Fling-step effect on the seismic behavior of high-rise RC buildings during the Christchurch earthquake

Pierino Lestuzzi, Amin Karbassi

Fling-step and forward directivity, which can impose unexpected seismic demands on structures, are the main consequences of near-fault earthquakes. Although the adverse effect of forward directivity on structures behavior is determined to some level, the i ...
