Abstract:Pounding between buildings that are not sufficiently separated has been observed several times during earthquakes. This destructive impact may severely damage the structure and lead to its collapse. Although it is impossible to completely eliminate such losses, measures can be taken to minimize them. This article investigates the effect of the variability of structural parameters, soil parameters, and seismic action on the seismic response of two colliding buildings, taking the soil-structure interaction (SSI)… Show more
