Mesoscale Modeling of a Masonry Building Subjected to Earthquake Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Masonry structures constitute an important part of the built environment and architectural heritage in seismic areas. A large number of these old structures showed inadequate performance and suffered substantial damage ...
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 ...
