There are currently no applicable hysteresis rules or nonlinear elements available in structural analysis software that can be used to exactly model triple Friction Pendulum bearings for response-history analysis. Series models composed of existing nonlinear elements are proposed since they can be immediately implemented in currently available analysis software. However, the behavior of the triple Friction Pendulum bearing is not exactly that of a series arrangement of single concave Friction Pendulum bearings-though it is similar. This paper describes how to modify the input parameters of the series model in order to precisely retrace the true force-displacement behavior exhibited by this device. Recommendations are made for modeling in SAP2000 and are illustrated through analysis of a simple seismically isolated structure. The results are confirmed by (a) verifying the force-displacement behavior through comparison with experimental data and (b) verifying the analysis through comparison to the results obtained by direct numerical integration of the equations of motion.
