In the past few years, numerous studies on the effects of near-field earthquakes on the response of structures and their differences with far-field earthquakes imply the attention of researchers to this issue. In this regard, the objectives of present study are to study the effects of near-field earthquakes on the behavior of structures and to compare these types of earthquakes with far-field ones. To do this, the characterization of near-field earthquakes and their descriptions are used to define the differences between near-field and far-field earthquakes in regard to radically distinctive responses of structures. In the present study, the incremental dynamic analysis of a sevenstorey building with concrete structure for few near-field and far-field earthquakes is done and the associated diagrams of relative structural displacement are compared. In the end, the comparison of these plots is used to denote the differences in the structural behaviors of these two types of earthquakes.
