Inelastic response of torsionally unbalanced multistorey shearwall buildings designed using elastic static and dynamic analyses

Damage to buildings during recent earthquakes caused by increased torsional response supports the need to improve upon the existing building code design guidelines through developing a better understanding of the response of asymmetric buildings with the intent to restrict the construction of tor...
