Effect of Subsoil on the Seismic Response of the Setback Buildings
From previous studies, it is observed that due to the effect of the earthquake, irregular buildings fail vulnerably. Further, the effect of soil where the building has been founded also plays an important role in the behaviour of the buildings. Soil–structure interaction (SSI) has been carried out, because conventional fixed-base analysis ignoring the effect of soil flexibility may result in unsafe design. In this present study, behaviour of setback buildings with SSI has been measured experimentally; for this, a five-storey building was considered founded on very soft soil having density 1470 kg/m3 with the help of pile foundation. Buildings, soil and also pile foundation have been scaled down according to suitable scaling laws. The scaled building models are subjected to vibrations at resonant frequencies using shake table facility. Results such as resonant frequency, time period and displacements are presented.
