Pushover Analysis Method in Earthquake Engineering

Gong Shu-hui

Abstract

Pushover analysis is a simplified method for structure seismic evaluation,which is extensively used,and is recommended by the new national code of seismic design of buildings.The paper presents a concise introduction to the principle and several important problems of pushover analysis.In the end,comparison between nonlinear time history analysis and pushover analysis using three lateral load patterns is undertaken.
