FHA Study of Seismic Design Criteria for High-Rise Buildings
The report describes the results of a program of study and research into the earthquake behavior of high-rise buildings. The techniques and standards for the earthquake resistant design of traditional types of buildings are reviewed briefly. A digital computer investigation into the response of various high-rise structural systems was undertaken to extend the understanding of their response to seismic excitation, thus enabling the development of new design criteria which will maintain adequate factors of safety in new types of constructions. An investigation into the structural performance of three buildings in Anchorage during the March 27, 1964 earthquake was carried out. Finally, recommendations for seismic design criteria are specified. (Author)
