EFFECT OF SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION ON THE SEISMIC RESPONSE OF AN INSTRUMENTED BUILDING DURING THE CEPHALONIA, GREECE EARTHQUAKE OF 26-1-2014


Abstract eng:
An investigation of SSI effects on the seismic response of the Prefecture building in the island of Lefkas is conducted, based on recordings of an earthquake excitation at its base and at a nearby free-field station. Detailed F.E. models of the building are developed and used as a basis for the development of simpler, yet reliable models for the numerical investigation of SSI effects. Both kinematic and inertial interaction are taken into account, using the substructure approach. The comparison of the predicted response with the actual one recorded at the basement of the building is presented and discussed, as well as the various repercussions due to the potential underestimation of the seismic hazard from recording stations housed at the basement of buildings.
