    1) The document discusses inelastic behavior and response of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems using the equal displacement principle (EPP) model. 2) It presents constant ductility spectra for El Centro ground motion with 5% damping, showing that the strength reduction factor Ry depends on the period of the structure. 3) Ry is equal to 1 for short periods less than Ta, equal to the ductility factor μ for long periods greater than Tc, and varies linearly between μ and 1 for intermediate periods between Ta and Tc, where Ta = 0.06 sec and Tc = 0.6 sec.

    EXAMPLE

    Consider the single story frame shown below.  Assume the natural period of 
    vibration of the system  T = 0.2 sec. Determine the lateral force and lateral 
    displacement for which the frame should be designed if:
    (a) The system is to remain elastic
    (b) The system has a ductility  = 4
    The design earthquake is given by 
    the spectrum shown in the figure
