This command is used to construct a limit surface that defines the ultimate deformation between two nodes and/or the ultimate force that trigger lateral-strength degradation in the Pinching Limit State Material. The curve can be used in two modes: 1) direct input mode, where all parameters are input; and 2) calibrated mode for shear-critical concrete columns, where only key column properties are input for model to fully define pinching and damage parameters. Note: when both strength and rotation limits are used. Lateral-strength degradation is triggered in the material model when the first limit is reached.


MODE 1: Direct Input

limitCurve RotationShearCurve $crvTag $eleTag $ndI $ndJ $rotAxis $Vn $Vr $Kdeg $rotLim

$crvTag unique limit curve object integer tag
$eleTag integer element tag to define the associated beam-column element used to extract axial load
$ndI integer node tag to define the node at the extreme end of the frame member bounding the plastic hinge (L1 or D1 for bottom spring and L4 or D6 for top spring in Figure)
$ndJ integer node tag to define the node bounding the plastic hinge (L2 or D3 for bottom spring and L3 or D4 for top spring in Figure)
$rotAxis integer to indicate axis of measured rotation when triggering lateral-strength degradation
rotAxis = 3 – Rotation about z-axis – 2D

rotAxis = 4 – Rotation about x-axis – 3D

rotAxis = 5 – Rotation about y-axis – 3D

rotAxis = 6 – Rotation about z-axis – 3D

$Vn floating point value to define the ultimate strength in material model
Vn = -1 – strength limit is not used.

Vn > 0 – strength limit is the input value

$Vr floating point value to define the backbone residual strength
Vr = -1 – Residual strength = 0.2*(max. force in material model at initiation of degradation)

-1 < Vr < 0 – Residual shear strength = Vr*(max. force in material model at initiation of degradation)

Vr > 0 – Residual strength is the input value

$Kdeg floating point value to define the backbone degrading slope of the material model.
Note: the degrading slope must be less than zero.
$rotLim floating point value to limit the rotational capacity across the plastic hinge (difference between $ndI and $ndJ in absolute value). When this value (radians) is exceeded during the analysis degrading behavior is triggered in the material model.

MODE 2: Calibrated Model for Shear-Critical Concrete Columns

limitCurve RotationShearCurve $crvTag $eleTag $ndI $ndJ $rotAxis $Vn $Vr $Kdeg $defType $b $d $h $L $st $As $Acc $ld $db $rhot $f'c $fy $fyt $delta

$crvTag unique limit curve object integer tag
$eleTag integer element tag to define the associated beam-column element used to extract axial load
$ndI integer node tag to define the node at one end of the region for which limiting rotations are defined (see $defType)
$ndJ integer node tag to define the node at the other end of the region for which limiting rotations are defined (see $defType)
$rotAxis integer to indicate axis of measured rotation when triggering lateral-strength degradation.
rotAxis = 3 – Rotation about z-axis – 2D

rotAxis = 4 – Rotation about x-axis – 3D

rotAxis = 5 – Rotation about y-axis – 3D

rotAxis = 6 – Rotation about z-axis – 3D

$Vn floating point value to define the nominal shear strength
Vn = -1 – Shear strength limit is not used

Vn = 0 – Shear strength limit is calculated using ASCE 41-06 Eq. 6-4

Vn > 0 – Shear strength limit is the input value

Note: Shear capacity calculated according to ASCE 41 only gives the capacity with the k factor equal to 1 (i.e., shear capacity at small deformations)

$Vr floating point value to define the backbone residual shear strength
Vr = -1 – Residual shear strength = 0.2*( max. force in material model at initiation of degradation)

-1 < Vr < 0 – Residual shear strength = Vr*( max. force in material model at initiation of degradation)

Vr > 0 – Residual shear strength is the input value

$Kdeg floating point value to define the backbone degrading slope.
Kdeg = 0 – Degrading slope calculated by calibrated regression model.

Kdeg < 0 – Degrading slope is the input value

$defType integer flag to define which rotation-based shear failure model is used

1 – Flexure-Shear capacity based on θ_f rotation capacity (Eq. 4.4; Leborgne 2012)

	For this case select $ndI=D1 or L1 and $ndJ=D3 or L2 for the bottom spring in Fig. 1

2 – Flexure-Shear capacity based on θ_total rotation capacity (Ghannoum and Moehle 2012)

	For this case select $ndI=D1 or L1 and $ndJ=D3 or L2 for the bottom spring in Fig. 1

3 – Flexure-Shear capacity based on θflexural rotation capacity (Ghannoum and Moehle 2012)

	For this case select $ndI=D2 and $ndJ=D3 for the bottom spring in Fig. 1

4 – Flexure-Shear capacity based on θ_total-plastic rotation capacity (Ghannoum and Moehle 2012)

	For this case select $ndI=L1 and $ndJ=L2 for the bottom spring in Fig. 1

5 – Flexure-Shear capacity based on θ_flexural-plastic rotation capacity (Ghannoum and Moehle 2012)

	This is a special case not shown in Fig. 1 where column flexural plastic deformations are simulated separately from bar-slip induced plastic rotations in a lumped-plasticity model
$b floating point column width (inches)
$d floating point column depth (inches)
$h floating point column height (inches)
$L floating point column clear span length (inches)
$st floating point transverse reinforcement spacing (inches) along column height
$As floating point total area (inches squared) of longitudinal steel bars in section
$Acc floating point gross confined concrete area (inches squared) bounded by the transverse reinforcement in column section
$ld floating point development length (inches) of longitudinal bars using ACI 318-11 Eq. 12-1 and Eq. 12-2
$db floating point diameter (inches) of longitudinal bars in column section
$rhot floating point transverse reinforcement ratio (Ast/st.db)
$f'c floating point concrete compressive strength (ksi)
$fy floating point longitudinal steel yield strength (ksi)
$fyt floating point transverse steel yield strength (ksi)
$delta floating point offset (radians) added to shear failure models to adjust shear failure location.
Note: This value should remain at zero to use the model as per calibration
