Soil Structure Interaction Analysis of Two Dimensional Steel Frames under Seismic Loads
Abstract
In this research work, a linear and nonlinear time history analysis for
2D multi-story steel frames on gravel soil with and without soil structure
interactions have been done. Frames have different height start from 3 stories
and up to 20 stories. A substructure method is used to model soil and shallow
(footing) foundation system by linear springs and dashpots. The response
spectrum analysis has also been done. Düzce earthquake accelerograms records
are selected and scaled to specific response spectrum with PGA 0.35 and soil
type B according to Eurocode 8 is considered. Fundamental period and base
shears have been investigated with and without soil-structure interactions; the
results have been presented and compared.
