Abstract
The seismic response of a large wastewater collector box-type is performed by spectral analysis and direct time integration methods. The influence of mechanical characteristics of surrounding soil on structure seismic response is investigated. For this purpose the soil bulk modulus was successively considered 40,000 kPa and 80,000 kPa. The study points out the kinematic interaction soil-buried structure is usually more important than inertial interaction. Over wastewater collector is placed a river channel with 2.30 m deep water. The analysis shown the water from river channel led to significant increase in structure sectional stresses during seismic action.
