Dynamic Analysis of High Building with Cracks in Column Subjected to Earthquake Loading

Abstract

This paper is devoted to studying the dynamic response of a high building on an elastic foundation with cracks on the column of the building under earthquake loading using the finite element method (FEM). The authors used a 3D modeling frame -plate system and integration method developed by Newmark, along with construction calculation programs in the Matlab environment to analyze the problem. The results were reflected the effect of the cracks on the columns and other parameters.
