Full‐scale Shaking Table Tests on a 10‐story Steel Moment‐resisting Frame Building with Buckling‐restrained Braces

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2356-2378, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In February 2023, a comprehensive series of shaking table tests were conducted at the E‐Defense facility, the world's largest three‐dimensional earthquake simulator, on a full‐scale 10‐story steel moment‐resisting frame supplemented with BRBs.

Seismic Fragility and Vulnerability of Partially Grouted Flexural‐Controlled Reinforced Masonry Buildings in Colombia

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This paper presents the development of analytical fragility and vulnerability functions for flexure‐controlled partially grouted reinforced masonry (RM) buildings that are representative of Colombian urban areas, with the goal of enhancing national seismic risk assessments.

Development of Full‐Scale Experiment‐Based Seismic Fragility Functions for Code‐Compliant Fire Sprinkler Piping Systems

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Fire sprinkler systems are critical for fire safety, but their functionality can be impaired by seismic damage. This study develops new seismic fragility functions for acceleration‐sensitive damage requiring monitoring, maintenance, and repair in code‐compliant fire sprinkler piping systems, using experimental data from full‐scale experimental tests ...

Quantification of Direct Benefits of Functional Recovery‐Based Design for Seismic Resilience

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Lessons from recent major earthquakes have shown that current life‐safety‐centered seismic design practice falls short in ensuring a desirable post‐hazard recovery. Extensive economic losses, high demolition rates, and long recovery have signified a gap between design targets and society's expectations of seismic performance of code‐compliant buildings.

A Bayesian Framework for Empirical Estimation of Post‐Earthquake Building Inspection Time

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Building safety inspections can be an impeding determinant of post‐earthquake recovery, yet their durations remain inadequately quantified because fine‐grained operational data are rarely available. Here, we present a probabilistic Bayesian framework to quantify building‐level inspection time, calibrated against a comprehensive multiagency dataset from
