2010 USERS GUIDE

INPUT FORMAT A free format is used to read all input data. Hence, conventional delimiters (commas, blanks) may be used to separate data items. Standard FORTRAN variable format is used to distinguish integers and floating point numbers. Input data must, therefore, conform to the specified variable type. Notes: 1. Provision is made for a line of text between each set of data items. Refer to the sample data files accompanying this Manual. 2. No blank lines are to be input. 3. A zero input will result in program default values, where applicable. SET A: GENERAL INFORMATION Title of Probem: TITLE Description: TITLE: Alpha-numeric title, up to 80 characters. Control Data (See Figure A-1): USER_TEXT NSO, NFR, NCON, NSTL, NMSR, NPDEL, IFLEX, IFLEXDIST, IPC Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. NSO: Number of stories. NFR: Number of typical (non-identical) frames NCON: Number of different concrete material properties sets. NSTL: Number of different steel reinforcement properties sets. NMSR: Number of different masonry material properties sets. NPDEL: 0 to ignore P-Delta effects, or 1 to include P-Delta effects. IFLEX: 0 for Spread Plasticity 1 for Concentrated Plasticity IFLEXDIST 0 for linear flexibility distribution 1 for uniform flexibility distribution IPC: 0 for Unix operating system, or 1 for DOS/WINDOWS operating system. Notes: For steel structures no information about material is required. A structure must be decomposed into a series of parallel frames. Input is required only for non-identical frames, denoted here by the integer variable

NFR. The number of duplicates of each typical frame is specified later in this DATA SET. The entire group of frames can be defined in the IDARC L-I-J nodal locater system. This concept is shown graphically in Figure A-1.

Fig. A-1 Frame Discretization and Nodal Identification

Three examples of different frame definitions are shown. In Figure A-1a, the four-story building made up of a total of four frames is assumed to have two pairs of identical frames, hence, only two of them need be input in IDARC (NFR=2). The cantilever beam/column shown in Figure A-1b is defined as a single-story structure with one column line. Likewise, the subassemblage shown in Figure 1c is defined as a 2-story structure with three column lines. The number of concrete and steel properties refer to the number of stress-strain envelopes to be input in Set B and Set C respectively.

SET A1: ELEMENT TYPES

Control Data (See Figure A-1): USER_TEXT MCOL, MBEM, MWAL, MEDG, MTRN, MSPR, MBRV, MBRF, MBRH, MIW Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. MCOL: No. of column types. MBEM: No. of beam types. MWAL: No. of shear wall types. MEDG: No. of edge column types. MTRN: No. of transverse beam types. MSPR: No. of rotational spring types. MBRV: No. of visco-elastic brace types. MBRF: No. of friction brace types. MBRH: No. of hysteretic brace types. MIW: No. of infill panel types. Notes: Elements are grouped into identical sets based on cross-section data and initial conditions such as axial loads. For example, in the exterior frame shown in Figure A-1a, there are 8 columns. Typically, the exterior columns at each level will be identical, hence, only 4 column types need to be defined. The interior frame, assuming identical interior and exterior columns in each floor, will require only 8 column types to define all 16 elements, i.e., 2 types per each level as shown in the Figure.

SET A2: ELEMENT DATA

Control Data: USER_TEXT NCOL, NBEM, NWAL, NEDG, NTRN, NSPR, NMR, NBR, NIW Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. NCOL: No. of columns. NBEM: No. of beams. NWAL: No. of shear walls. NEDG: No. of edge columns.

NTRN: No. of transverse beams. NSPR: No. of rotational springs. NMR: No. of moment releases. NBR: No. of braces (VE + friction + hysteretic). NIW: No. of infill panels. Notes: NMR is used to specify moment releases (hinge locations) at member ends. Releasing a moment at a member end results in a hinge condition at that end thereby disallowing moments to develop at the section.

SET A3: SYSTEM OF UNITS

Control Flag: USER_TEXT IU Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. IU: System of units 1 for inch, kips 2 for mm, kN DEFAULT SYSTEM OF UNITS: inch, kip A zero input for IU will result in the use of inch and kip units.

NDUP(i): List with the number of duplicate frames of typical (non-identical) frame i. Notes: In the sample structure shown in Figure A-1, there are four frames. However, the two interior frames are identical as are the exterior frames. In this case, NFR=2, and NDUP(1) = NDUP(2) = 2. If there is no identical frame, NDUP=1.

SET A6: PLAN CONFIGURATION

Control Data: USER_TEXT NVLN(1), NVLN(2), ..., NVLN(NFR) Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. NVLN(i): Number of column lines (or J-locater points) in frame i. Notes: A set of NVLN points for each frame should define completely the column lines necessary to specify every vertical element in that frame. If a beam element is subdivided into two or more segments, then the number of column lines specified must include these internal beam nodes as well.

SET A7: NODAL WEIGHTS

Control Data (See Figure A-2): USER_TEXT LEVEL, IFR(1), WVT(1), WVT(2), ..., WVT(NVLN(1)) IFR(2), WVT(1), WVT(2), ..., WVT(NVLN(2)) .....repeat for NFR frames ....repeat for NSO levels (in ascending or descending order) Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. LEVEL: Story level number. IFR(J): Frame number. WVT(K): Nodal weight. Notes: 1. Nodal weights in force units (kN) are used internally for the story mass computation, and they are not-cumulative quantities (from tributary area only). Nodal weights are not used to specify gravity or vertical loads. 2. Vertical loads need to be declared in SET M1, if necessary. 3. Nodal weights may be input in ascending or descending story level. 4. In ordinary analyses, reduced weight is used.

Notes: Hysteretic behavior is specified at both ends of each member. Access to experimental results of the cyclic force-deformation characteristics of components typical to the structure being analyzed provides the best means of specifying the above degrading parameters. Table A-1 and Figure A-5 provide a number of qualitative insights into modeling of the hysteretic parameters. The loops shown in Figure A-5 are only meant to show the relative effects of changing the parameters. The general meaning of the parameters can be characterized as follows: An increase in HC retards the amount of stiffness degradation; an increase in HBD,HBE accelerates the strength deterioration; and an increase in HS reduces the amount of slip. (Also refer to Section 3.3 of this report)

(THIS INPUT NOT REQUIRED IF STRUCTURE HAS NO TRANSVERSE BEAMS OR IS MADE OF IDENTICAL BEAMS ONLY) Reference Text: USER_TEXT Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. Transverse Beam Data (Provide one line for each MTRN transverse beam type): KT, AKV, ARV, ALV Description: KT: Transverse beam type set number AKV: Vertical Stiffness ARV: Torsional Stiffness ALV: Element length

Repeat for each of MTRN elements Notes: 1. Transverse elements are assumed to remain elastic. The degree of fixity at the ends will depend on the state of the joint and the state of the members that frame into the joint before and during the application of load. If the entire region is expected to stay elastic, then the vertical stiffness should be computed as : AKV = 12 EI / L3 . In the extreme case that one of ends do not transmit stiffness due to yielding of adjoining members or deterioration of the joint, then AKV = 3EI / L3 . An intermediate value is a good average approximation. 2. If duplicate frames are present, extreme care should be taken in specifying transverse beam properties. The program multiplies the input values by the number of duplicate frames to which they are attached. For example, for the frames shown in Figure A-1, NDUP(1) = NDUP(2) = 2. The program will factor the input stiffness values by (NDUP(1)+NDUP(2))=4.0. Input stiffnesses should, therefore, be modified to account for this effect. If the modeling of transverse elements is not crucial to the analysis, the use of duplicate frames should be avoided.

SET M: ANALYSIS OPTIONS

General Data: USER_TEXT IOPT USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of Description: text. IOPT: Option for continuing analysis: 0 , STOP (Data check mode). 1 , for Inelastic incremental static analysis (with static loads.if specified) 2 , for Monotonic "pushover" analysis including static loads (if specified). 3 , for Inelastic dynamic analysis including static loads (if specified). 4 , for Quasi-static cyclic analysis including static loads (if specified).

Notes: It is generally advisable to use the "data check" mode for the first trial run of a new data set. The program performs only minimal checking of input data. Structural elevation plots generated by IDARC help identify errors in connectivity specification. Since IDARC prints all input data almost immediately after they are read, the task of detecting the source of input errors is generally expedited. It is also important to verify all printed output, especially section properties such as flexural stiffness and yield moment. OPTION 1 permits an independent nonlinear static analysis. Static loads are input in data set M1. OPTIONS 2 - 4 may be combined with long-term static loads which is input in data set M1.

Control Information: USER_TEXT NLU, NLJ, NLM, NLC Description: USER_TEXT: Reference information, up to 80 characters of text. NLU: No. of uniformly loaded beams. NLJ: No. of laterally loaded joint.

Steps between printing output (If IOCRL=0, only final results will be printed; if IOCRL=2, printout will result every 2 steps, and so on). Notes: Dead and live loads that exist prior to the application of seismic or quasi-static cyclic loads can be input in this section. Such loads are typically specified through uniformly loaded beam members. An option is also available for lateral load analysis and the specification of nodal loads at joints. When used in conjunction with Options 2-4, the resulting forces are carried forward to the monotonic, dynamic and quasi-static analysis. These loads are used for calculation of initial bending stresses, and do not affect the axial loads. The stresses are calculated through a global analysis of the structure (uniform loads on beams is automatically considered in columns).

The input accelerogram is scaled uniformly to achieve the specified peak acceleration. DTCAL should not exceed the time interval of the input wave, DTINP. The nonlinear analysis of the structure is often very sensitive to the choice for DTCAL, a value of 0.005 is suggested for typical buildings, however, a smaller value may be necessary if drastic changes in the stiffness of the elements are expected, or if the structure consists of only a few elements. Larger values can be used for smoother transitions in the stiffness of the elements. Often an inadequate choice of this parameter will yield large unbalanced forces, that may cause numerical instabilities, and stop the execution of the program, or report extremely large values in the damage indices (DI>>3) of some or all elements. 2. The ratio (DTINP/DTCAL) must yield an integer number.
