In this work, the modelling of the wind impact on the standard tall building of CAARC (Commonwealth Advisory Aeronautical Council), which is placed on a surface spread footing, is done numerically utilizing the ABAQUS program. The wind is demonstrated as an exponential way in the boundary layer of the atmosphere. Then, stream turbulence is modeled by the ILES technique and a cosimulation is accepted to exchange non-uniform loads from fluid to structural nodes. Damping of the structure is controlled by the Rayleigh strategy. Mechanical reaction of the footing-soil framework is modeled utilizing direct strategy. Infinite boundary conditions have been added to the numerical model for the simulation of free boundaries, and reasonable contact elements for sliding and separating between subsurface components are considered. Finally, fluid solutions and structural reactions are compared with the mean and root mean squares of experimental estimations on an extensive range of reduced speeds. Numerical results for the framework of soil-structure systems were compared with base conditions without association of soil-structure interaction. It is concluded that dynamic properties and reactions of the building influence soil-structure interaction and accordingly the planners should consider these parameters keeping in mind to guarantee the practical designing.

An evaluation of the response of a fourteen story reinforced concrete building to the 1 October 1987 Whittier earthquake and 4 October 1987 aftershock shows significant effects of soil-structure interaction. A mathematical model of the building-foundation-soil system provides response quantities not directly available from the records. The model is calibrated using the dynamic properties of the building as determined from the processed strong motion records. Soil-structure interaction reduces the base shear force in the longitudinal direction of the building compared with the typical assumption in which interaction is neglected. The reduction in base shear for this building and earthquake is approximately represented by proposed building code provisions for soil-structure interaction.

This paper deals with static and dynamic analysis of asymmetric high-rise building. Two alternatives have been analysed – without dilatation and with dilatation. Then, the influence of the dilatation was discussed. The building was located in 4th seismic area in Slovakia (Bratislava). The description of the building, applied load, considered soil-structure interaction, created calculating models, used analysis and obtained results are mentioned here. The conclusions and the photos of defective repairs of real structures are depicted at the end of the paper.

In the present study, a large-scale seismic response analysis of a super-high-rise steel frame considering the soil–structure interaction is conducted. A high-fidelity mesh of a 31-story super-high-rise steel frame and the ground underneath it, which is made completely of hexahedral elements, is generated. The boundary conditions that are consistent with the solution of the one-dimensional (1D) wave propagation analysis are imposed on the side and bottom surfaces of the ground. The waves are assumed to propagate in the vertical direction. The 1D wave propagation analysis is conducted under the excitation of the JR Takatori record of the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu earthquake. The parallel large-scale analysis is performed using the K computer, which is one of the fastest supercomputers in the world. The results of the models with and without the ground are compared, which reveals that the results obtained by these two models are very similar because the ground is assumed be sufficiently hard in the present study.
