Abstract

Abstract

Using five-story shear models, the inelastic torsional coupled response of eccentric buildings to different earthquake intensity was studied. Results show that the torsional couple degree is closely related to the strength distribution of the resisting elements. Generally, the building designed by spectral modal analysis method has a tendency to move translationally as the earthquake intensity increases. The building designed by proportion rigidity method will rotate heavily to moderate earthquake, but when it is intensively excited into the inelastic phase, the coupling would decrease slightly, but could not be neglected.
