A case study where a tuned mass damper (TMD) was installed at the top of a five-story reinforced concrete (RC) building is presented. The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of the TMD in changing the structural behavior of medium-rise ...

There are many existing buildings for which seismic rehabilitation interventions are required, especially in earthquake-prone areas like Italy. At the same time, the deep energy crisis that Europe is facing highlights the need for sustainable techniques ...

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...

In 2020, Croatia was struck by two catastrophic earthquakes, resulting in more than 50,000 damaged structures. The majority of these are masonry buildings, but there are a number of reinforced concrete structures that suffered moderate to extensive damag...

As many European countries, the Portuguese territory is a region of moderate seismicity, and a large part of its building stock includes reinforced concrete (RC) buildings built before the introduction of modern seismic codes (<1983s). Currently, the Lis...

One of the reasons that cause the collapse of buildings is deficient short columns, which need to be retrofitted to prevent the collapse of the building in a potential earthquake. External reinforced concrete (RC), steel plates, and fiber-reinforced poly...

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...

For non-seismically designed columns with insufficient strength and flexural stiffness, intense inter-story drift can be incurred during a strong earthquake event, potentially leading to the collapse of the entire building. Existing strengthening methods...
