Abstract:
Pushover analysis has become an effective tool for seismic design of medium and highrise buildings under dynamic loads and severe earthquakes. However, in order to apply a
traditional pushover analysis can be difficult for complicated steel structures such as large
span structures. In this research, pushover analysis was adopted to evaluate the dynamic
behavior of some steel truss structures under severe dynamic loads and earthquakes.
Results and discussions are presented for some case studies of previous collapsed steel
truss and long span bridges. Pushover curves will be obtained by nonlinear static analysis.
The maximum displacements and plastic hinge positions will be located by pushover
analysis, the main objective of this master research thesis is to review previous failure
mechanisms of previous steel trusses structures/bridges, moreover check the possibility of
assessing steel truss structures using pushover analysis using parametric study in order to
check some important structural aspects.
