A substructure shaking table test for reproduction of earthquake responses of high-rise buildings.

When subjected to long-period ground motions, high-rise buildings' upper floors undergo large responses. Furniture and nonstructural components are susceptible to significant damage in such events. This paper proposes a full-scale substructure shaking table test to reproduce large floor respons...
