RISSimplified Approach to Evaluate Creep and Shrinkage Effects in Steel-Concrete Composite Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simplified approach to evaluate creep and shrinkage effects in a steel-concrete composite beam with rigid or deformable connections, based on the age-adjusted effective modulus method, is presented. An aging coefficient, ...
Flexural and Torsional Buckling Behavior of Eccentrically Compressed Laminated Glass Elements with a Viscoelastic PVB Interlayer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Due to their typical high slenderness ratios, glass structural elements can be often subjected to buckling phenomena. Major difficulties in a correct estimation of their effective buckling strength and load-carrying behavior ...
Experimental Study and Numerical Investigation of <i>Blockhaus</i> Shear Walls Subjected to In-Plane Seismic Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: systems represent a traditional construction technology in which structural resistance is obtained by direct contact between multiple timber surfaces obtained through carvings, notches, and ancient joints. Native of forested ...
Pushdown Tests on Masonry Infilled Frames for Assessment of Building Robustness
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The research presented in this paper addresses the influence of nonstructural masonry infill on the resistance of multistory buildings to progressive collapse under sudden column loss scenarios. In particular, the structural ...
Application of a Translational Tuned Mass Damper Designed by Means of Genetic Algorithms on a Multistory Cross-Laminated Timber Building
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical study conducted on a seven-story timber building made of cross-laminated (X-lam) panels, equipped with a linear translational tuned mass damper (TMD). The TMD is placed on the top of the ...
