multi-story structures. In the latter case, h* can often be well-approximated as 70% of the total

5. PUSHOVER ANALYSIS OF BUILDING
After designing and detailing the reinforced concrete frame structures, a nonlinear pushover analysis is
carried out for evaluating the structural seismic response. The pushover analysis consists of the
application of gravity loads and a representative lateral load pattern based on ASCE41. The lateral
loads were applied monotonically in a step-by-step nonlinear static analysis. The applied lateral loads
were accelerations in the x and y direction representing the forces that would be experienced by the

may yield sequentially. Target displacement of buildings calculated based on ASCE41. Table 6 lists

5.1. Dynamic properties of buildings
Fundamental period of the building is the best parameter that determines dynamic properties of the
buildings. Fig. 13 shows the ratio of fundamental period of buildings with flexible-base to fixed-base.
It shows that fundamental period of the flexible-base structures is longer than fixed-base structures; it
may be up to 16 percent; its because of foundation flexibility in models.
5.2. Drift of stories
Drift of stories is one of the important factors that must be regarded in designing framed structures.
Fig. 14 shows the ratio of drift of stories of 6 story building with soil structure interaction to without it.
It shows that drift of the flexible-base structures is longer than fixed-base structures.
5.3. Capacity curve
The two resulting capacity curves for 1 and 6 story buildings are shown in Figures 15 and 16. The
two curves show similar features. They are initially linear but start to deviate from linearity as the
beams and the columns undergo inelastic actions. The linear part of the curves indicates stiffness
of the buildings and final position of the curves indicates target displacement of the buildings.

structure interaction to without soil structure interaction

5.4. Component evaluation parameters
Component evaluation in nonlinear static analysis is the most important part of the evaluation of the
building. Plastic hinges positions in behavior curve of the component show seismic performance of
them. The ratio of the number of components with soil structure interaction to without it show in
figures 17 to 22.

6. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
The seismic performance of buildings with multiple stories was investigated. One, three and six story
3D moment-resisting frame concrete buildings stories have been examined. The buildings were
assumed to be founded on shallow foundations. Tehran seismic area has been considered for this
study. The dynamic analysis was conducted using the nonlinear structural analysis software SAP
2000. The results indicate that the SSI can considerably affect the seismic response of surface
buildings as well as buildings founded on soft soil conditions. In general, the results showed that SSI
effects are important for buildings founded on soft ground conditions.
This study showed fundamental period of the flexible-base structures is longer than fixed-base structures
as well as effective damping which is higher for the soil-structure system than for the structure alone.
Total displacements of the structure are larger in flexibly based structure and can be quite important
for pounding of buildings; on the hand, drifts and damage to structural components are smaller than
those of fixed-base structures.
The deformations of the structural components of the buildings have also been affected by the SSI.
The deformations of buildings with flexible bases have shown a considerable increase that ranged
from 30 to 160 compared to the fixed base case for buildings founded on soil type V. This would in
turn increase the lateral deflection of the whole building. Thus, SSI can have a detrimental effect on
the performance of buildings.
