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 ... -

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 ... -
Achieving earthquake-safe buildings – an educational initiative for developing nations
(2023-04-19)Building departments in developing nations have a poor track record of achieving earthquake-safe new buildings. Many buildings, within their jurisdictions are not expected to perform well in medium- to high-intensity ... -

Adequacy and Retro-Fitting of Timber Frame House Foundations on Slopes
(2021-04-14)Previous studies have indicated that there are significant issues with the structural strength and stability of many existing house foundations on sloping sites. This was confirmed after the Christchurch earthquakes, where ... -
Advanced FEA assessment of existing concrete floor diaphragms with low-ductility steel reinforcement
(2020-04-22)Diaphragms are primary structural elements which are crucial to the structural stability of buildings. Despite the known deficiencies of diaphragms reinforced with cold-drawn steel mesh, their reliable strength and ...
