Abstract: Abstract Seismic pounding between adjoining buildings frequently causes serious damage; although collision can be avoided with proper separation, can still occur due to code non-fulfillment, loose requirements of old codes, and seismicity underestimation. Inside this… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract This paper presents a parametrical study on seismic pounding between pairs of RC frames with 3 and 5 stories and aligned slabs. The performance indices are the maximum inter-story drift, absolute acceleration, and story… read more here.
