STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BRIDGES IN SEISMIC PRONE AREAS [PDF]
, 2011 For the issue of planning construction areas in order of the prevention and mitigation of seismic risk, in addition to emergency management, the scientific community has for decades studies the identification of tools and methodologies for seismic ...

S. João de Loure Bridge: vulnerability assessment and study of a common strengthening solution [PDF]
, 2005 This paper presents a structural vulnerability assessment of the steel bridge S. João de Loure. A structural model of the bridge was created and the influence of the joint’s stiffness on its structural response was evaluated using the structural analysis

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The previous seismic events indicated the vulnerability of old reinforced concrete (RC) structures against earthquakes due to the absence of seismic detailing and capacity design specifications in such buildings. In this context, beam‐column joints (BCJ) of the existing RC structures built before the 1970s have exhibited poor structural ...

Seismic Vulnerability in the Himalayan Region
Himalayan Physics, 2011 The frequently occurring strong earthquakes in the Himalayan region signify the seismic vulnerability in the region. The continued northward movement of Indian plate is generating large amount of stress at the plate boundary which is being released in form of large and great earthquakes (M≥7).

Mapping Seismic Vulnerability Index on Hasanuddin Area Using Spectral Ratio for Disaster Prevention [PDF]
, 2012 Makassar city has an earthquake vulnerability relatively low compared with other regions in Indonesia, however the mapping detail related to the amplification of seismic waves need to be done in the interests of civil engineering, planning and others. It?

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Post‐earthquake fires pose a significant threat to urban environments, with potentially catastrophic consequences for buildings and infrastructure. To enhance understanding and mitigate these risks, this study conducts a comparative analysis of post‐earthquake fire (PEF) in two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) reinforced concrete ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.

Flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular beams with wood chip aggregate
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the flexural performance of concrete‐filled steel tubular (CFST) beams with partial replacement of aggregates by wood chips (0%–25%) through experimental and numerical analysis. This study is novel in that it experimentally and numerically investigates the flexural behavior of CFST beams with partial replacement of ...
