Abstract

Abstract: According to several studies on past earthquakes, Dynamic loading influences the seismic reaction of buildings. Sudden distress and failures in structures have been seen as a result of soil-structure interaction. Soil-structure interaction increases shear stresses in the structure's bottom storeys, making it less rigid and increasing lateral displacements such as storey drift, inter-storey drift, and roof displacements. Increased lateral displacements in high-rise buildings cause occupant discomfort. The interaction between soil and structure lengthens the building's natural time period. Three modelling approaches, fix foundation building, medium stiff base building, and low stiff base building, have been investigated and analysed using SAP2000 V14, taking into account soil-structure interaction (SSI). The results can be used to build a detailed performance-based seismic design approach that considers the influence of soil structure interaction.
