Within the research project ITSAFE, two full-scale structures were built, one consisting of a single-storey, two-span, 7.00 × 14.00 m2 RC frame with a solid slab and another consisting of a two-storey, 7.00 × 7.00 m2 RC frame with solid slabs. In the two...

Based on a practical engineering case of seismic strengthening, this paper used the enlarging cross-section method and an external self-centering substructure to improve the seismic performance and seismic resilience of existing frame structures. Among t...

In order to improve the progressive collapse resistance of an RC frame structure with an L-shaped plane under local component failure, X-tension reinforcement and steel trusses are applied to the progressive collapse resistance design. In this paper, the...

Most regional seismic damage assessment (RSDA) methods are based on the rigid-base assumption to ensure evaluating efficiency, while these practices introduce factual errors due to neglecting the soil?structure interaction (SSI). Predicting the influence...

The inelastic response of reinforced concrete (RC) frames under seismic loading is influenced by mechanical and geometrical properties and by the reinforcement arrangement of the beam?column members. In this paper, the seismic response and recentering be...

The seismic behavior of the infill masonry infill walls has a significant impact on the global response of reinforced concrete frame structures. One factor influencing its behavior is the existence of openings in the walls, such as doors and windows, whi...

In current structural design codes, elastic vibration modes are used for seismic design. However, when a structure is subjected to strong earthquakes and inelastic response or even when collapse damage is observed, the damage state is always unevenly dis...
