Excerpt from Building Technology Publications, 1983: Supplement 8

Key words: dynamic loading; earthquake ground motions; pseudo-dynamic test; reinforced concrete building; seismic design; static loading tests.

The appropriate evaluation of strength and deflection characteristics of building structures is a fundamental requirement for the proper estimation of structural safety in the event of major earthquake disturbances. Various unsolved problems yet remain for this evaluation due to complexity of the combination of randomness in earthquake ground motions with nonlinear behavior of structural systems. Effects of scale and construction quality make the precise evaluation more complicated and difficult.
