Steel building systems (SBS) are optimized structural systems composed by lightweight tapered steel elements that are fast and easy to build. SBS are a competitive structural typology that have significant non-residential low-rise construction market shares in North America. Currently, SBS are not considered as a pre-qualified seismic force resisting system (SFRS) in Canada (CSA, 2014; NRCC, 2015). Seismic design of the SBS is currently based on engineering experiences and SBS are typically designed using the procedure outlined for conventional constructions in Canada. To overcome this issue, the Canadian Steel Sheet Building Institute (CSSBI) has continuously invested in research to understand the seismic response of SBS. For the past 3 years, CSSBI and researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have worked together to reduce the knowledge gap. Results from the research shows the SBS structural components have some energy dissipation capacities, but the performance of the SBS have variable margin of safety against collapse. This NSERC CRD research grant is targeted to utilize the findings from the previous NSERC CRD research to simulate the nonlinear dynamic response of the SBS under seismic loads. In particular, a large range of archetypes will be designed and analyzed using the state-of-the-art finite element models and the seismic performance assessment framework developed in the previous NSERC CRD research. Upon successful completion of the research, robust seismic design guidelines for SBS will be developed for constructions in Canada. This will result to safer and more reliable SBS to be used in Canada and worldwide.

钢结构建筑系统 (SBS) 是由轻质锥形钢元件组成的优化结构系统，可快速且易于建造。 SBS 是一种具有竞争力的结构类型，在北美非住宅低层建筑市场占有重要份额。目前，SBS 在加拿大不被视为预审合格的抗震系统 (SFRS)（CSA，2014 年；NRCC，2015 年）。 SBS 的抗震设计目前基于工程经验，并且通常使用加拿大传统建筑概述的程序进行设计。为了解决这个问题，加拿大钢板建筑研究所 (CSSBI) 不断投入研究，以了解 SBS 的地震响应。在过去的三年里，CSSBI 和不列颠哥伦比亚大学 (UBC) 的研究人员共同努力缩小知识差距。研究结果表明，SBS结构构件具有一定的耗能能力，但SBS的性能具有可变的抗倒塌安全边际。 NSERC CRD 研究资助的目的是利用先前 NSERC CRD 研究的结果来模拟 SBS 在地震载荷下的非线性动态响应。特别是，将使用最先进的有限元模型和先前 NSERC CRD 研究中开发的抗震性能评估框架来设计和分析大量原型。研究成功完成后，将为加拿大的建筑制定可靠的 SBS 抗震设计指南。这将使加拿大和全世界使用更安全、更可靠的 SBS。
