Application of Earthquake Response Spectrum in the Ultra-High-Rise Building Design

The design of ground motion, including the response spectrum design and seismic wave design, is one of the important parameters for aseismic design of building structures. Consequently, the reasonable design of ground motion has a critical influence on the aseismic design of building structures. Given the importance of high-rise buildings, site survey data are generally in great detail. In this case, making full use of the data and reasonably designing response spectra and seismic design are more appropriate to the characteristics of specific sites of high-rise buildings than determining seismic input based on a simplified method and limited data.
