Assessing the Impact of Soil-Structure Interaction on Seismic Performance of Step Back and Set Back Buildings on Sloping Ground
Abstract: When constructing framed structures on sloping ground, either step back or step back and set back configurations are typically adopted. Due to the varying heights of columns towards the slope and the unsymmetrical nature of these buildings, they are subject to large forces such as shear forces, bending moments, torsional moments, and unequal distribution. In the past, it was common practice to assume that structures were fixed at the base, …
