Evaluating the Performance of the Buckling Restrained Braces in Tall Buildings with peripherally braced frames
In recent years, seismic design of structures has been undergoing significant changes due to increasing demand for optimization and minimizing the level of damage and reducing the cost of structural repairs. Development of analytical methods and remarkable improvements of computer performance have been among the factors which influenced the design of structures. A lot of research has been condu...
متن کاملSeismic Vulnerability Assessment of Existing Rc Buildings in Gis Environment
With rapid population growth over the past 30 years and no significance seismic activity during this period, the unchecked development of the built environment in Bangladesh has been resulted in little resilience to earthquake. Identifying buildings due to this unchecked development that has high vulnerability is of critical importance both for reliable loss estimation as a result of an expecte...
متن کاملFull and Perforated Metal Plate Shear Walls as Bracing Systems for Seismic Upgrading of Existing Rc Buildings
Metal Plate Shear Walls (MPSWs) represent an effective, practical and economical system for the seismic protection of existing RC framed buildings. They consist of one or more metallic thin plates, bolted or welded to a stiff steel frame, which are installed in the bays of RC framed structures. A case study of an existing RC residential 5-storey building, designed between the ‘60s and ‘70s of t...
متن کاملThermal Behavior of Cylindrical Buckling Restrained Braces at Elevated Temperatures
The primary focus of this investigation was to analyze sequentially coupled nonlinear thermal stress, using a three-dimensional model. It was meant to shed light on the behavior of Buckling Restraint Brace (BRB) elements with circular cross section, at elevated temperature. Such bracing systems were comprised of a cylindrical steel core encased in a strong concrete-filled steel hollow casing. A...
متن کاملProbabilstic Seismic Risk Evaluation of Rc Buildings
As more and more emphasis is being laid on non-linear analysis of RC framed structures subjected to earthquake excitation, the research and development on both non-linear static (pushover) analysis as well as nonlinear dynamic (time history)analysis is in the forefront. Due to prohibitive computational time and efforts required to perform a complete nonlinear dynamic analysis, researchers and d...
