ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

Collapse Fragility Evaluation of Ductile Reinforced Concrete Block Wall Systems for Seismic Risk Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Reinforced Masonry Building Seismic Response Models for ASCE/SEI-41
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development of models to predict the inelastic behavior of the individual components of a building system at different performance levels is an essential step in performing nonlinear static and dynamic analyses, as ...
Influence of Floor Diaphragm–Wall Coupling on the System-Level Seismic Performance of an Asymmetrical Reinforced Concrete Block Building
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Understanding the inelastic seismic response of reinforced masonry shear walls (RMSW) is the first step to develop predictive models of the system-level (i.e., complete building) response under different levels of ...

Resilience Evaluation of Seismically Detailed Reinforced Concrete-Block Shear Walls for Blast-Risk Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The increased demand for resilient infrastructure under accidental or deliberate explosions has resulted in the urgent need to quantify the performance of both existing and new building components under such extreme loading ...
Simplified Framework for Blast-Risk-Based Cost-Benefit Analysis for Reinforced Concrete-Block Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) is essential for evaluating different options for blast risk management. However, depending on the risk management approach being considered, a rigorous blast PRA study can be quite ...
System-Level Displacement- and Performance-Based Seismic Design Parameter Quantifications for an Asymmetrical Reinforced Concrete Masonry Building
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper focuses on analyzing the performance of structural walls comprising the seismic force resisting system (SFRS) in a scaled asymmetrical fully grouted reinforced masonry (RM) building tested under quasi-static ...
