Seismic Vulnerability Assessment for Steel Structures [PDF]
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.
