A comparison of New Zealand seismic code requirements with other major design codes in the implementation of seismic resilient devices
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
In the ever-evolving earthquake engineering field, the need of the hour is to achieve earthquake-resistant buildings which have immediate occupancy following an earthquake. This implies that the demand for resilient dampers ...
Design of RSFJ Self-centring Brace for Ultimate Limit State
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
In previous studies, it was shown that the RSFJ brace assembly is prone to elastic buckling for which a new mechanism composed of two telescopic sections was introduced as a remedy to increase the elastic buckling load, ...
Application of resilient rocking cores in low damage mass timber structures: A case study
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2022-04-27)
The application of mass timber structures made with massive wooden panels such as Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) has significantly increased in the last few years owing to their many architectural and structural advantages, ...
