EVALUATION OF BASE-ISOLATOR TYPE DISTRIBUTION IN LOW-RISE BUILDINGS [PDF]
Seismic base isolation is an earthquake resistant design method that is based on decreasing the seismic demand instead of increasing the seismic capacity. In this paper, the seismic response of base-isolated structures is numerically investigated.

Field monitoring and wind tunnel study of wind effects on roof overhang of a low‐rise building
Roof overhang is one of the most easily damaged parts of low‐rise buildings during windstorms. To investigate the wind‐induced pressure distributions and forces on the roof overhang of a typical low‐rise building, field monitoring during two typhoons and
