Seismic Vulnerability Assessment for Steel Structures [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2015 International Conference on Industrial Technology and Management Science, 2015 Steel structures are often used in building constructions. However, in seismic area these structures could suffer heavy damages, especially those build according ancient seismic codes. To assess the seismic vulnerability of such structures, studies must be conducted.
