MethodologyMethodology Developed in 1997 (Shome, N., Cornell, C. A.,
Bazzurro, P., and Carballo, J. (1998), “Earthquake, Records, and Nonlinear MDOF Responses”, Earthquake Spectra ).
Verified based on the results of nonlinear time-history analysis of a 5-story structure and a 20-story structure.
Worked quite well for single-frequency-dominated structures, but tall multi-frequency dominated structures showed some dependency on higher- mode spectral accelerations (or shape of spectrum). Sa(T1) scaling introduced some bias for tall structures.

ProcedureProcedure
Randomly select small number of records from a specified M-R bin of records.
Scale the selected records to the target Sa(T1) before nonlinear time-history analysis.

VerificationVerification
Nonlinear analysis results for a 5-story and a 20-story steel MRF were used for the verification of the methodology.
Results from the Strength-Reduced 5-Story Structure Results are available in term of maximum interstory
ductility (i.e., ratio of max story drift and yield displacement of that story, ). The interstory drift percentages are in general 0.8 to 1 .1 times ductility.
Results from unscaled records are compared with the results from the records scaled to the median Sa(T1) of a M-R bin of 20 records.

Scaling the records to the median Sa(T1) of the bin of records does not introduce any bias.

No strength reduction of the structure was employed. All the records in Bin-I and Bin-II were scaled first by a constant factor.

LimitationsLimitations Scaling of records to a target Sa(T1) introduces bias in the
response of tall multi-frequency dominated structures. Cornell and co-workers introduced vector-based demand
hazard calculations from the results of drift|Sa(T1),Sa(T2).
The Sa(T1)-scaling does work well with the near-source records. Luco and Cornell introduced an improved IM instead of Sa(T1) which can be used for ordinary as well as near-source records to improve the results.
Baker and Cornell introduced a vector-valued ground motion intensity measure consisting of spectral acceleration and epsilon. If the records are selected for nonlinear structural analysis based on the epsilon of the record, the bias in the results can be reduced significantly.

Cumulative Distribution Function Cumulative Distribution Function Distribution is assumed to be lognormal.

1 is the slope of the MIDR curve (MIDR = 0.(Sa)1). Typical values of 1 are 0.85 for low-rise buildings, 1.0 for mid-rise buildings and 1.15 for high-rise buildings.
Sa|M,R is the dispersion of Sa for the given event. This can be obtained from the attenuation functions.
For the strength-reduced 5-story structure:
Compare the = 0.62 for the unscaled records. Note 20 records have been used for the unscaled as well as scaled records.
