
= Three parameters are used in the classification
* the value of the average shear wave velocity, v, 35
* the number of blows in the standard penetration test (Ngpy)
* the undrained cohesive resistance (c,)|Groun Parameters

= Fundamental Requirements
o No-collapse requirement
o Damage limitation requirement
= Compliance Criteria: to satisfy the fundamental requirements
the following limit states shall be checked
o ultimate limit states;
o damage limit statesBasic Representation of Seismic Action
= Within the scope of ES EN 1998-1:2014 the earthquake motion
represented by elastic ground acceleration response spectrum,
called elastic response spectrum
= Alternative representations of the seismic action
= Time - history representation
= Spatial model of the seismic actionSeismic Zone
It depends on the local hazard
The hazard is described in terms of a the value of the reference
peak ground acceleration on type A ground, agp
The reference peak ground acceleration chosen for seismic zone
corresponds to a_ reference return period of 475 years (10%
probability of exceedance in 50 years).
An importance factor y equal to 1.0 is assigned to this reference
return period.
For other return periods design ground acceleration on type A
ground a, is equal to a,p times importance factor y (a,= Y;.agp)

Modeling
Adequately represent the distribution of stiffness and mass
Consider rigid or flexible diaphragms (diaphragms may be taken as
rigid if due to its deformation displacements do not vary more than
10%)
For regular buildings, it is acceptable to use two separate plane
models, one for each main direction.
In concrete, composite and in masonry buildings the stiffness of the
load bearing elements should take into account the effect of
cracking.
