Seismic Response of RC Frames with a Soft First Story Retrofitted with Hysteretic Dampers under Near-Fault Earthquakes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures with open first stories and masonry infill walls at the upper stories are very common in seismic areas. Under strong earthquakes, most of the energy dissipation demand imposed by the earthquake concentrates in ...

Instance segmentation of soft‐story buildings from street‐view images with semiautomatic annotation

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2022
In high seismic risk regions, it is important for city managers and decision makers to create programs to mitigate the risk for buildings. For large cities and regions, a mitigation program relies on accurate information of building stocks, that is, a ...

Evaluation of Using Strong Column-Weak Beam Requirements in Prequalified Welded Connections in Intermediate Steel Moment Frame [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019
Beams are genarally used to face bendind force and columns are used to face axial load. as the seismic load comes parallely with respect to earth surface. so the column faces the load pependicularly which is very risky for the column.

Utilizing Artificial Neural Networks and Random Forests to Forecast the Dynamic Amplification Factors of Non-Structural Components

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Soft stories in buildings are well-known to present structural vulnerabilities during seismic events, and the failure of non-structural components (NSCs) has been evident in past earthquakes, along with structural damage.

Probabilistic Seismic Assessment of Moment Resisting Steel Buildings Considering Soft-story and Torsional Irregularities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering, 2021
In this study, the fragility curves were developed for three-, five-, and eight-story moment resisting steel frame structures with considering soft story and torsional irregularities during the earthquake mainshock to assess the probabilistic effects of ...

Seismic Improvement and Rehabilitation of Steel Concentric Braced Frames: A Framework-Based Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2023
The ability of structures to withstand seismic loads is the most important feature of earthquake engineering. Because of their high stiffness and lateral strength, concentrically braced frames (CBF) are one of the most prevalent resisting methods in ...

Study on Shock-Absorbing Effect of a Double-Story Isolation Structure Considering Soil–Structure Interaction

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
The double-story isolation structure is a novel development based on the mid-story isolation structure. To accurately reflect the seismic response of the double-story isolation structure, this study considers a dynamic elastoplastic analysis model that ...
