Estimating deformation demands on steel EBF systems
(2020-04-22)The deformation capacity of a steel eccentrically braced frame (EBF) structure is typically governed by the chord rotation capacity of the EBF links. Codes allow these chord rotation demands to be estimated a variety of ... -
Estimation of base isolated structure responses

Estimation of electricity supply restoration time with interdependencies under cascading hazard risk approach
(2024-04-09)The electricity infrastructure network functions as a system with several components interconnected and distributed over a region. When subjected to earthquake and its related cascading hazards, the vulnerable components ... -
Evaluating and Communicating Seismic Risk for Low Rating Buildings
(2024-04-09)There are many challenges for owners and occupiers of buildings where seismic assessments produce ratings of less than 34%NBS, including addressing questions about whether they should continue to occupy the building. MBIE’s ... -
Evaluating the benefits of rocking shallow foundations
(2024-04-09)Rocking foundations can offer significant benefits both in terms of seismic performance and reduced embodied carbon. This paper applies a displacement-based design procedure to achieve a rocking foundation for a multi-storey ... -
Evaluating the Effect of Initial Gravity Forces in Buckling-Restrained Brace Frame Braces
(2024-04-09)It is common practice to design buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) for seismic forces only, and to neglect any initial gravity that occurs in them. This practice assumes that these gravity loads simply “shed” upon first ... -
Evaluation of a geospatial liquefaction model using land damage data from the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake
(2021-04-14)Earthquake induced liquefaction and lateral spreading can cause major damage to buildings and infrastructure networks. Common procedures to identify exposed areas such as cone penetration testing require extensive resources ... -
Evaluation of assessment approaches for soil-foundation-structure interaction of frame buildings
(2021-04-14)The consideration of soil and foundation deformations within the seismic assessment of buildings can be critical for evaluating the likely load paths and consequent deformations. Frame buildings provide numerous complexities ...
