A Sensitivity Study of the Design Parameters Affecting the Global Stability of Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames
(2023-04-19)Recent research has focused on the ability of buckling-restrained braces and their connecting elements to act together as a series of resisting elements to resist mechanism formation. This potential failure mode is known ... -
A simple method to predict floor response spectral demands on nonstructural components
(2020-04-22)This paper summarises a newly proposed practice-oriented method to predict elastic floor acceleration response spectra for estimating demands on nonstructural components. The approach builds on previous contributions in ... -
A simple model to quantify rocking isolation

A statistical approach to determine the seismic design parameters in the asymmetric sliding hinge joint using Belleville Springs
(2020-04-22)The design philosophy has changed over the past 20 years in seismic engineering. Structures moved from failing in a controlled ductile manner, to low damage design, to more recently, nearly no damage design (S. Ramhormozian, ... -
A study of current research achievements and challenges on the application of High Strength Steel (HSS) endplates in seismic resisting systems
(2020-04-22)High strength steel is increasing in demand due to economic and mechanical benefits. A typical mechanical characteristic of HSS is that the ductility of the material decreases along with the increase in strength. This has ... -

A Typical Commercial Low Rise Structure - Case Study
(2021-04-14)The Case study building was designed and built in 2003. The building is a single storey rectangular shaped 25m x 21m steel portal frame structure with precast concrete panels. The building is typical of a modern commercial ... -

Accounting for the Influence of Intrinsic Soil Properties and State Variables on Liquefaction Triggering
(2023-04-19)Current simplified liquefaction triggering procedures are limited in their ability to capture the effects of intrinsic properties (grain size, mineralogy, grain shape, etc.) and the state properties (stress state, void ...
