Description
Summary:During an earthquake, the seismic response of adjacent buildings will be affected by each other, which is known as structure-soil-structure interaction (SSSI). In order to study the SSSI between neighboring buildings, the slab foundation frame structure on a typical type II site in Nanjing is used as the object. ABAQUS software is used to establish a nonlinear static-dynamic coupling two-dimensional finite element analysis model of a single building and multiple buildings with different spacing. The numerical analysis of the model shows that: Under the action of earthquakes, the increase of surrounding structures will increase its own acceleration response; when the building spacing ratio is 1/2 and 1/4, the existence of adjacent buildings will reduce its own acceleration response. When the spacing ratio is greater than or equal to 1, the impact tends to be unfavorable, and it is the most unfavorable when the spacing ratio is 2. When the spacing ratio is greater than or equal to 4, the impact of adjacent buildings on each other’s peak acceleration response can be ignored.
