A Critical Review on Design Philosophies of Different Design Standards on Seismic Soil–Structure Interaction

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Seismic Design and Performance

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering ((LNCE,volume 120))

Abstract

Layout of philosophies of design standard plays an important role on the satisfactory long-term performance of the structure. Seismic soil–structure interaction (SSSI) is an important aspect, which determines the seismic response of the structure during any seismic disturbance. Various design codes around the world follow different approaches to incorporate the effects of SSSI on the design. This paper provides a critical review of the current design standard dealing with SSSI. The practicing provisions regarding the SSSI of different standards cover a wide range of structures supported over different soil types. Importance of SSSI, different criteria, design philosophies, nature of structure and soil conditions, etc., is systematically reported here. Areas of importance of different design standards regarding the SSSI for different types of soil and structure have been listed in detail. This paper may be useful for practicing professionals/engineers to identify various important provisions of different design standards regarding SSSI.
