This study aims to validate the ASCE7–16 code, which investigates the effects of near-field earthquakes, Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI), and connection types on the seismic performance of the code-conforming Steel Special Moment-Resisting Frames (SMRFs). To this end, three structures with 4, 9, an...
