Case studies of damage to 19-storey irregular steel moment-frame buildings under near-source ground motion.

This paper describes the three-dimensional nonlinear analysis of six 19-storey steel moment-frame buildings, designed per the 1997 Uniform Building Code, under strong ground motion records from near-source earthquakes with magnitudes in the range of 6.7?7.3. Three of these buildings possess a reentr...
