Comments on the
Response Spectrum Analysis Method
As Used in the
CALTRANS SEISMIC DESIGN CRITERIA
Topics
1. Why do most Engineers have Trouble with Dynamics?
Taught by people who love math – No physical examples
2 Who invented the Response Spectrum Method?
Ray Clough and I did ? – by putting it into my computer program
3 Application by CalTrans to “Ordinary Standard Structures”
Why 30 ? Why reference to Transverse & Longitudinal directions
4 Physical behavior of Skew Bridges – Failure Mode
5 Equal Displacement Rule?
6 Quote from George W. Housner
Who Developed the Approximate Response Spectrum Method of
Seismic Analysis of Bridges and other Structures?
1. Fifty years ago there were only digital acceleration records for 3 earthquakes.
2. Building codes gave design spectra for a one degree of freedom systems
with no guidance of how to combine the response of of the higher modes.
3. At the suggestion of Ray Clough, I programmed the square root of the sum of the
square of the modal values for displacements and member forces. However, I
required the user to manually combine the results from the two orthogonal spectra.
Users demanded that I modify my programs to automatically combine the two
directions. I refused because there was no theoretical justification.
4. The user then modify my programs by using the 100%+30% or 100%+40% rules.
5. Starting in 1981 Der Kiureghian and I published papers showing that the CQC
method should be used be used for combining modal responses for each spectrum
and the two orthogonal spectra be combined by the SRSS method.
6. We now have Thousands or of 3D earthquake records from hundred of seismic
events. Therefore, why not use Nonlinear Time-History Analyses that SATISFIES
FORCE EQUILIBREUM.

Seismic Analysis Advice by Ed Wilson
1. All Bridges are Three-Dimensional and their Dynamic Behavior is
governed by the Mass and Stiffness Properties of the structure. The
Longitudinal and Transverse directions are geometric properties. All
Structures have Torsional Modes of Vibrations.
2. The Response Spectrum Analysis Method is a very approximate
method of seismic analysis which only produces positive values of
displacements and member forces which are not in equilibrium.
Demand / Capacity Ratios have Very Large Errors
3. A structural engineer may take several days to prepare and verify a
linear SAP2000 model of an Ordinary Standard Bridge. It would take
less than a day to add Nonlinear Gap Elements to model the joints. If
a family of 3D earthquake motions are specified, the program will
automatically summarize the maximum demand-capacity ratios and
the time they occur in a few minutes of computer time.
Convince Yourself with a simple test problem
1. Select an existing Sap 2000 model of a Ordinary Standard
Bridge with several different spans – both straight and curved.
2. Select one earthquake ground acceleration record to be used as
the input loading which is approximately 20 seconds long.
3. Create a spectrum from the selected earthquake ground
acceleration record.
4. Using a number of modes that captures a least 90 percent of
the mass in all three directions.
5. At a 45 degree angle, Run a Linear Time History Analysis and
a Response Spectrum Analysis.
6. Compare Demand Capacity Ratios for both SAP 2000 analysis
for all members.
7. You decide if the Approximate RSA results are in good
agreement with the Linear time History Results.
Educational Priorities of an Old Professor
on Seismic Analysis of Structures
Convince Engineers that the Response Spectrum Method
Produces very Poor Results
1. Method is only exact for single degree of freedom systems
2. It produces only positive numbers for Displacements and Member
Forces.
3. Results are maximum probable values and occur at an “Unknown
Time”
4. Short and Long Duration earthquakes are treated the same using
“Design Spectra”
5. Demand/Capacity Ratios are always “Over Conservative” for most
Members.
6. The Engineer does not gain insight into the “Dynamic Behavior of
the Structure” Results are not in equilibrium. More modes and 3D
analysis will cause more errors.
7. Nonlinear Spectra Analysis is “Smoke and Mirrors” – Forget it
Convince Engineers that it is easy to conduct
“Linear Dynamic Response Analysis”
It is a simple extension of Static Analysis – just add mass and time
dependent loads
1. Static and Dynamic Equilibrium is satisfied at all points in time if
all modes are included
2. Errors in the results can be estimated automatically if modes are
truncated
3. Time-dependent plots and animation are impressive and fun to
produce
4. Capacity/Demand Ratios are accurate and a function of time –
summarized by program.
5. Engineers can gain great insight into the dynamic response of the
structure and may help in the redesign of the structural system.
Terminology commonly used in nonlinear
analysis that do not have a unique definition
1.Equal Displacement Rule – can you prove it?
2.Pushover Analysis
3.Equivalent Linear Damping
4. Equivalent Static Analysis
5.Nonlinear Spectrum Analysis
6.Onerous Response History Analysis
Equal Displacement Rule
In 1960 Veletsos and Newmark proposed in a
paper presented at the 2nd WCEE
For a one DOF System, subjected to the El Centro
Earthquake, the Maximum Displacement was
approximately the same for both linear and
nonlinear analyses.
In 1965 Clough and Wilson, at the 3rd WCEE,
proved the Equal Displacement Rule did not
apply to multi DOF structures.
http://edwilson.org/History/Pushover.pdf
1965 Professor Clough’s Comment
. “If
tall buildings are designed for elastic
column behavior and restrict the nonlinear
bending behavior to the girders, it appears
the danger of total collapse of the building
is reduced.”
This indicates the strong-column and week
beam design is the one of the first
statements on
Performance Based Design
The Response Spectrum Method
Basic Assumptions
I do not know who first called it a “response spectrum,”
but unfortunate the term leads people to think that the
characterize the building’s motion, rather than the
ground’s motion.
George W. Housner
EERI Oral History, 1996
Typical Earthquake Ground Acceleration – percent of gravity
Integration will produce Earthquake Ground Displacement – inches
These real Eq. Displacement can be used as Computer Input
Relative Displacement Spectrum for
a unit mass with different periods
1. These displacements Ymax are
maximum (+ or -) values versus
period for a structure or mode.
2. Note: we do not know the time
these maximum took place.
Pseudo
Acceleration Spectrum

Note: S = w2 Ymax has the same
properties as the Displacement
Spectrum. Therefore, how can
anyone justify combining values,
which occur at different times, and
expect to obtain accurate results.

As I Recall -------
Demand-Capacity Ratios
The Demand-Capacity ratio for a linear elastic,
compression member is given by an equation of the
following general form:
P( t )
M 2 ( t ) C2
M 3 ( t ) C3
R( t ) 


 1.0
P( t )
P( t )
c Pcr
b M c 2 ( 1 
) b M c 3 ( 1 
)
Pe 2
Pe 3
If the axial force and the two moments are a function of
time, the Demand-Capacity ratio will be a function of time
and a smart computer program will produce R(max) and
the time it occurred.
A smart engineer will hand check several of these values.
RSM Demand-Capacity Ratios
If the axial force and the two moments are produced by the
Response Spectrum Method the Demand-Capacity ratio may
be computed by an equation of the following general form:
P(max)
R(max) 

c Pcr
M 2 (max)C2
M 3 (max)C3

 1.0
P(max)
P(max)

A smart computer program can compute this DemandCapacity Ratio. However, only an idiot would believe it.
SPEED and COST of COMPUTERS
1957 to 2014 to the Cloud
You can now buy a very powerful small
computer for less than $1,000
However, it may cost you several
thousand dollars of your time to learn
how to use all the new options.
If it has a new operating system
1957 My First Computer in Cory Hall
IBM 701 Vacuum Tube Digital Computer
Could solve 40 equations in 30 minutes
1981 My First Computer Assembled at Home
Paid $6000 for a 8 bit CPM Operating System with FORTRAN.
Used it to move programs from the CDC 6400 to the VAX on Campus.
Developed a new program called SAP 80 without using any Statements from previous versions of SAP.
After two years, system became obsolete when IBM released DOS with a floating point chip.
In 1984, CSI developed Graphics and Design Post-Processor and started distribution of the

At the Present Time
Most Laptop Computers
Can be directly connected to a
3D Acceleration Seismic Box
Therefore, Every Earthquake Engineer
C an verify Computed Frequencies
If software has been developed
Final Remark
Geotechnical Engineers must
produce realistic Earthquake records
for use by Structural Engineers
Errors Associated with the use of
Relative Displacements
Compared with the use of real
Physical Earthquake Displacements
Classical Viscous Damping does not exist
In the Real Physical World
