Description:
In my NHERI REU experience, I participated in a study that produced experimental data on the behavior of steel collector beams under seismic loads. The experimental specimen consisted of a half-scale steel-framed structure with a composite steel-concrete diaphragm. The specimen was tested using UC San Diego's Large High Performance Outdoor Shake Table. Specifically, I developed and calibrated a computer model of the test specimen using the structural analysis software PISA3D. The model reproduced input parameters related to the seismic response prediction of the test specimen within 5% of experimental values.
