With the aim of damage control, a new earthquake-resilient prefabricated column-flange
beam-column joint (PCFBCJ) had been presented for the connection between column …

A statically determinate truss of a beam type with a triple lattice with short descending and
long ascending braces is considered. The mass of a truss is modeled by concentrated loads …

This study proposed a new-type on-site all-bolted connection that connects a truss to a
column and connects a column to a column in modularized prefabricated multi-story and …

This study proposes a type of bolted-welded beam–column joint for modularized
prefabricated multi-rise and high-rise steel structures. The components in the same module …

Existing buildings can be at a greater seismic risk due to non-conformance to current design
codes and may require structural retrofitting to improve building performance. The …

In this paper, a probabilistic performance-based-plastic-design methodology for steel
moment resisting frames with energy-dissipation rocking columns (MRF-EDRCs) was …

Seismic retrofitting of a reinforced concrete frame-shear wall building (RCFSWB), which is
widely adopted for public buildings, is critical for the seismic risk reduction of a city. Seismic …

The research object was a spatial cantilever statically determinate truss composed of three
planar trusses with a triangular lattice. The spectrum of natural frequencies of the structure …

A noteworthy feature of the hybrid steel moment resisting frames (MRFs) with energy
dissipation bays (EDBs) is the damage-control behaviour characterised by concentration of …

Special truss moment frames (STMFs) are used as the lateral force-resisting systems in
buildings. Under seismic loading, the hysteretic energy dissipation in STMFs mostly occurs …
