TECHNICAL NOTE
AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF POINT SPRING SUPPORTS
BASED ON DEFINED SOIL PROFILES AND COLUMN-FOOTING
PROPERTIES
Introduction
This technical note describes the capability whereby foundation springs and
dashpots can automatically be generated to represent the flexibility and damping associated with soil-foundation interaction in translational and rotational
vibration modes for shallow foundations (i.e., isolated column footings).
The methodology used for calculation of the shallow foundation translational
stiffness and damping coefficients is based on a NIST report (NISTGCR 12917-21) titled Soil-Structure Interaction for Building Structures, September
2012. Chapter 2 of this report presents the detailed procedures for computing
foundation stiffness and damping.
The input required for automatic generation of soil springs and dashpots at
column bases include geotechnical and shear wave velocity profiles, soil shear
strength parameters and their variation with depth, Poissons ratios, soil hysteretic damping ratios, column footing geometries, and a building period.
Procedural Overview
The following steps are typically involved when automatically generating column base point springs and dashpots from soil profiles and column footing
geometry.
1. Define soil profiles. This includes soil layering information for the site
in terms of shear wave velocity profiles and material profiles.
2. Define isolated column footings. Required information consists of
gross footing dimensions and footing embedment depth.
3. Define point spring properties using the soil profiles and isolated column footing definitions as described above. This definition also requires the first mode of vibration period for the building.
4.
Based on the procedure described above, soil springs and dashpots will automatically be created for the selected column bases.
