Pounding between adjacent structures has been repeatedly observed during major earthquakes. The phenomenon may cause some local damage at the points of interactions, it may also lead to substantial destruction, permanent deformations or total collapse of colliding structures. The effects of earthquake-induced structural pounding have been studied for more than three decades now. However, most of the studies concerned masonry as well as reinforced concrete structures and investigations on steel structures are very limited. The aim of the present paper is to show the results of the shaking table experimental investigation focused on earthquake-induced pounding between three models of steel structures in a row. The models were constructed out of four steel columns made from rectangular box section with additional steel skew bracings so as to prevent transverse and torsional vibrations. To obtain different dynamic characteristics of the models, additional plates were added at the top of each tower. Two configurations were investigated. In the first one, two plates were mounted on the external structures and only one plate at the top of the middle tower. In the second configuration, only one plate was mounted at the top of external towers and two plates on the middle structure. Firstly, the free vibration tests were conducted. Then, the steel towers with different in-between gap sizes were tested under different earthquakes. The results of the study confirm that interactions between insufficiently separated steel structures may significantly influence the structural behaviour during earthquakes. In most of the cases, pounding has resulted in the increase in the peak responses. In some cases, however, it has played a positive role leading to the decrease in the structural response under seismic excitation. Anyway, even if the response is reduced, interactions should be prevented at the design stage of steel structures since they may result in considerable damage at the points of impacts.
