Effect of Soil-Structure Interaction on Seismic Performance of Long-Span Bridge Tested by Dynamic Substructuring Method

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2017
Because of the limitations of testing facilities and techniques, the seismic performance of soil-structure interaction (SSI) system can only be tested in a quite small scale model in laboratory.

Stability Analysis and Verification of Real-Time Hybrid Simulation Using a Shake Table for Building Mass Damper Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2020
The building mass damper (BMD) system, which incorporates the concept of a tuned mass damper into a mid-story isolation system, has been demonstrated as an effective system for suppressing structural vibration due to earthquakes. The BMD system separates

Experimental response of cold-formed steel stud shear wall with hardboard sheathing under seismic loading

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2021
In the design of cold-formed steel (CFS) buildings, sheathings are used to provide lateral resistance to seismic or wind load. Many researchers have thoroughly studied the basic behavior of different sheathing (including walls sheathed with plywood ...

Seismic Evaluation of a Multitower Connected Building by Using Three Software Programs with Experimental Verification

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2016
Shanghai International Design Center (SHIDC) is a hybrid structure of steel frame and reinforced concrete core tube (SF-RCC). It is a building of unequal height two-tower system and the story lateral stiffness of two towers is different, which may result

Effect of Spacing and Slenderness Ratio of Piles on the Seismic Behavior of Building Frames

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The general assumption of a rigid base at the bottom of building structures during analysis and design underestimates the seismic response. Building structures resting on loose sand and soft clayey soil are vulnerable to earthquake forces.

Shake Table Tests on Infill Plasterboard Partitions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Construction and Building Technology Journal, 2012
Shaking table tests are performed to investigate the seismic behaviour of plasterboard partitions. A steel test frame is properly designed in order to simulate the seismic effects at a generic building storey. The tests are performed shaking the table simultaneously in both horizontal directions.

Shake table tests of an industrial building

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1987
Shake table tests are conducted on a scaled frame model
of an industrial building, which has irregular story heights, different beam span lengths, and uneven weight distribution. Its elastic and inelastic responses are observed under simulated earthquakes.
