The Faculty of Nursing building is one the administrative buildings at Andalas University. This was designed by a planning consultant and began construction in 2013. However, during period, it found that concrete quality very low, fc'=14.32 MPa, so could not be continued because accordance with quality, fc' =22.39 MPa. Therefore, necessary to evaluate feasibility structure before continued. In ...

Abstract The construction of the Industrial Engineering Department building is an effort to support educational infrastructure at Andalas University. However, process was stopped because contractor had terminated contract (breach contract) and it took a long time continue construction. Before that, structural evaluation structure should be conducted due update standards. In this study, carried ...

The majority of structural health monitoring methods are based on detecting changes in the modal properties, which are global characteristics of the structure, and are not sensitive to local damage. Wave travel times between selected sections of a structure, on the other hand, are local characteristics, and are potentially more sensitive to local damage. In this paper, a structural health monit...

Abstract While Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, adapts to more and high-rise buildings skyscrapers, concerns remain about their design efficiency ability withstand shear loads from seismic movements. In this study, several orientations placements walls in a regular G +15 story reinforced concrete building were assessed observe nature structure subjected earthquake by adopting Equivalent S...

In this paper, the study on multi-storied building with and without expansion joint when it is subjected to seismic forces in both x y direction are taken into consideration. By maintain same floor area of different plans provided along weaker column stretch stiffed order make more resistant compared joints. The analysis done using ETABS 2016. parameters such as shear force bending moment at cr...

Indonesia merupakan sebuah negara yang rawan bencana gempa bumi. Salah satu besar terjadi di adalah Yogyakarta pada 27 Mei 2006 dengan kekuatan magnitudo (Mw) 6,3 menghancurkan infrastruktur sebanyak 616.458 unit bangunan pemukiman. Berdasarkan data tersebut maka perlunya mengevaluasi gedung atau struktur sudah ada untuk mengetahui ketahanan terhadap gempa. Metode linear time history analysis b...

Abstract This study addresses the effectiveness of buckling restrained braces (BRBs) and viscous dampers (VDs) in dissipating seismic energy increasing performance irregular composite buildings during earthquake events. The response steel-concrete moment resisting frames 15 stories with concrete filled steel tubes (CFST) as columns beams was examined without protection devices by employing ETAB...

Indonesia merupakan wilayah yang berada pertemuan tiga lempeng aktif yaitu, Indo-Australia, Eurasia, dan Pasifik juga pada jalur cincin api atau ring of fire, menyebabkan sering terjadinya gempa bumi di Indonesia. Dalam perencanaan bangunan seperti Sistem Rangka Pemikul Khusus (SRPMK) bagian dari Momen (SRPM) memang digunakan dengan resiko tinggi terhadap bumi. Proses perancangan suatu gedung m...

Insufficient separation distance between adjacent buildings may lead to their pounding during strong earthquakes causing damage or local failure. Accordingly, most of the design codes specify a minimum gap prevent seismic pounding. Main objectives this research are studying reinforced concrete (RC) under various ground motions and effect on The studied modeled as three-dimensional frames ideali...

Several factors have been affecting the urban design areas, leading to construction of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. Buildings on sloped terrains gaining increased popularity, especially from architectural peers. The vulnerability constructions seismic loads increases due mass and vertical irregularity, which in turn torsional moments as well shear forces. To control effect loads, many sy...
