Seismic Pounding Effect in Framed Structures
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Pounding between adjacent structures is commonly observed phenomenon during major earthquakes which may cause both architectural and structural damages. To satisfy the functional requirements, the adjacent buildings are constructed with equal and unequal heights, which may cause great damage to structures during earthquakes. To mitigate the amount of damage from pounding, the most simplest and effective way is to provide minimum separation distance. To study the effect of structural pounding, a case study has been done on different setback ratios (Area & Height) and to investigate the minimum seismic pounding gap between two adjacent structures by using GAP joint element & non- linear time history analysis.
