RISCommunity-Resilience-Based Design of the Built Environment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current design codes and standards in the United States focus on the design of individual facilities and do not account for other coupled physical and nonphysical infrastructure. This does not provide a direct mechanism ...
Effect of Structural Redundancy on Progressive Collapse Resistance Enhancement in RC Frame Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Progressive collapse of building structures is a field of research that has received considerable attention all over the world. Moreover, the vulnerability of conventional reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings to ...
Performance Assessment of Tilt-Up Big-Box Buildings Subjected to Extreme Hazards: Tornadoes and Earthquakes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Simulation-Based Assessment of Postearthquake Functionality of Buildings with Disruptions to Cross-Dependent Utility Networks
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Buildings are central to the vitality of any community, and assessing their time-dependent functionality following a hazard event is central to resilience quantification. Such an assessment requires consideration of the ...
Combined Wind-Wave-Surge Hurricane-Induced Damage Prediction for Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Coastal structures are subjected to multihazard events such as hurricanes which consist of hurricane-induced surge and waves as well as winds. Hurricanes are a common natural hazard in the United States and cause considerable ...
