Study on corollary of seismic base isolation system on buildings with soft storey
Soft storey buildings are characterized by having a storey which has a lot of open spaces. This soft storey creates a major weak point in an earthquake. Since soft stories are classically associated with retail spaces and parking garages, they are often on the lower stories of a building, which means that when they collapse, they can take the whole building down with them, causing serious struc...
متن کاملIssues Associated with Retrofitting and Repairing Typical Un-reinforced Masonry Buildings of Two-storey or Three- Storey Height in Areas of Potential Seismic Activity
Masonry dwellings and small commercial buildings are located in areas as diverse as Adelaide, Australia, Wellington, New Zealand, and Memphis, Tennessee. The number of these masonry buildings and their design presents a danger to the human population and a potential economic loss when they are subjected to an earthquake. The dwellings of interest are constructed from unreinforced masonry. They ...
متن کاملSeismic Behavior of One-Storey Gabion-Box Walls Buildings
Gabion-boxes, made with steel wire mesh and filled with stones of appropriated size, are normally stacked up one into another to form a retaining wall. Given their reduced costs and the easy availability of their constituting materials, gabion-box walls have been extensively used in developing countries (such as Nepal) also to realize simple one-storey residential buildings. In recent years, ma...
متن کاملAssessment of Structure-Specific Fragility Curves for Soft Storey Buildings Implementing IDA and SPO Approaches
Soft storey building is popular due to the functional and aesthetic purpose, despite its weakness in resisting seismic excitation. Nonlinear Static (Pushover) Analysis (POA) is a time saving and simple assessment procedure prosposed in Eurocode 8 (EC8). However, its reliability in designing structure still remains a question. At the first stage, seismic performance of several building models us...
متن کاملReliability-based Seismic Assessment of Asymetric Multi-storey Buildings with Rc Shear Walls
The performance of buildings subjected to earthquake loads has shown that asymmetric structures are caused more extensive damages in comparison with symmetric structures. Hence, the seismic performance of asymmetric structures should be assessed due to future random earthquakes. Reliability-based seismic assessment as one of the tools in performance-based earthquake engineering has been introdu...
