| Title: | Seismic Assessment Of RC Structures Considering Vertical Ground Motion |
| Author(s): | Kim, Sung Jig; Elnashai, Amr S. |

Mid-America Earthquake (MAE) Center
Reinforced concrete Ground Motion |
| Abstract: | This report presents an investigation of the effect of vertical ground motion on RC structures studied through a combined analytical-experimental research approach. The analytical study investigated the effect of vertical ground motion on RC bridges and buildings considering various geometric configurations. For the experimental investigation, sub-structured pseudodynamic (SPSD) tests and cyclic static tests with different constant axial loads were employed using the Multi-Axial Full-Scale Sub-Structured Testing and Simulation (MUST-SIM) Facility. |
