over the past decade of extensive research works, the thin un-stiffened steel plate shear wall(spsw) has now emerged as a promising lateral load resisting system. considering thedemand of performance-based seismic design (pbsd) philosophy in current and futureseismic design codes, a ductility-based design was recently proposed for spsw systems withpin-connected boundary beams. however, the effe...

The construction industry is a big contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which has negative environmental impact. Several studies have highlighted the possibility of using timber reduce impact construction. Most these focused on residential buildings, but little attention been devoted industrial buildings. In this paper, an attempt made compare timber, steel, and reinforced concrete in build...

Being economical and performing well under cyclic loads, steel sections filled with concrete have been widely used in structural buildings. Extensive studies and experiments have been conducted to investigate the influence of different parameters and loadings on the behavior of these structural components. Based on the data available from previous experiments and studies, this paper discusses t...

This paper presents a new methodology for the displacement-based seismic design of symmetric single-storey wood-frame buildings. Previous displacement-based design efforts were based on the direct displacement-based design approach, which uses a substitute linear system with an appropriate stiffness and viscous damping combination. Despite the fact that this method has shown to produce promisin...

Steel structures have been widely used in civil engineering recent decades across applications such as large spatial structures, high-rise buildings, and bridges [...]

Abstract High-rise buildings (multi-storey buildings) are currently increasing in development, accordance with their functions as apartments, offices, shopping centers or educational activities. In the implementation of high-rise building construction involves a lot resources. One resources needed large quantities is material. process implementing construction, addition to results obtained buil...

While structural strengthening is not the consequence of a structure's condition failure, it does take place as result need to increase stiffness and load capacity when change in usage occurs. As result, various techniques must be presented enhance elements by considering economic time requirement factors load-bearing capacity. In this study, issue demonstrated using steel I-beam that was stren...
