Abstract

Buildings constructed on hill slopes are highly unsymmetrical in nature. The buildings situated on hill slopes are generally irregular, torsionally coupled, and hence susceptible to severe damage when affected by earthquake ground motion. In this paper, a 21-storeyed RC framed building resting on sloping ground is studied. Seismic response of the high-rise building is carried out using linear static analysis and linear dynamic analysis (response spectrum analysis). This paper also compared the behavior of RC framed building resting on plain ground and resting on sloping ground including the effect of infill wall stiffness.
