  4. Foundation input motion Free-field motion Soil-Structure Interaction How does the presence of a structure affect the response of the soil? Soil Rock How does the motion at the base of the structure differ from the free-field motion?

  5. Soil-Structure Interaction Soil-Structure Interaction In reality, the response of the soil affects the response of the structure, and the response of the structure affects the response of the soil Two components: Kinematic interaction Presence of stiff foundation elements on or in soil cause foundation motions to deviate from free-field motions. Inertial interaction Inertial response of structure causes base shear and moments which cause displacements of foundation relative to free-field.

  6. Soil-Structure Interaction • Kinematic SSI has three primary causes: • Base slab averaging – results from stiffness of foundation • Embedment – variation of ground motion with depth • Wave scattering – scattering off corners and edges Base slab averaging – stiffness of foundation prevents it from matching free-field deformations. Exists even for massless foundation.

Soil-Structure Interaction • Kinematic SSI has three primary causes: • Base slab averaging – results from stiffness of foundation • Embedment – reduction of ground motion with depth • Wave scattering – scattering off corners and edges Wave scattering reduces amplitude of high frequency components

Stiff soil Flexible structure Soft soil Stiff structure Soil-Structure Interaction Structure on circular footing of radius, r Period lengthening is negligible for a soft structure on stiff soil – it’s effects increase with increasing structure/soil relative stiffness. SSI effects are small for flexible structure on stiff site, but significant for stiff structure on soft soil. ~ T/T h/(VsT)

  33. Soil-Structure Interaction Basics • Summary • SSI is not significant for cases of flexible structures on stiff soil deposits • SSI can be quite significant for stiff structures founded on soft soils • Fundamental period of soil-structure system is longer than that of fixed-base structure • Effective damping of soil-structure system is higher than damping of structure alone • Total displacements can be increased by SSI – can be important for closely-spaced tall structures • Neglecting SSI is equivalent to assuming the structure is supported on rigid materials
