Seismic performance assessment of existing URM-RC buildings: a BIM-based methodology
| Resumo: | In the present work, a BIM environment has been employed in order to streamline the numerical modelling and structural seismic analysis of existing URM-RC buildings, taking advantage of the interoperability between the BIM modelling software and the numerical analysis software. Thus, the main objective is the validation of an assessment methodology based on the discussion and comparison between the experimental test results from a shaking table test campaign, and the numerical results obtained with two different approaches: an advanced numerical modelling approach based on Finite Element Models (FEM), and a simplified numerical modelling approach based on Equivalent Frame Models (EFM). A comparative study of the modelling strategies will put forward their advantages and limitations when applied to mixed URM-RC buildings, and to investigate the suitability of the chosen approaches to assess the influence of the strengthening interventions for the case-study building. |
