ModelM1M2M3Table 1. Description <strong>of</strong> mathematical modelsDescriptionBaseline model <strong>of</strong> 1970s in-situ building; designed for thestrength and drift limits <strong>of</strong> the 1970 Uniform Building Code;best-estimate model for non-moment-resisting connections.Similar to M1 except rigid connections used for non-momentresistingconnections.Similar to M1 except pinned connections used for non-momentresistingconnections.T11(secs)0.700.680.71M4 1960s variant <strong>of</strong> M1: design drift limits <strong>of</strong> M1 not imposed. 1.74M5M6M7M8M9M10M11Similar to M4 except rigid connections used for non-momentresistingconnections.Similar to M4 except pinned connections used for non-momentresistingconnections.M6 augmented with buckling restrained braces (BRBs) to provideapproximately a 300% increase in lateral stiffness. BRBsinstalled in paired diagonal braces in the exterior bays on gridlines B and H.M6 equipped with fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) to provideapproximately 25% <strong>of</strong> critical damping in the first mode. FVDsinstalled in paired diagonal braces in the exterior bays on gridlines B and H.M6 equipped with fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) to provideapproximately 40% <strong>of</strong> critical damping in the first mode. FVDsinstalled in paired diagonal braces in the exterior bays on gridlines B and H.M3 equipped with viscoelastic seismic isolation bearings;isolated period is 2.5 seconds; approximately 10% <strong>of</strong> criticaldamping in the first mode.M3 equipped with viscoelastic seismic isolation bearings;isolated period is 2.5 seconds; approximately 20% <strong>of</strong> criticaldamping in the first mode.1.581.810.971.811.812.602.60117
