Effects of Foundation Configuration Variation on Seismic Response of Moment-Frame Buildings
The earthquake engineering community has made significant progress in developing design-oriented finite element methods that can systematically simulate nonlinear foundation-building behavior. This paper presents a parametric investigation using one such widely used method, namely the Beam-on-Nonlinear-Winkler-Foundation (BNWF) model. The focus herein is on characterizing the effects of foundation configuration variation on seismic response of moment-frame buildings. For this purpose, a large suite of nonlinear time history analyses are conducted, adopting the incremental dynamic analysis approach, while evaluating the resulting engineering demand parameters. The paper concludes with findings regarding the effects of varying basementmat levels on several key engineering demand parameters.
