This paper discusses the development of drift-based and dual-parameter fragility curves for steel braces as part of concentrically braced frames designed in seismic regions. The experimental results from 24 different research programs are compiled into a d ...
The special issue of the Construction and Building Materials journal has 14 papers covering a spectrum of studies from leading researchers the world over into the ductility characteristics of structural components or structures incorporating FRPs (fiber re ...
This paper presents key parameters that affect numerical modeling of steel frame structures for reliable collapse simulations. The collapse assessment is based on experimental data obtained from a full-scale shaking table collapse test of a 4-story steel m ...
The purpose of this study is to analytically predict and to experimentally investigate the seismic response of adjacent filled parallel rock fractures with dissimilar properties (e.g., fracture thickness and stiffness). The time-domain recursive method is ...
A joint U.S.-Japan reconnaissance team examined the damage to steel building structures caused by the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake. In the city of Sendai, where the peak horizontal ground acceleration exceeded 1 g, the majority of steel buildings performed w ...
Although mixed reinforced concrete (RC) - unreinforced masonry (URM) wall structures are often used, experimental and numerical studies on their seismic behaviour are scarce. Previous studies pointed out that the obtained results from numerical simulations ...
This paper presents the first part of a series of uniaxial cyclic tests on lap-splices. The work is conducted within the framework of a project on the seismic behaviour of existing, poorly detailed bridge piers which are typically constructed with a lap-sp ...
The purpose of this study is to further investigate the seismic response of a set of parallel rock fractures filled with viscoelastic materials, following the work by Zhu et al. Dry quartz sands are used to represent the viscoelastic materials. The split H ...
Filling materials may exist in all scales of rock fractures, not only influencing seismic wave attenuation, but controlling rock mass instability. The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the seismic response of rock fractures filled wi ...
With the introduction of higher seismic design forces in the Swiss loading standard of 2003 most unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings failed to satisfy the seismic design check. For this reason, in new construction projects, a number of URM walls are nowad ...
