Probabilistic characteristics of seismic responses of the Partially Restrained connection rotation (PRCR) and panel zone deformation (PZD) installed in older steel moment frames were investigated in accordance with statistical inference in decision-making process. The 4, 6 and 8 story older steel moment frames with clip angle and T-stub connections were designed and analyzed using 2%/50yrs grou...

AbstractExposed column base plate (ECBP) connections are commonly used in steel moment resisting frames. Current approaches for their design well-established from a mechanistic standpoint. Howe...

Abstract Earthquakes are one of the most extinctive natural unpredictable disaster. The major reason earthquakes movement Tectonic plates and excitation in earth’s crust. It is observed that many conventional buildings have constructed without considering seismic provisions given by Indian standard codes to escape disastrous effect which results into collapse disintegration buildings. Therefore...
