Abstract: Sliding base (SB) systems are attractive options for protecting low-rise buildings in high-seismicity undeveloped rural areas. This study focuses on the peak sliding displacements (PSDs) of SB structures subjected to ...

Abstract: Sliding-base (SB) systems are efficient for protecting low-rise buildings in high-seismicity rural areas. The normalized peak pseudoacceleration (NPPA) of one-story SB structures under three-component earthquake excitation ...
