Abstract: Obtaining the bearing capacity of shallow foundations in a nonhomogeneous soil profile has been a challenging task in geotechnical engineering. In this paper, a new geometric average for the equivalent soil friction angle (

Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental research on the fire response of steel beams and their end-plate connections in column-tree moment-resisting frames (CMRFs). Using subframe assembly, full-scale steel beams ...

Abstract: The first and most important step in preparing a seismic retrofit plan for existing buildings is the analysis of seismic risk by conducting studies on retrofitting and preparing qualitative and quantitative reports. The ...
