Analysis of Different Seismic Response between Low and High Stories of Buildings

Article Preview

Abstract:

In general, the higher story of the building, the stronger effects on humans and objects. In this paper, seismic response analysis for two buildings is carried out. The time histories of displacement, velocity, acceleration and acceleration response spectrum of each floor are obtained. By analyzing these results, the phenomenon of "the higher story of the building, the stronger effects on humans and objects" is demonstrated. And reasons of this phenomenon are preliminary analyzed.
