Abstract

This paper investigates the response interaction between reinforced concrete substructure and steel raised lattice roofing. The viewpoint of dynamic stability and nonlinear seismic behavior are considered as both geometrical and material nonlinearity. In particularly, dynamic stability performance of single layer Diamatic domes located on peripheral reinforced concrete columns is investigated under vertical loads and seismic excitation. Different supporting structures with rigidity and reinforcement detailing of the circular peripheral columns are considered in the integrated design. The vibration modes for the lattice dome with and without substructure effects are studied. Results show that high capacity substructure or fixed supporting assumption may lead to unsafe stability performance as well as uneconomical designs. The integrated design of composite system, RC supporting substructure and upper lattice roof could be provided superior dynamic stability performance when compared to the design without supporting substructure.
