N2  - This article aims to investigate the dynamic characteristics (e.g. natural frequency and damping ratio) for two super high-rise completed and uncompleted buildings. Real-time kinematic-global navigation satellite system technology is applied to observe the dynamic responses. To improve the positioning accuracy and avoid distortion of the results, a Type 1 Chebyshev high-pass digital filter is used. The natural frequencies and damping ratios of the buildings are determined using the fast Fourier transform analysis and random decrement technique combined with a logarithmic decrement method, respectively. The structural parameters are obtained. The results show that real-time kinematic-global navigation satellite system technology can provide the dynamic responses of super high-rise buildings in an efficient manner and that the dynamic characteristics from field measurements agree well with the results of the numerical simulation.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
