Seismic Performance of Special Structural Walls Using Overlapping Hoops Instead of Closed Hoops
In this study repeated cyclic loading tests were carried out on seven shear wall specimens, which were fabricated in a real scale. The purpose of these experiments is to investigate the difference on the seismic performance of the wall depending on two ...

GenFloor: Interactive generative space layout system via encoded tree graphs
Automated floorplanning or space layout planning has been a long-standing NP-hard problem in the field of computer-aided design, with applications in integrated circuits, architecture, urbanism, and operational research.

Michalatos and Kaijima underline in their paper ‘Structural Information as Material for Design’ (2007) the importance to approach an informed design consistency and respect the “criteria of efficiency, architectural intentions as well as intrinsic properties of the geometry” rather than simple structural optimization of a certain design.

Performance-Based Structural Fire Engineering of Steel Building Structures: Traveling Fires
Many studies and observations of large building fires show that in large compartments, fires do not burn uniformly. Rather, fires will burn locally and move across a floor plate as fuel is consumed.

The SFPE Engineering Guide to Performance-Based Fire Protection [1] defines performance-based design as “an engineering approach to fire protection design based on (1) agreed upon fire safety goals and objectives, (2) deterministic and/or probabilistic analysis of fire scenarios, and (3) quantitative assessment of design alternatives against the fire ...

Practical Design and Performance Based Regulations.
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.
