Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Soft-Storey Structure: Insights from Nonlinear Pushover Analysis
Platform A Journal of EngineeringBuildings with open ground floors, often used for parking or commercial purposes, and brick walls on the upper levels have distinct vulnerabilities during earthquakes. These structures are typically designed as frame systems without considering the stiffness provided by the brick walls, which creates a significant weakness at the ground floor level ...

Soil-Structure Interaction in Nonlinear Pushover Analysis of RC Buildings
International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering TechnologyThe seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings is significantly influenced by soil–structure interaction (SSI). Traditional pushover analysis, based on FEMA 356 and ATC-40, assumes a fixed base and neglects foundation flexibility, potentially leading to unsafe designs.
