Abstract During the structural design of urban over-track high-rise buildings, two
problems are most likely encountered: the abrupt change of story stiffness between the
podium and the upper towers, as well as the demand for train-induced vibration control.
Traditional earthquake-resistant structures have to be particularly designed with transfer
stories to meet the requirement of seismic control under earthquakes, and thus horizontal
seismic isolation techniques are recommended to solve the transfer problem. The function
of mitigating the vertical subway-induced vibration can be integrated into the isolation
system including thick rubber bearings and 3D composite vibration control devices.
Engineering project cases are presented in this paper for a more comprehensive
understanding of the engineering practice and research frontiers of urban over-track high-
rise buildings in China.
Keyword Urban over-track building, high-rise building, seismic isolation, train-induced
