Abstract

AbstractThis paper presents the interaction mechanism of a 12-story building sitting on a piled raft foundation with a strike-slip fault rupture. The mechanical response of foundation including both structural and geotechnical response of the foundation are evaluated through three-dimensional numerical modelling using ABAQUS. The obtained results showed that the raft significantly suffers from rotation about the vertical axpipelinis and horizontal displacement. Both bending moment and shear forces in piles due to fault rupture exceeded the capacity values of piles. The maximum bending moment and shear forces within piles took place at the connection of piles to the raft and exceeded allowable values when the fault slipped more than 0.3 m.KeywordsStrike-slip fault rupturePiled raft foundationABAQUS
