Strong Vibration of buildings during seismic or wind loading may result in anuplift or partial separation of the foundation from the underneath soil. Todate, various researches have indicated that Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)has many favorable features including a probable increase in natural period ofthe soil-structure system and also a decrease in shear base demand instructures. Furthermore, Rocking is one of the most important factors indescribing the rotational behavior of a structure built on a shallow foundationespecially on a soft soil which can affect the dynamic behavior of thestructure noticeably. To study the effects of rocking of shallow foundationssubjected to slow cyclic loading with consideration of soil-structureinteraction, a Finite Element Method (FEM) using ABAQUS software has beendeployed to simulate the rocking motion of shallow foundations. For a moreefficient simulation of the soil, both linear and non-linear elasto-plasticbehavior of the soil has been taken into account in the analysis using thesub-routine coded in FORTRAN. The results notably show that allowing thefoundation to rock may result in stiffness degradation of the soil-structuresystem and an increase in energy dissipation of soil-structure, especially inhigh rise structures. Additionally, results describe that deploying the linearelastic-perfect plastic approach may result in higher uplift of the foundationin comparison to that using a non-linear elasto-plastic approach, particularlyin structures with lower heights.
