Lecture 5

The document discusses response spectra and D-V-A curves, which relate the maximum response of single-degree-of-freedom oscillators to ground motions of different frequencies. It provides examples of smoothed spectra for the El Centro earthquake and code-specific design response spectra. The document also describes how to calculate structural response directly from a response spectrum through static analysis.

Response Spectra (D-V-A Curve)
A response curve is a graph of the maximum, or a spectral response of a range of single
degree of freedom oscillators to a specified ground motion, plotted against the
frequency (w) or period (T) of the oscillators.
The recorded response may be displacement, velocity or acceleration. The relationship
between these functions are..

Peak structural response from the response spectrum
If the response spectrum is available for a given ground motion, the peak value of
deformation and internal forces can be readily determined.

No further dynamic is required. Only static analysis of structure subjected to the


equivalent static force provides the peak values of internal forces during response to the
given earthquake.
