Abstract The inelastic response of one‐storey, asymmetric‐plan systems to two excitations is presented and analysed with the objective of identifying the influence of system parameters: uncoupled lateral vibration period, uncoupled torsional‐to‐lateral frequency ratio, stiffness eccentricity, relative values of the strength and stiffness eccentricities, and yield factor. Furthermore, the influence of yielding on the response of asymmetric‐plan systems is examined. In particular, we determine whether the well known relationship between the response of yielding and elastic single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDF) systems is also applicable to asymmetric‐plan systems.
