  • Dynamic response levels are critical for tall and slender civil structures. Studying the dynamic behavior of large civil structures with finite element modeling techniques requires detailed and accurate modeling of structural geometry, material properties, member fixities, connection types, and accompanying assumptions. Still, the finite element model results are approximations that could be away from representing the actual structural behavior. Structures are dynamically tested at their operational conditions to validate the finite element model results. This paper presents Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) and finite element model updating of a tall structure located in the West Bay area of Doha (Qatar). The structure is a reinforced concrete building with shear wall cores situated towards the center of the building plan, which was constructed between 2012 and 2016. With 53 stories above the ground and two stories below ground, the 230 m (755 ft) tall building is being used for residential and hotel purposes. For the finite element model updating and calibration tasks presented in this paper, the authors intentionally introduced drastic model changes for the first two model updates so that the results from the first two attempts guide how to proceed with a more reasonable update for the third calibration of the finite element model. While this is a non-standard technique that represents a specific condition where the initial attempts on the finite element model are very crude approximations, it is a systematized demonstration of how to operate when the structural parameters are sparse or uncertain for modeling purposes. While in theory, the finite element model updates can always be fine-tuned in a way to further decrease the error between the measured and predicted OMA results, in this paper, the authors predominantly focused on the presentation of three finite element model updates to demonstrate the way they have improved the modal assurance criteria plots and lowered the average absolute errors by visiting two drastic and then one moderate finite element model updates. The material presented here in this paper is arguably the first published work on large-scale dynamic testing of a civil structure in the State of Qatar. © 2021 Institution of Structural Engineers
