This document summarizes research on the seismic effects on irregular buildings. It begins by defining irregular buildings as those with irregular distributions of mass, stiffness, or strength along the height. Previous earthquakes have shown damage is greater in irregular buildings. The document then discusses several recent studies that have evaluated the seismic response of irregular buildings through modeling and analysis, finding increased stresses, drift, and torsion effects compared to regular buildings. It concludes that accurately evaluating the seismic behavior of irregular buildings remains challenging.
