## Abstract The midβstory isolation design method is recently gaining popularity for the seismic protective design of buildings located in the areas of high population. In a midβstory isolated building, the isolation system is incorporated into the midβstory rather than the base of the building. In

Static torsional provisions in most seismic codes require that the lateral force at each floor level be applied at some distance from the reference centre at that floor. However, codes do not specify how to determine the locations of these centres. As a result, several different definitions of the r
This paper investigated the response of asymmetric-plan buildings with supplemental viscous damping to harmonic ground motion using modal analysis techniques. It is shown that most modal parameters, except dynamic ampli"cation factors (DAFs), are a!ected very little by the plan-wise distribution of
