Arup seismic engineers specialise in the development
of innovative, practical and cost-efficient solutions
and consistently create exceptional value for clients.
Arup is a world leader in the application of
performance-based design techniques. Our
techniques achieve significant monetary savings
and other lifecycle cost benefits for developers and
owners of buildings, industrial, nuclear power and
petrochemical facilities (onshore and offshore) and
infrastructure assets.
Performance-based seismic engineering is now an
established technology for the more economical
design of structures to resist earthquakes. This has
become possible through the marriage of stateof-the-art numerical simulation technology with
experimental and field data obtained from vast
research programmes in the USA and Japan into
the performance of structural elements subjected
to the damaging effects of strong earthquake
ground motions.
Base isolation and passive energy dissipation
devices are established technologies available
for seismic risk mitigation. Arup has been a world
leader in applying seismic isolators, Unbonded
Brace™ and viscous/visco-elastic dampers to
reduce the potential of seismic damage for new
and existing structures.
We present some examples of how our expertise
has made a real difference to the cost, and in some
cases the viability, of a variety of recent building
projects. Industrial and infrastructure projects are
illustrated in a separate brochure.

The performance-based approach enables us to
design new structures more economically and to
assess existing structures more realistically (often
resulting in reduced need for retrofit). In addition,
we can develop – and validate by advanced
simulation – innovative solutions that make stepchange improvements to the financial viability of
a project. The reduced material consumption that
results from the adoption of this approach also
makes a positive contribution to the sustainability
of new developments.

HIGH RISE BUILDINGS
Caption:
Conventional ‘code based’ design is unsuitable
for high-rise buildings as has been recognised
in Japan and China for many years. It is now
increasingly understood all around the world
that the performance-based procedures used
in these countries are essential to ensure safe
and economic designs.
Arup has over 20 years experience in performancebased seismic design of high-rise buildings utilising
nonlinear response history analysis. This started
with the 26 storey Century Tower in Tokyo in 1985
and in 1996 we designed the Osaka International
Convention Center, incorporating the innovative
Nippon Steel ‘Unbonded Brace’ component to
enable the unusual architectural form to be delivered
with superior performance in extreme earthquakes.

In 2004 we designed the tallest building in Beijing,
the 317m Beijing World Trade Center Mega Tower
and the iconic 234m tall China Central Television
Headquarters building. Our comprehensive
performance-based approach enabled the designs
of these ground breaking projects to be progressed
on schedule and resulted in rapid approval from
the Chinese Expert Review Panel.

The 60 storey twin towers of St Francis Shangri-la
Place, Manila, the tallest residential buildings in the
Philippines, were completed structurally in 2008.
These reinforced concrete buildings are located
2km from an active fault in a highly seismic region
also subjected to typhoons. Originally designed to
UBC 1997, performance-based analysis highlighted
major deficiencies in the code seismic provisions
for buildings of this type. In a major re-design of the
structure, Arup introduced a novel damping system
in which viscous dampers connect outriggers from
the core to the perimeter columns. The damping so
derived controls wind-induced motions and improves
the seismic performance – which was assessed
directly by nonlinear response history analysis.
This approach resulted in both improved seismic
performance and reduced member sizes and
reinforcement densities. Multi-million US dollars of
savings were achieved in the super-structure alone.

Arup has pioneered the use of seismic protection
technology to improve the performance of new and
existing structures.
Following our first use of the novel Unbonded BraceTM
in Japan on the 26 storey Osaka International
Convention Centre and then on Toyota Stadium,
we introduced unbonded braces to the USA. They
were first installed in the Plant and Environmental
Sciences building of University of California, Davis.
Subsequently this technology, combined with our
performance-based design approach, numerical
virtual testing and nonlinear dynamic analysis
techniques, has been applied to many other
projects including the Kaiser Permanente Santa
Clara Medical Center building.
Seismic isolation is a well established technique to
reduce seismic demands on critical facilities. We
conceived the world’s first application of this seismic
isolation technology to a major offshore project,
the Lunskoye and the PA-B gas platforms off the
eastern coast of Sakhalin Island, Russia.
Here, four Friction PendulumTM isolators (each
supporting 13,000 tonnes) are installed between the
topside and the concrete gravity base structures.
In our design for the Sabiha Gökçen International
Airport Istanbul, Turkey, the entire superstructure
is protected by triple pendulum friction pendulum
isolators, in order to meet the clients’ key objective
of maintaining facility operations after the 475 year
return period earthquake. The project, providing
160,000m2 of floor, is currently under construction.
In 1997 we developed a novel design for the
iconic 15 storey Maison Hermes building in central
Tokyo. Inspired by traditional Japanese pagodas
and temples that remain standing after major
earthquakes, columns at one side of the narrow
building are allowed to lift up rather than to develop
tension at the foundation. The uplift is controlled
by visco-elastic dampers. This unique columnbase design reduced very substantially the quantity
of steel in the superstructure and the foundation
requirements. The resulting cost saving was in
excess of one million US dollars.

We have extensive experience and a track record
of innovation in the seismic design of offshore
structures for the energy industry. We are pioneers
in applying 3D non linear dynamic structural and
soil-structure interaction analysis techniques to
enable the most economical and reliable seismic
design of both concrete and steel offshore platforms
and their foundations.
Conventional seismic design of gravity based platforms
attempts to prevent any sliding of the structures
on the seabed during earthquakes. This requires
large quantities of solid ballast placed offshore after
installation. We achieved a multi-million US dollar
saving for the Malampaya oil and gas platform,
installed in the Philippines, by making a performancebased quantified assessment of sliding assuming the
quantity of solid ballast were reduced to that required
for wave loading only.
8
The predicted sliding in the safe shutdown
earthquake was within the acceptable deformation
limits of the sub-sea pipelines connecting to
the platform.
In 2008 we completed the detailed design of the
steel gravity based platform for the Magtymguly field
in the Caspian Sea, offshore Turkmenistan. This
comprises stiffened plated steel skirts, pontoon and
lower legs, with tubular steel upper legs supporting
the topside structure. Nonlinear response history
analysis was employed explicitly modelling nonlinear
soil-structure interaction, interaction with the adjacent
well-head platform, nonlinear buckling of the stiffened
plated legs and material and geometric nonlinearity in
the truss legs and topside.

The seismic performance of safety-critical LNG
tanks and their foundations is a key concern for
public safety and the environment. LNG tanks are
often founded on soft liquefiable estuarine soils
and in recent projects we have been able to
justify more cost-efficient designs by carrying out
performance-based nonlinear soil-pile-structure
interaction analyses. By explicitly analysing the
nonlinear behaviour of soils and piles with the LNG
tanks in a single model, we often find that the
seismic forces on the tank are significantly lower
than would predicted by traditional equivalent linear
methods.
For the Atlantic LNG Terminal project in Trinidad,
this approach resulted in substantial cost savings
in a number of ways:
•
25% reduction in the seismic forces on
the tanks compared with that by the
conventional equivalent linear method
•
Removing the need for expensive site
soil improvement
•
Piles were designed simply for the
gravity load requirement
•
Removing the need for seismic isolators
(which would have been required in
conjunction with soil improvement)
The performance of piles was demonstrated to be
satisfactory in the operating basis and safe shutdown
earthquake events, even if it was assumed that the
loose silty sand deposits suffered liquefaction.

We now routinely carry out 3D nonlinear soil-pilestructure interaction analyses for LNG facilities in
order to justify more economical solutions.

Numerical simulation is widely used in many
applications (e.g. car crashworthiness design) to
reduce the need for expensive and time consuming
multiple physical tests. Arup has developed,
validated and applied numerical ‘virtual testing’
on many seismic design and retrofit projects.
Advanced simulation software can capture all
the features of the behaviour of steel components
and was used to develop an improved design for
steel moment resisting frames by reducing the width
of beam flanges near the column. This prevents weld
fracture and beam flange buckling resulting
in greater assured ductility and sustained strength.
We used both numerical simulation and full scale
tests to obtain approval from the Office of Statewide
Health Planning and Development for the application
of Unbonded Braces™ to hospital projects in
California. This program examined the performance of
both the brace components themselves and of their
connections and interactions with building frames.
The post-buckling behaviour of the braces in the
China Central Television Headquarters building is
critical for the performance of this building. Based
on the confidence obtained from previous validation
studies, numerical virtual testing was employed to
establish the brace post-buckling axial force–axial
deformation relationship and the acceptance limit on
axial shortening, saving considerable time and cost
relative to full scale physical tests. These studies
were accepted by the Chinese Expert Review Panel.

Validation simulations of a number of full scale
laboratory tests of unbonded brace components and

At Esso’s Refinery in Fos-sur-Mer, France we

The original proposal by others required major
strengthening to all the beams and columns with a

performance-based approach, we designed a retrofit
using carbon fibre wrap to one level of beams only,
which was completed in 72 hours. This delivered
substantial savings in material and construction cost
and minimised indirect monetary losses.

Our nonlinear analysis capabilities enable us to
quantify more accurately seismic resistance and
inelastic deformation capacities of existing structures,
thereby minimising (and sometimes eliminating)
structural retrofit costs. We applied these techniques
to the assessment of the performance of noncode compliant truss beam and ‘built up column’
assemblies at an existing industrial building in
Japan. The ability of our simulation software to
replicate cyclic physical tests on back-to-back
double angle struts formed the basis for simulations
of complete truss assemblies, permitting strength
and deformation limits to be established for the
whole building.

In addition to conventional structural analysis
software such as ETABS, SAP2000 and Perform3D,
Arup has utilised the nonlinear dynamic analysis
code LS-DYNA extensively for performance based
seismic analysis since 1985.
LS-DYNA has advantage of an extremely fast explicit
solver running in parallel processing, which makes
practical the analysis of much larger and more
detailed analysis models than any other program
available. In addition, Arup has worked in conjunction
with the authors of LS-DYNA, LSTC, to develop a
large number of new features specifically for seismic
analysis over the past 20 years.

We use LS-DYNA for all major performance-based
analysis tasks including nonlinear analysis of
structures, foundations, soils, fluids, dampers and
isolators - and the dynamic interactions between all
these components.
Representing the performance of reinforced concrete
structures in earthquakes by numerical simulation is
a major challenge due to the inherent complexity of
the material behaviour. Arup has recently developed
new material models for use in shell element
representations of reinforced concrete walls
in LS-DYNA.
The performance of the model was validated by
simulation of shake table tests conducted by NUPEC
in 1994. The test investigates the dynamic response
of a squat (shear governed) shear wall specimen
under imposed base accelerations, at levels of
response ranging from fully elastic to collapse. We
constructed a model of the reinforced concrete shear
wall in LS-DYNA and applied the base accelerations
used in the shake table test.
The performance of the numerical model
was examined by comparing the force versus
displacement response of the top of the wall.
Very good agreement was achieved with that
of the test specimen.
