A METHOD FOR MEASURING THE SENSITIVITY OF BUILDING STRUCTURAL MEMBERS TO FIRE DECAY PHASES
Acta Polytechnica, 2016 Firefighters face a major threat when intervening in a building during a fire: the possibility of structural collapse during the cooling phase of the fire, or soon thereafter.

Optimal distribution of viscous dampers(VDs) in direct displacement-based design (DDBD) of controlled structures [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2020 In this paper to increase the efficiency of direct displacement based design (DDBD) in designing structures equipped with viscous dampers (VDs), a method has been proposed to determine optimal distribution of VDs.

Performance Based Seismic Design
International Journal of Advance Innovations, Thoughts & Ideas, 2015 Performance-based seismic design, which is a relatively new concept, came into existence as a means to ascertain the likely performance of an existing building structure during an earthquake. However, this approach is equally applicable to new buildings being designed.

Practical Design and Performance Based Regulations. [PDF]
Fire Science and Technology, 1998 The paper presents a sample design of a multi-storey building with respect to the fire safety. Three design strategies are examined, a standard solution according to the requirements, a fire safety engineering design without a sprinkler system and finally a fire safety engineering design with a sprinkler system.

A Performance-Based Window Design and Evaluation Model for Naturally Ventilated Offices
Buildings, 2022 This study proposes a performance-based window design model for optimised natural ventilation potential by reducing the level of indoor carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and improving thermal comfort, consequently minimising supplementary heating ...

Australia’s Combustible Cladding Crisis—A Failure in Delegated Legislation?
Buildings, 2023 Australia’s combustible cladding crisis is estimated to cost approximately $6 billion to remediate. No study has been published which determined the causative factors for the magnitude of this issue.
