Abstract [en]
This paper presents Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) and Finite Element (FE) model updating of a tall structure. Located in the West Bay area of Doha (Qatar), the structure was constructed between 2012 and 2016. It is a reinforced concrete building with shear wall cores located towards the center of the building plan. With 53 stories above the ground and 2 stories below ground, the 230 m (755 ft) tall building is being used for residential and hotel purposes. The material presented here is arguably the first published work on large-scale dynamic testing of a civil structure in Qatar. The wireless sensors used for testing are state-of-the-art equipment that can capture very low frequencies, something that cannot be accomplished with most of the conventional accelerometers available in the market. © 2022, The Society for Experimental Mechanics, Inc.
