Earthquake hazard and risk
• Earthquake hazard: Any physical phenomenon, such as ground h ki d f il th t ishaking or ground failure, that is
associated with an earthquake and that may produce adverse effects on h man acti ities (Science andhuman activities. (Science and Technology Dictionary)
• Earthquake risk: The probability that i l i fsocial or economic consequences of
earthquakes will equal or exceed specified values at a site, at several sites or in an area during asites, or in an area, during a specified exposure time. (STD)

Amplitude parameters - PGA and PGV
• Peak ground acceleration (PGA): related to the force induced in rigid structures
• Peak ground velocity (PGV): good correlation to damage in structures• Disadvantage
A i l k i f l ti• A single peak is a poor measure for a complex motion.• Structural properties are not accounted for.

Particularities of the elastic approach
• Advantages: • Takes into account the dynamic properties of the ”building” by the
fundamental period (T) and damping (ξ).• Shortcomings:
• The simplification of a structure into an SDOF may not be acceptable.The simplification of a structure into an SDOF may not be acceptable.• The supposition that the oscillator is elastic is also restrictive. Usually,
it is not feasible to build buildings which withstand earthquakes in the elastic rangeelastic range.
• Solutions:• Use of multi-mass oscillator (MDOF).
C bi lti l ib ti d Ad t ith “ ti ” ffi i t• Combine multiple vibration modes. Adapt with “correction” coefficients and procedures the SDOF response to an MDOF response.

Definition of design goals in ”modern” codes
• At ultimate limit state (ULS) Ec8 aims at “no-collapse requirement”. • This means that the structure shall withstand the design seismic g
actions (DSA) without local or global collapse and must retain structural integrity and a residual load bearing capacity. The primary aim is to save the lives of the occupantsprimary aim is to save the lives of the occupants.
• DSA defined by a reference seismic action with probability of exceedence of 10 % in 50 years, or the reference return period of 475475 years.

Base shear force
The base shear force acts in both principal directions of the building.
Fb = Sd (T0) W λWhere T is the fundamental period of the buildingWhere T0 is the fundamental period of the buildingSd is the ordinate of the design spectrumW is the total weight of the building (see Chapter 6)λ is a correction factor, having a value of 0,85 if T0<TC or 1,0 otherwise.
To estimate the fundamental period, T0, of the building, EC8 has a simple procedure:
T0 = 0.05 H0.750
