Seismic Response Evaluation of Super High-Rise Rc Buildings in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area to Pulse-Like Ground Motions Amplified in Subsurface Structure
Abstract:This paper describes the effects of subsurface structure on ground motions and nonlinear responses of super high-rise RC buildings to pulse-like ground motions using subsurface structure models from the seismic bedrock to the ground surface in the Tokyo Metropolitan area. Amplification of pulse-like ground motions and relatively large story drift of upper buildings are remarkably seen in the area between Sumida and Edo Rivers.The shallow part of subsurface structure is dominant for the ground motion amplificat… Show more
