NEWMARK “The final stage of preparation of this monograph was interrupted by the untimely death of one of the authors, Nathan M. New- mark (1910-1981). longtime member of the Earthquake Eng ncering Research Institute, Professor Newmark was one of the pioneers in the field of earthquake engineering. With his students atthe University of Iinois, he arred on research onthe effects ‘of earthquake ground shaking on structures and om the design fof structures 10 resist seismic stresses and strains. He was also very active in engineering consultation on aseismic design of ‘major projets including: nuclear power plants throughout the United States and in foreian counties the high-rise Latino Americana Tower building in Mexico City, the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit System; the Alaska Oil Pipe Line and ‘ollers. His advice was frequently sought by governmental agencies fon engineering problems of national importance. Many of his former students are themselves now prominent in earthquake engincering research and practice, so his influence wil continue to be flt in civil enginecring. During his carer Dr, Newntark received many hoaors and award, including the National Medal fof Science—through his death the engineering profession has Jost one ofits most eminent members Pau C, Jenner President, FERL Lotino-Americon Tower. When constructed in the early 19505, this 43-story stee-frame skyscraper, rising 486 ft above street level with a superimposed 138. televsion tower, was the tallest Dullding south ofthe U.S border. The principal designers were ‘A. Zeevaer and L. Zeevaet, with the resmic design, based on the principles of madera dynamic analysis, being the respon- sibility of NM. Newnark. In 1957 the building withstood with- ‘out damage the largest earthquake on record in Mexico (MIM ‘VIL-VII; displacement measurements at three floor levels documented thatthe building responded as designed, 6 FOREWORD The oceurrence of earthquakes poses a hazard to cities that can lead to disaster unless appropriate engineering countermeasures areemployed, Revent earthquake disasters wih high death lls in Guatemala, 1976 20,000); Tangshan, China, 1976 ($00,000); Iran, 1978 (19,000); Algiers, 1980 (10,000; Italy, 1980 €500) demonstrate the great advantages that could be gained by earth ‘quake resistant consteuction. To provide an adequate degree of| safety at an affordable cost requires a high level of expertise in farthquake engineering and this in turn requires an extensive knowledge of the properties of strong earthquakes and of the dynamics of structures that are moved by ground shaking. To lachieve this is nevessary for relevant information to be pub- lished in an appropriate form, Tis monograph by N.M. Newmark and W. J. Hallo earth- ‘quake resistant design considerations isthe tied in projected series of monograph on different aspects of earthquake engi- neering. The monographs are by experts especially qualified to prepare expositions ofthe subjects. Each monograph covers a Single topic, with more thorough icatment then would be given tot ina textbook on earthquake engineering. The monograph series grew out of the seminars on earthquake engineering that, were organized by the Earthquake Engincering Reseach Insti- tte and presented to some 2,000 engineers. The seminars were sven in 8 localities which had requested them: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Seattle, St. Lous, ‘Puerto Rio, and Houston, The seminars were aimed 8 acqaint- Ing engineers, building officials and members of government agencies with the basis of earthquake engineering. Inthe couse fof these seminars i became apparent that amore detaled writen presentation would be of vate 1 thore wishing to study earth~ ‘quake engineering, and this ed to the monograph projec. The present monograph discusses important aspects of structural ‘desig that are diferent in seismic engineering than in designing to resist gravity loads. ‘The EERI monograph projet, and also the seminar series, were supported by the National Science Foundation. EERI member MS. Agbabian served as Coordinator of the seminar series and also is serving as Coordinator of the monograph project. Technical editor for the series is J.W. Atty. Each monograph is reviewed by the members of the Monograph ‘Commitee: M.S. Agbabian, G.V. Berg, R. W. Clough, H.1 Degenkolb, G.W. Housner, and C.W. Pinkham, with the objective of maintaining ahish standard of presentation. Geonce W. Houser Chairman, Monograph Commitie Pasadena, California March, 1982 EET ooo Eee PREFACE Recent major earthquakes in Alaska (1964), San Fernando, California 1971), and Peru (1970), with their accompanying ‘massive land and submarine slides, atest to the need for con sidering such natural hazards thelr possibilty of eecurence and their consequences. Because our expandine popilation is con centrated in large metropolitan centers with a proliferation of ‘man-nvade structures and Facies, the number of incidents and extent of the consequences (oss of life, injury, and loss of prop erty or damage) from such disasters can be expevied to increase in the years ahead. Even in geographical areas where seismic risk is assumed t0 be low, as in the eastern United Stats, consequences of a possible large earthquake are serious and quire careful consieration, ‘An even greter consequence is thatthe technology of our society requires the use of structures and fais whose damage or destruction by natural hazards could be very serous, for ‘example nuclear powerplants, large dams, and certain pipelines, felines, and industrial facilities, Damage to such “eritial facilites" which include hospitals, emergency service falites and essential utlities~ean affet the public wellbeing through loss of life, large Financial los, or depradation of the environ ‘ment if they were to fail functionally. Some ofthese facilis ‘must be designed to remain operable immediately after an incl {ent to provide ifesupport services to the communities affected ‘The goal of earthquake engincering isto ennite that in the ‘vent of an earthquake there willbe no serious injury of loss of | life. From the physical standpoin, the eneral purpose of er (quake resistant design isto provide structure capable of resist jing ground mosions expected to oovur during the etme of the structure. In this case the objetive centers partly on economics, as wells life safety, in thatthe design is made such a mannet that ideally the cost of repair of earthquake damage will not exceed the increased design, construction, and financing costs necessary to have prevented the damage inthe fist place In the ease of industrial facilities, the goal also i that of minimizing or i liminating operational disruptions. Moreover, through Attention to design and construction, another objective is that ‘of mitigating serious falute of collapse inthe event of major ‘earthquake, Le. larger than the seismic hazard for which the Gesign was made; this isto be done however rare the probability ofits oceurrence For building-ype structures, seismic design procedures, such 4s those included in building code, usualy prevail and are enforceable under the applicable juriictional authority, The seismic provisions of standard building codes generally center around the philosophy expressed in the preceding paragraph, For critical facies, special seismic design evteria are developed 48 part of the design process. In such cass, comprehensive ‘scologcal and seismological investigations are usually requlzed, ‘The development of seismic design eriteria that are sound in Drineple fo such situations requires close cooperation between the geologist, seismotogist, earthquake engineer, architect and lent droughout the design proces if viable and economically Satisfactory projet i tobe achieved ‘The purpose of this monograph isto describe briefly some of the concepts and procures underying modern earthquake engineering, especialy as it applies co building structures. The presentation was developed so as to convey in some logical se ‘quence the materia presented by the authors inthe EERE lecture Series in certain areas brief updating has been added.
