beam to column welded connection with radius cut on beam flange is known as rigid connection that provides acceptable ductility for special moment resisting frame (smrf). in order to decrease the cost of construction and to provide an easy-to-construct structure, the new method is available for reducing the beam section based on drilling on beam flange , known as drilled flange connection (dfc)...

Modular systems have been mostly researched in relatively low-rise structures but, lately, their applications to mid- to high-rise structures began to be reviewed, and research interest in new modularization subjects has increased. The application of modular systems to mid- to high-rise structures requires the structural stability of the frame and connections that consist of units, and the eval...

Precast Steel-Reinforced Concrete (PSRC) structural frame systems for moment-resisting, comprised of Prefabricated Steel (S) girders and Reinforced Cement (RCC) columns. This system has the advantage inherent stiffness damping during a seismic event. PSRC’s moment-resisting is also known its construction efficiency, lightweight, low cost. Earlier investigations have shown PSRC helpful in design...

Wind and earthquake disasters in the world often cause billions of dollars of damage to buildings, most of which is to non-engineered buildings-especially homes. Wood-frame homes use connectors which exhibit partial rotational rigidity at the member ends, making analytical solutions difficult. This is due to the lack of information about the complex behavior of the connections used in this type...

This paper presents the seismic performance of moment-resisting timber frame (MRTF). In Japanese urban areas, there are many small houses, and it is difficult to design a wooden building ensure both comfortable plan that effectively makes use constrained sites, also lacks flexibility in design. Therefore, expectations rising for high MRTF using residential members. this study, clarify dynamic b...

In this paper, the seismic performance of reinforced concrete moment-resisting frame with cold-joint subjected to monotonic lateral load has been studied numerically using Pushover analysis. Two modes fracture may occur for in a in-plane loading. The are Mode-I (stress orthogonal local plane crack surface) and Mode-II parallel surface but front). order model verify its behavior mode I II mechan...
