Contribui??o das alvenarias na intera??o solo-estrutura através do estudo de um caso envolvendo danos estruturaisDOI: 10.1590/S0370-44672012000200006 Keywords: soil-structure interaction, structural damages, distortional settlements. Abstract: an analysis of soil-structure interaction of a construction with unsatisfactory foundation behavior along time is presented. previous analyses by rosa (2005) are briefly described considering soil x structure interaction in predicting foundation settlement. in addition, a new analysis is now presented, including the influence of the masonry in the soil-structure interaction. the predicted distortional settlements are analyzed in conformity with the observed damages documented at various moments of the construction lifetime. kelvin's model was employed to represent the soil behavior along time. notwithstanding the simplifications adopted and justified in the article, the results of the numerical analysis were able to reproduce the extent and spatial location of the damages. such results show the relevance of a more realistic foundation analysis involving soil x structure interaction.
