,Introduction
The assumptions that say, the building design is most often perfo
based on fixed base (rigid) are not strictly true but are often consid
to be acceptable and conservative.
The flexibility of the foundation system, including both the founda
structural components and the supporting soil, can have a signi
effect on the building’s dynamic properties and its overall response.
After the San Fernando earthquake in 1971, most countries st
considering the effects of soil-structure interaction (SSI) for exte
research.
, Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)
According to Mylonakis and Gazetas study, the main reason fo
collapse of the Hanshin Expressway in the 1995 Kobe earthquake i
to the negligence of SSI effect.
«The SSI became a part of the performance-based evaluation in r
studies, particularly in retrofitting existing structures.»
What is Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)?
During earthquakes, the response of the soil influences the motion o
structure, and motion of the structure influences the response of the
This procedure is termed as SSI.
