On the Design of High-Rise Buildings for Multihazard: Fundamental Differences between Wind and Earthquake Demand

Figure 13

Effect of orientation change (original (0°), rotated 22.5° (c.w.), 45°, 67.5°, and 90°) on the building’s response (54-story building; 5-year return period): (a) acceleration response in the -direction and (b) acceleration response in the -direction. Percentages of reduction are indicated in the figure.
