Steel–concrete composite shear wall offers a favourable lateral strength and deformation ductility for seismic applications while significantly shortening the project schedule through eliminating use of formworks taking advantage modular construction methodology. This paper presents fibre-based modelling technique simulation cyclic nonlinear response walls by existing reinforced concrete steel ...

Lightweight steel framing is a method in housing and construction that have been widely used in lightweight steel construction. In this method, the structure is built by cold formed steel elements. They are cost-effective, light, and easy to assemble. However, the performance of lateral load resisting systems in cold-formed steel structures specially the behavior of cold-formed steel shear wall...

Bridges are built in a variety of locations, many of which are susceptible to multiple extreme hazards (earthquakes, vehicle collisions, tsunamis or storm surges, and blasts are considered in this research since they are present as a minimum for some locations). This underscores the need to develop an innovative design concept for bridges from a multi-hazard perspective in which all hazards and...
