Abstract:
Although a number of investigation on seismic behavior of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) frame were carried out, few investigations have been reported on the seismic behavior of CFST frame considering SSI. Modal analysis and seismic behavior of a 4-storey CFST frame were investigated by software Ansys in this paper. Stiffness of soil mass solved from Mindlin formula and mass-damping element to simulate soil mass were employed to reduce the structural mode of the frame so as to decrease the running time. The modal test results in laboratory shows that natural frequencies decrease whilst periods increase considering SSI. Three earthquake wave records were used to analyze the seismic responses of both rigid and SSI frames. The simulation shows that the translation deformation and torsional deformation one considering SSI increase from 12 to 62.75 percent. As a result, SSI should be appropriately considered in the seismic design due to the effect of SSI on the seismic responses to some extent.
