Effect of foundation compliance on the earthquake stresses in typical tall buildings

This paper shows the quantitative effect that foundation compliance has on the maximum base shear force, the maximum base moment, and the fundamental period of vibration in typical tall buildings subjected to strong-motion earthquakes. A study is made of 5, 10, and 15 story building models on the El...
