Effects of Vertical Earthquake Ground Motion on the Seismic Response of Base-Isolated Reinforced Concrete Buildings.

This study investigates the effects of vertical ground motion on the seismic design of base-isolated structures. Two soil classes were considered, and for each class, near-fault and far-fault ground motions were selected, resulting in four seismic scenarios. Earthquake acceleration records were identified for each scen...
