On August 9, 2017, a strong earthquake with a magnitude Mw = 6.3 occurred in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China. For the first time in the last 10 years, representative instrumental data were obtained at the seismic station No. 11 (“Prospect Abay”) in the city of Almaty, equipped with a digital instrumentation and measuring system. The building is eleven-story and is made in a steel frame. In the city of Almaty, there is a significant number of residential and public buildings made in a steel frame. Using the AT 1105 sensors and the RSM-8 recorder, high-quality instrumental records of accelerations in the basement and on the roof of the building were obtained, as well as the β spectral curves. The frequency composition of the impact at the basement level has been determined. The prevailing period of fluctuation at the basement level is 0.3 sec, and at the roof level is close to 1.3 sec. It was found that during a remote earthquake, resonant vibrations of the building took place. The results of the work can be used in the design of buildings with a steel frame in the city of Almaty.
