“ONLY A MATTER OF TIME” Comprehending Time History Analysis

(THA) and Non-Linear Dynamic Analysis (NLDA) 1st ISSEP Technical

Conference, April 20-21,2018, Novotel Hotel, Quezon City

Dr. Rhommel N. Grutas, Ph.D.

Senior Science Research Specialist
Head, Earthquake Engineering and Strong Motion Section

▪To compare the different design
response spectral computations from
different codes
▪Status and performance of the
current NSCP 2015 code and if we are
ready to adapt to International
Building Code (IBC) 2012-2016.
▪ Actual Spectra not used in design
▪ Rough in shape
▪ Specific to ground motion

▪ Represents many Earthquakes

▪ Smooth shape
▪ Guidelines for calculation in building
codes

Wells and Coppersmith (1994, Bull. Seism. Soc. Am.):
Mag = 5.08+1.16*log(Length) (all rupture types)
Mag = 5.16+1.12*log(Length) (strike slip rupture)
Mag = 5.00+1.22*log(Length) (reverse or thrust
rupture)
Mag = 4.86+1.32*log(Length) (normal rupture)
