8. Conclusions
- The rocking ratio , detecting the phase shift of vertical displacement time history at the corners of the building base and indicating when rocking motion occurs for a specific frequency band;
- The rocking amplitude ratio , an amplitude criterion proposed to estimate the part of rocking motion on the whole horizontal motion at the top of the building, allowing the estimation of an expected rocking tendency;
- The rocking spectrum indicates the frequency bands in which the rocking motion is amplified because the first mode is not necessarily the only one affected by the swaying motion, and higher modes can also be affected.
