Seismic mitigation of steel modular building structures through innovative inter-modular connections [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
Steel modular building structures are being increasingly adopted for a variety of building applications since their method of construction, despite being relatively new, offers many benefits over conventional constructional methods. Even though their behaviour under gravity (dead and live) loads is generally well understood, their response to lateral ...
