Past earthquakes (e.g., 1985 Mexico earthquake) have demonstrated the severe seismic vulnerability of asymmetric buildings due to coupled lateral-torsional vibration in elastic as well as in inelastic range, even under a purely translational ground shaking. Extensive research effort on inelastic behaviour of asymmetric buildings has generally used an elasto-plastic or bilinear hysteresis behaviour for the structural load-resisting elements, ignoring the strength and stiffness deteriorating characteristics of RC structural elements under cyclic loading. Hence, these studies could not recognize the possibility of progressively increasing torsional damage of load resisting elements near one edge, due to continuous shifting of centre of resistance caused by such degradations during inelastic excursions. The present study on asymmetric one storey building systems aims to assess these possible detrimental effects. The system responses are studied using a) elasto-plastic, b) stiffness degrading, c) strength deteriorating, and d) stiffness degrading as well as strength deteriorating hysteresis models for the load-resisting elements. These responses are expressed in terms of the maximum displacement demand and hysteretic energy demand in load-resisting elements. Variations of these two response quantities are studied for feasible ranges of influencing parameters due to each of the four hysteresis behaviours. The results are compared to understand the effects of stiffness degradation and strength deterioration. The remedial measures are also outlined to control the excessive response found to be generated due to such degradation effects. The study may prove useful to arrive at more justified torsional code provisions.
