Seismic Response of a Platform-Frame System with Steel Columns [PDF]
, 2017 Timber platform-frame shear walls are characterized by high ductility and diffuse energy dissipation but limited in-plane shear resistance. A novel lightweight constructive system composed of steel columns braced with oriented strand board (OSB) panels ...

Seismic Vulnerability of Non-Code-Compliant and Code-Compliant RC Buildings
Structural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and BuildingsThis study investigates the seismic vulnerability of non-code-compliant reinforced concrete (RC) buildings compared to code-based structures. The research uses linear elastic and nonlinear pushover analyses (NPA) to evaluate critical seismic performance ...

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

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2017 In seismic codes, the force strength reduction factor is proposed to transform elastic to inelastic strength. The ductility reduction factor, Rμ, plays a key role on R factor if no overstrength is present. The Rμ is determined by SDOF systems.

A quasi-static nonlinear analysis for assessing the fire resistance of 3d frames exploiting time-dependent yield surface [PDF]
, 2019 In this work an automatic procedure for evaluating the axial force-biaxial bending yield surface of reinforced concrete sections in fire is proposed. It provides an accurate time-dependent expression of the yield condition by a section analysis carried ...
