Earthquake-induced structural pounding has led to significant damages during previous earthquakes. This paper investigates the effect of pounding on the dynamic response of colliding high-rise buildings with different structural arrangements. Three 3-D buildings are considered in the study, including 5-storey building, 7-storey building and 9-storey building. Three pounding scenarios are also taken into account, i.e. pounding between 5-storey and 7-storey buildings, pounding between 5-storey and 9-storey buildings and pounding between 7-storey and 9-storey buildings. These three pounding scenarios are studied and compared with the no pounding case. The results show that the level of accelerations of colliding buildings significantly increases for all scenarios, as compared to the no pounding case. At the same time, displacements experience both increase and decrease, while the peak storey shears experience an increase due to pounding with few exceptions regarding the top storeys. Finally, pounding leads to the generation of dangerous impact forces with higher peak values experienced in taller buildings.
