In this study, the RC moment-resisting frame (MRF) systems designed under gravity and wind loading have been evaluated by utilising 3D FE modelling incorporating eigen-analysis to obtain the elastic periods of vibration.

The results show that the maximum inelastic deformations occur for the ground motions for which the elastic fundamental period of the bridge is close to one half of the period of the predominant pulse.

It was found to be a function of the elastic fundamental period and modal shape of the frame and consequently named the modal-elastic stability coefficient (θme).

In spite of its inelastic domain, this coefficient was found to retain a strong correlation with the elastic fundamental period and modal shape of the frame and consequently named the the modal-inelastic stability coefficient (θmi).

Although the initial step of design using this approach is also calculation of stiffness, elastic time period and different strengths of the structure, it is quite different from the traditional methods as includes direct control of displacements instead of indirect control using ductility coefficients.
