ABSTRACT A reinforced concrete waffle‐flat plate structure was subjected to a sequence of bidirectional near‐fault ground motions on a shake table until collapse. The test specimen was designed under current building codes and assigned a region of moderate seismicity.

A new inventory framework for Montreal predicts the structural systems of residential buildings and estimates the number of associated units using open‐access databases and the city's construction trends. The framework supports regional‐scale seismic risk assessments through improved classification and data integration. ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment

Seismic design and analysis of masonry-infilled frames
A simple analytical procedure, which can be used by practicing engineers, for the seismic design of masonry-infilled frames is presented. The analysis procedure, based on the experimental and analytical studies reported in the literature, accounts for the effect of infills in all three stages, namely, in computing seismic loading, in predicting ...

Drift demands of low-ductile moment resistance frames (MRF) under far field earthquake excitations [PDF]
Most of current Malaysian's structures have not been designed with consideration of seismic excitation effect. Tremors that have been recorded locally due to active local faults and earthquake events in neighboring countries have raised the question ...

Practical assessment of masonry tunnel joint segmentation using topological machine learning
Abstract Condition assessment of masonry lined tunnels is time consuming and labor intensive. Recently developed digital workflows enable structural models to be created automatically, reducing analysis time. As part of these procedures, it is important to be able to identify the location of each masonry block.

ABSTRACT This study deals with the high‐fidelity block‐based finite element simulation of dynamic out‐of‐plane (OOP) responses of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls, explicitly focusing on two‐way bending behaviors under seismic loads, which is a common critical failure mode in real‐world masonry structures.

Retrofitting masonry infill walls with textile reinforced mortar [PDF]
The vulnerability of unreinforced masonry walls (URM) under seismic events, causing huge loss of money and human lives, has revealed the enormous need for an efficient strengthening material.
