Analytical Study on the Random Seismic Responses of an Asymmetrical Suspension Structure

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
An asymmetrical suspension structure, without vertical column support and without supplying the flexibility of spatial arrangement, is more sensitive to ground movement. The structural responses of an asymmetrical suspension structure subjected to Clough–
