What is Ground Motion Effects on Building Response about?

This study examines how the direction of bi-directional near-fault ground motions impacts the response of nonlinear 3D computer models of multi-story buildings. It analyzes two approaches required by building codes: 1) Rotating ground motions to the fault-normal and fault-parallel directions, assuming this will envelope structural responses. 2) Using maximum-direction ground motions, which assume peak response aligns with peak shaking. It aims to evaluate these approaches by investigating how engineering de
