Abstract
Building codes emphasize capacity design for superstructures, but seismic design provisions for foundations vary widely. US codes allow reduced seismic loads for footings, leading to significant movement, while Canadian codes often require capacity-protected footings with minimal movement. This study examines the effects of soil and foundation on short-period concentrically braced frame (CBF) buildings, focusing on footing size, seismic behavior, and economic loss. Results show that soil-structure interaction (SSI) can reduce expected annual loss but may increase collapse probability. Therefore, building codes should account for controlled foundation motion in design to optimize both structural performance and economic resilience.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
