description | The article addresses the problem of safety evaluation of steel moment frames of civil buildings, e.g., warehouses, shops, garages, and multistory industrial buildings on deformable soil in the relevant case of an emergency impact. The case of accidental emergency impacts is considered when such parameters as the point, direction, and intensity of an impact cannot be predetermined. Such impacts are not expected to trigger the progressive collapse of currently implemented design solutions and the whole structure must maintain the property of survivability. To evaluate this property, several calculations are to be made in the quasi-static statement to identify the stress–strain state under the most dangerous accidental impacts. Further, final calculations are to be made in the dynamic statement. In this case, the problem of search is solved using the criterion of minimizing the integral safety margin of structural elements in a steel moment frame design. Calculations prevent the frame stability loss. The calculation is performed in the quasi-static statement using models made in compliance with the deformation theory of plasticity, while the calculation in the dynamic statement takes into account the associated plastic flow rule. The proposed procedures allow for designing steel moment frames that are resistant to accidental emergency impacts. Impact loading is analysed as pulse loading, which is statically equivalent to the dynamic effect of an inelastic impact of a stiff body on a structural system. The design and the efficiency evaluation of a steel moment frame of a two-story building are considered. |
