Use of Garage Doors to Resist Lateral Forces
Improving the Seismic Performance of Existing Buildings and Other Structures, 2009Existing wood-panel, sectional, overhead garage doors have been shown in preliminary proof-of-concept testing to be effective as load transfer and energy dissipation elements in soft-story, wood-framed buildings. Such doors performed surprisingly well and, with further development of uplift restraint devices and additional testing, may be recommended ...

Architectural Precast Panel Systems Used For Lateral Force Resistance
Structures Congress 2009, 2009Precast exterior wall panels in multi-story buildings are typically supported by the building structure and serve the purpose of building enclosure and aesthetics. Precast, however, is a strong and stiff material and can also provide structural strength and stiffness to a building.

Experimental Study and Seismic Design of Swing Story-Lateral Force Resisting Structural System
International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2023A seismic vibration control system, consisting of a swing story substructure, a lateral force resisting substructure and connecting dampers, is recently proposed. The analytical model and optimization method based on the stability maximization and H2 criteria have been established.

Lateral force resisting systems in lightweight steel frames: Recent research advances
Thin-Walled Structures, 2018Abstract Lightweight Steel Frames (LSF) made by framing thin gauge cold-formed steel (CFS) into different structural elements such as walls, trusses and joists are commonplace in Australia and many parts of the world. The great progress in the knowledge of CFS structures achieved in the past two decades, together with the modern design and ...

Seismic fragility of lateral force resisting systems under near and far-fault ground motions
International Journal of Structural Engineering, 2016In this paper, the effect of near- and far-fault ground motions on the seismic performance of buckling restrained braced frames (BRBFs) and special moment resisting frames (SMRFs) are evaluated. Incremental dynamic analyses are employed to quantify the response parameters of the sample structures (two sets of three frames), and fragility curves are ...

Cost effective lateral force resisting concrete frame designs for low, mid and high rise buildings
Journal of Applied Science and Technology, 2011With high demand for concrete material in the building market, the goal of Portland Cement Association has be-en to increase the market share of concrete usage by promoting lateral force resisting (LFR) framing systems (moment-resisting and shearwall) in concrete structures.
