Abstract: Abstract The ground motion is a realization in space and simultaneous consideration of multiple components of ground motion is realistic and inevitable in the reliable design of structures . It is often assumed practically that there exists a set of principal axes in the ground motions. It is well recognized in the literature that the principal axes are functions of time and change their directions during the ground shaking. In the current structural design practice, the effect of the multi-component ground motions is often taken into account by use of the SRSS method (square root of the sum of the squares) or the CQC3 method (extended Complete Quadratic Combination rule).
