Evaluation of combination rules for maximum response calculation in multicomponent seismic analysis

Abstract: The paper in discussion [1] presents an interesting comparison of various combination rules for maximum response calculation under two-component horizontal earthquake motions. The authors should be commended for their contribution, in particular for the error bounds they have presented for each of the combination rules examined.The purpose of this discussion is to bring to the authors' attention some past pertinent work by the writer [2], who addressed not the same but a similar problem 20 years ago, and also … Show more

“…The CQC3 response spectrum rule for combining the contributions from three orthogonal components of ground motion to the maximum value of a response quantity is presented in the work by Menun and Der Kiureghian [18]. In two works by Lopez et al [19,20] it is proposed an explicit formula, convenient for code applications, in order to calculate the critical value of the structural response to the two principal horizontal components acting along any incident angle with respect to the structural axes, and the vertical component of ground motion. In two works by Menun and Der Kiureghian [21,22] a response spectrum based procedure for predicting the envelope that bounds two or more responses in a linear structure is developed.…”

“…In typical concrete design, however, multiple interacting response quantities are often considered. The combination methods for multiple interacting response quantities are distinctly different from those for a single response quantity [10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…This is the largest possible peak output for any input with a spectral envelope equal to or less than a specified envelope. Other authors [Baratta et al, 1998, Lopez et al, 2000and 2001 The contribution of x~( t ) to the total response will be the same as given by equation 4.3. The relative phases between the inputs are given by FH.…”

“…Other cases with single inputs and responses have also been studied are called the critical response [Lopez et al, 2000and 2001, Baratta et al, 1998 In the examples of this paper the input is force and the output is acceleration. But it is important to understand that the method is much more general.…”
