Abstract
The non-destructive dynamic loading test has been conducted on two seismic resistance of steel structures, reduced beam section (RBS) and eccentric braced frame (EBF). Eccentric mass shaker was used to excite the 1-storey 1-bay steel structure. Two dynamics parameters were obtained which were the natural frequency and the damping ratio. A finite element analysis was performed using OpenSees software to get a comparison result. Similar natural frequency and displacement response were obtained from the test and the FE Analysis. The Natural frequency of RBS and EBF was around 3.614 Hz which is similar to the FE analysis as 3,623 Hz. Meanwhile the damping ratio is 3.149%. The natural frequency of the EBF structure is around 6.0 to 6.13 Hz, while the FE analysis result is 6.13 Hz. The damping ratio from test results is between 2.04 – 2.06%.
