Dynamic behavior of steel frame and truss buildings
Report describes experimental and analytical studies of dynamic behavior of East Building of University of California's new Medical Center at San Francisco, Calif; vibrations were produced by eccentric-mass-type vibration generators; frequency responses, time responses, and mode shapes were observed; tests showed that although East Building was designed as free-standing, it was dynamically coupled to its adjacent buildings; relatively large damping capacity of coupled system was attributed to Coulomb damping provided by nonstructural connections between buildings.
