Ductility and overstrength of nailed CLT hold-down connections [PDF]
Engineering Structures, 2020 The structural performance of nailed hold-down connection systems used for cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls under monotonic and cyclic loading was experimentally evaluated. Critical connection performance parameters, including strength, stiffness, ductility, and overstrength, were derived from the testing of 68 hold-down connection specimens ...

Overstrength of Displacement-Based Designed Eccentrically Braced Steel Frames [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2016 Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) is a performance-based seismic design method that has been proposed and developed over the past two decades for RC frame structures, shear walls and bridges design. The aim of this study is to evaluate overstrength

Effect of Building Configuration on Overstrength Factor and Ductility Factor
, 2021 It is important for the structure to be economical and still have a high level of life safety. The lateral force sustained by the structures during a large earthquake would be several times larger than the lateral force for which the structures are designed. This is opposite to the fact that design loads such as gravity in codes are usually higher than

Buildings, 2022 The over-strength coefficient is one of the key factors for the seismic safety of a structure. For RC frames, the infill wall may improve the lateral bearing capacity, while the seismic demand increases as well, which leads to the unexpected seismic ...

Analytical derivation and experimental verification of overstrength factors of dowel-type timber connections for capacity design [PDF]
, 2020 In timber structures, connections traditionally provide ductility and energy dissipation under seismic loading. Capacity design ensures that the global structural response is ductile by applying overstrength to the design demand of brittle elements ...

Influence of the designer-assumed cyclic hardening parameters on the overstrength of austenitic stainless steel links [PDF]
, 2023 Dissipative zones in buildings allow for the release of energy when a seismic event occurs. The structural analysis of these zones involves the study of the structure at different levels ranging from mechanical properties of materials, adjacent elements,

Response Modification Factor of RC Frames Strengthened with RC Haunches
Shock and Vibration, 2020 This paper presents experimental and numerical studies carried out on two-story reinforced concrete (RC) frames having weaker beam-column joints, which were retrofitted with reinforced concrete haunches to avoid joint panel damage under seismic actions ...
