Seismic response of low-rise buildings

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1986
The results of an investigation into the dynamic response of several low-rise structures are reported. The main parameters studied were the effect of variations in the form of the hysteresis loop exhibited by the inelastic members and of differing types of earthquake accelerograms.
