Numerical and experimental investigation of seismic torsional response of single storey ductile structures

In a structure's response to earthquake motion, the torsional response in combination with lateral motion can induce detrimental damage to its lateral load resisting system. Structural designers of buildings in seismically active areas generally take advantage of the inelastic behaviour of t...
