The inelastic torsional response of an asymmetric-plan hospital building in Italy is studied. At this aim, a nonlinear analytical model is developed and verified using system identification based on environmental vibration tests. A non linear static procedure for the assessment of inelastic response of irregular buildings is proposed. This procedure accounts for mass distribution, higher modes contribution and mode-shapes correlation.

Abstract

The inelastic torsional response of an asymmetric-plan hospital building in Italy is studied. At this aim, a nonlinear analytical model is developed and verified using system identification based on environmental vibration tests. A non linear static procedure for the assessment of inelastic response of irregular buildings is proposed. This procedure accounts for mass distribution, higher modes contribution and mode-shapes correlation. Finally, the seismic assessment of inelastic torsional response is evaluated and the influence of eccentricity between mass centre and stiffness centre is investigated.
