Probabilistic Seismic Demand Analysis of RC Shear Walls Considering Soil-Structure Interaction Effects
Reinforced concrete shear walls are often used to resist the lateral loads imposed by earthquakes. This paper presents the probabilistic seismic demand analysis of typical shear walls with flexible foundations to evaluate the significance of soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects. Utilizing the realistic numerical models for shear wall and foundation elements, the nonlinear time history analyses are conducted with a large number of recorded ground motions. Response quantities in terms of drift ratio and base shear are monitored and related to the intensity measure of ground motions for the cases with and without considering the SSI effects. The fragility functions of shear walls are derived and the impact of SSI effects is discussed.
