Composite Joints in Robust Building Frames [PDF]
Recent events such as natural catastrophes or terrorism attacks have highlighted the necessity to ensure the structural integrity of buildings under exceptional actions. Accordingly, a European RFCS project entitled “Robust structures by joint ductility” has been set up in 2004, for three years, with the aim to provide requirements and practical ...

Vibration attenuation at asymmetric cross‐form joints of buildings
The aim of the work is to estimate sound energy transmission through asymmetrical crossâ€junctions in buildings. Several kinds of these joints have been investigated. Theoretical calculation model to obtain transmission loss was developed and a system of equations established.
