Peak Sliding Displacements of Sliding Base Structures Under Earthquake Excitation
To ensure the safety of sliding base (SB) structures, the peak sliding displacement (PSD) should not exceed the predetermined sliding displacement threshold. Therefore, the PSD is an important response quantity that should be evaluated in design. In this chapter, the probability distribution of the PSD at a given level of ground motion intensity, and the influence of the vertical earthquake component and various structural and ground motion characteristics on the PSD are investigated. Simplified equations for estimating the PSD are also developed for design purposes.
