In this paper, study of the response (base shear, time period, storey drift, storey displacement) of a structure is done for the tall building including basement with fixed base and with pile foundation considering Soil Structure Interaction (SSI). Finite element based program ETABS2016 v16.1.0 is used for the analysis of the superstructure. Seismic analysis is done to get the dynamic response of superstructure for two types of model,one model is with fixed baseand second is Model with Winkler spring for Chhaya Center, Thamel, a high rise building with 14 story including double basements. Itisobserved with the consideration of Soil Structure Interaction (SSI). The soil is replaced by spring and assigned at joints. El Centro earthquake (1940) is used for time history analysis. The response obtained due to SSI effect is compared with fixed based model. Results of analysis presented include the comparison of natural periods, base shears, displacements and overturning moment. It is observed that the natural periods increase and the base shears decrease as the base become more flexible.

Abstract The seismic analysis carried out assuming foundation to be perfectly rigid and bonded to the soil underneath is far from truth and therefore, the soil-structure interaction effect on the dynamic behavior of the bridge pier should be considered. The assessment of soil-structure effect on the design force generated has been estimated using Force based, Capacity Spectrum and Direct Displacement based methods considering fixed and flexible foundations. For this purpose a single cantilever bridge pier of constant diameter with varying heights has been considered for the analysis in different type of soils and earthquake zones. The study has revealed that soil-Structure Interaction index is negative in some cases, especially in soft soil, implying base shear demand being greater than that of fixed base contrary to the traditional views.

Two Alternatives

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.

Ground Motion Records

This study is carried out on a site-specific basis for three locations in Canada, namely Ottawa, Vancouver, and Prince Rupert. Soil models are developed to correspond to the soil classifications used to define the foundation factor, F, in the 1990 edition of the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC). Structural models are developed to represent both 20-storey ductile moment-resisting frames and ductile flexural walls. Three initial sets of actual ground motion records are scaled, in the frequency domain, to represent the postulated bedrock motions for each of the three sites. The computer program FLUSH is used to perform the numerical analyses of the various soil–structure systems. Results from the current study indicate that the code F values generally underestimate the site effects associated with the respective soil deposits, but appear to be reasonably adequate, in most cases, when soil–structure interaction effects are taken into consideration. In spite of some deficiencies in the code F values, the 1990 NBCC design base shear is shown to be quite conservative for regular high-rise reinforced concrete buildings. A simple measure to account for inertial interaction effects in uncoupled analyses is shown to provide a significant improvement, as compared to conventional uncoupled analyses, in the prediction of the coupled base shear demand.

Current seismic design practice assumes the base of the building to be fixed and does not consider the flexibility of foundation and soil. This assumption is realistic only when the structure is founded on solid rock or when the relative stiffness of the foundation soil compared to the superstructure is high. Whereas, in reality due to natural ability of soil to deform, supporting soil medium modifies the response of the structure during earthquake to some extent. In this work the effect of soil structure interaction on seismic response of building resting on different types of foundation was studied. Present work aims to study the effect of soil structure interaction on seismic response of building resting on fixed base, pile foundation, raft foundation and combined pile-raft foundation. G+9 RCC building is analyzed for earthquake loads considered in zone III by response spectrum method and storey displacement and base shear force of building by considering and without considering SSI effect is found out by using MIDAS GEN software.

Abstract: Present days the analysis of structure with seismic design is more popular. because the first priority of the engineer is effective and durable structure. There are two type of base system first is rigid and second is flexible. In case of flexible base structure, only seismic analysis is not give very effective results. In this condition the SSI effect is more significant and give effective results for flexible base system. The term Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) means interaction between soil to the substructure. This effect give more accurate results after consider in the seismic analysis. If a structure is design according to the seismic analysis with SSI effect than structure could get more durability and safety against earthquake as compare to seismic analysis without SSI effect condition. So the SSI effect can change response of the seismic very significantly. The present study aim is based on seismic analysis of building with Soil Structure Interaction effect on two different soil. A frame rectangular building of G+6 storey has analyzed for flexible base simulating sand and clay soil conditions The software is used SAP2000. Raft foundation has been modeled also. Analysis is made with the response spectrum of IS 1893 2016 code. Seismic response of SSI analysis results are compare in terms of lateral storey displacement, base shear and modal behavior of natural time period on different type of soil ( clay and sand). and conclude that the lateral storey displacement, base shear and natural time period values in SSI analysis with sand soil is maximum as compare to clay soil.

Effect of soil-structure interaction (SSI) on seismic response of bridges is not clearly understood, and in general practice, bridge design is carried out ignoring its effect. This is due to the general consensus that fixed base leads to a more conservative design despite the fact that many researchers indicate that ignoring soil-structure interaction may lead to underestimation of seismic response. The current paper aims to investigate the effect of SSI on the nonlinear seismic behavior of 9-span continuous bridge supported on pile foundation penetrating sandy soils. Three types of soils were investigated representing medium to stiff sandy soil. Both pushover analysis and nonlinear time history incremental dynamic analysis are carried out using Opensees to investigate the effect of SSI on the seismic response parameters (namely, fundamental period, pushover curves, foundation rigid body motions, global ductility capacity and demand, and maximum drift ratio) of the bridge and to compare it to fixed base assumption (i.e., SSI ignored). The results indicate that although SSI increases the flexibility of the structure (accordingly increasing fundamental period), the seismic demand of the bridge increases. This increase is more pronounced as the soil becomes softer.
