Earthquake Retrofitting of “Soft-Story” RC Frame Structures with RC Infills
Applied Sciences, 2022 Multi-story, old reinforced concrete (RC) structures with a “soft-story” on the ground floor, sustain considerable damage to the soft story during earthquakes due to the presence of masonry infills in the upper stories.

Evaluation of response reduction factor and ductility factorfor RC braced frame [PDF]
Journal of Materials and Engineering Structures, 2015 Response reduction factor is the factor by which the actual base shear force should be reduced, to obtain the design lateral force during design basic earthquake (DBE) shaking. The response reduction factor (R) is basically depends on Over strength (Rs),

Dynamic Analytical Observations of RC Frame
International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE), 2020 RC structures on sloping ground take columns of different height within one storey. Brittle shear failure is generally observed in short columns of RC frame as it takes the maximum shear during severe dynamic excitation by earthquake forces. Hence due to this immense problem, it is important to investigate practical and effective methods to ...

Seismic Retrofitting of RC Frames with RC Infilling [PDF]
, 2012 The effectiveness of seismic retrofitting of multi-storey multi-bay RC-frame buildings, by converting selected bays into new walls through infilling with RC, was studied experimentally at the ELSA facility at JRC, Ispra, and the results are reported here.

Applied Sciences, 2021 Most reinforced concrete (RC) frames would exhibit different degrees of damage after mainshock excitations, and these mainshock-damaged RC (MD-RC) frames are highly vulnerable to severe damage or even complete collapse under aftershock excitations.
