T.Hisada, K.Nakagawa and M.Izumi; August, 1964. 8p.

Abstract

Following the previous report (Part I) where the variations in response of 20 storied buildings caused by the different rigidity distributions, earthquakes and restoring force characteristics are discussed, the data concerning rigidity distributions for given distribution of ?E'i are presented in this report (Part II), where ?E'i is the ratio of the maximum storey deflection ofi th floor obtained from a linear response to the designed yield values for deflection of the same floor.
