Evaluation of Code Accidental-Torsion Provisions Using Earthquake Records from Three Nominally Symmetric-Plan Buildings
A procedure is presented for evaluating building code provisions for accidental torsion from analysis of earthquake-induced motions of nominally-symmetric-plan buildings. The procedure is used to analyze the motions of three buildings recorded during recent California earthquakes. The results demonstrate that the accidental torsional moments specified by the Uniform Building Code are more than sufficient in representing the torsion in the recorded motions of these three buildings, a conclusion that should be applicable to almost all buildings with nominally-symmetric plan.
