    • Developing Construction 4.0 transformation of Aotearoa New Zealand's construction sector 

      Andisheh, Kaveh; Karpenko, Michail; MacRae, Gregory; Chang-Richards, Alice; Clifton, Charles; Moaveni, Babak; Eftekhar Azam, Saeed; Heinzel, Holger (2023-04-19)
      Aotearoa’s construction industry reached over $20.5 billion in 2019 and it became the fourth largest workplace in the year ended June 2021, significantly contributing to New Zealand’s economy. However, it has long been ...

    • Experimental and Analytical Study of Fillet Welds for Seismic Actions 

      Ramhormozian, Shahab; Zhang, Mark; Clifton, Charles; Karpenko, Michail; Taheri, Hafez (2024-04-09)
      New Zealand steel standards NZS3404 uses a simplified method to predict the weld design capacity and to size the weld. According to the industry feedback on the design and manufacturing of the seismic welded connections, ...

    • Finite Element Convergence Study of the Asymmetric Friction Connection (AFC) in the Optimised Sliding Hinge Joint (OSHJ) 

      Alizadeh, Fatemeh; Ramhormozian, Shahab; Clifton, Charles (2023-04-19)
      The Optimised Sliding Hinge Joint (OSHJ) is a cost-effective, low damage seismic resisting beam-column connection developed for Moment Resisting Steel Framed (MRSF) buildings. The OSHJ is the optimised version of the ...

    • Numerical Investigation of Australasian Cold-Formed Steel strap-braced walls under lateral and vertical load 

      Karmakar, Ankeeta; Clifton, Charles; Lim, P.B.P (2023-04-19)
      Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) gained popularity in residential buildings due to its dimensional accuracy, lightweight, resistance to shrinking and creeping, durability, low embodied carbon and CNC manufacturing abilities. The ...

    • Numerical parametric analysis of gravity column base-plate connections 

      He, Jin Chang Winston; Clifton, Charles; Ramhormozian, Shahab (2023-04-19)
      Gravity column base-plate connections are normally treated as pinned connections in design. Correspondingly, a low rotational stiffness value is specified in the New Zealand steel design standard, NZS 3404. However, previous ...

    • Seismic application of fillet and partial penetration butt welds 

      Taheri, Hafez; Karpenko, Michail; Clifton, Charles; Ramhormozian, Shahab; Dong, Pingsha; Lim, James; Roy, Kris (2023-04-19)
      Fillet and partial (incomplete) penetration butt welds are the most cost-effective weld details for structural steel connections. Correctly sized and executed, double-sided, balanced fillet welds and partial penetration ...

    • Shake-Table Testing of the Resilient Slip Friction Joints 

      Assadi, Soheil; Bagheri, Hamed; Yan, Zhenduo; Zarnani, Pouyan; Hashemi, Ashkan; MacCrae, Greg; Clifton, Charles; Jia, Liang-Jiu; Quenneville, Pierre (2024-04-09)
      A consortium of university researchers (UoA, AUT and UC) from New Zealand and Tongji University have undertaken shake-table tests of various friction damping devices. This testing program is under the banner of the ROBUST ...

    • The ROBUST Steel Building Response 

      MacRae, Gregory; JIA, Liang-Jiu; Yan, Zhenduo; Clifton, Charles; Ramhormozian, Shahab; Dhakal, Rajesh; Xiang, Ping; Rodgers, Geoff; Quenneville, Pierre; Zhao, Xianzhong (2024-04-09)
      The ROBUST test programme describes the full-scale shaking table testing of nine different steel frame building configurations on the Tongji University shaking tables. Energy dissipation occurs by means of friction devices ...
