The seismic performance of structural steel buildings in the 2010/2011 Christchurch Earthquake series and the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake: lessons learned, ongoing research and needs of industry
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
At least 20 earthquakes greater than Ms 7 have taken place in New Zealand since 1850. The recent earthquake that occurred in Kaikoura (Ms 7.8) is considered one of the largest earthquakes since 1855, but Christchurch's ...
Full-scale shaking table testing of a low-damage steel structure using Resilient Slip Friction Joint
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
The objective of this study is to give an overview of the design and numerical analyses related to a full-scale steel structure shaking table test that includes some structural applications of Resilient Slip Friction Joint ...
Towards a better understanding of the development of the strength in Asymmetrical Friction Connections (AFCs)
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
In the current design practice, the strength of Asymmetric Friction Connections (AFCs) is calculated considering the friction force developed at both sliding interfaces using the bolt tension reduced by the moment – shear ...
