Seismic resistance of existing buildings with added light timber structure storeys
Građevinar, 2022 In the presented paper, the problem of vertical expansions is treated in terms of seismic resistance of structures with added storeys. A large parametric study has been performed, confirming the impact of different number of added storeys, and the change
