Effect of Building Configuration on Overstrength Factor and Ductility Factor
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

Comparative Analysis of Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames in Eccentric Configuration (BRBF-Es) and Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) [PDF]
Continuing on the findings of “Using Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames in Eccentric Configuration,” by Dr. Gary S. Prinz, P.E., which determined that, from a performance standpoint, BRBF-Es could be a viable alternative for EBFs.

Use of combined scaling of real seismic records to obtain code-compliant sets of accelerograms: application for the city of Bucharest [PDF]
A recently proposed method for scaling real accelerograms to obtain sets of code-compliant records is assessed. The method, which uses combined time and amplitude scaling, corroborated with an imposed value of an instrumental, Arias type intensity ...

The study presented here aims to address some issues related to seismic design of structures, with special focus on the probabilistic modelling of reinforced concrete (RC) cross-sections capacity. It aims to validate the overstrength factors provided in Eurocode 8 for the design RC beams and columns.
