The closed form equations for equivalent linearization method are presented. In velocity response spectrum constant region, the ductility is function of yielding strength, deformation angle and height structure. But in acceleration structure irrelevant to ductility. And strength It shown that these characteristics essential by discussion based on energy balance stationary random vibration. evaluation probability failure during design lifetime, which examined capacity also equations, utilized above equation. influence variation considered correction coefficient.
