In the present study, a refined procedure for the seismic
evaluation and retrofitting of reinforced concrete (RC)
buildings based on the ‘quadrants assessment method’
and ‘material strain limit approach’ is proposed and
numerically analysed. The quadrants assessment method
involves the performance point, design base shear and
threshold damage limit...

This paper aims to guide structural engineers on how to apply the rapid nonlinear time history analysis (RNLTHA) procedure effectively to predict seismic demand, taking into account ductility and overstrength, and effects of dynamic phenomena including cyclic degradation of strength and stiffness in structures, in a direct and expedient manner. The...
The use of new materials in construction endows structures with better mechanical characteristics. The combination of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) and nickel and titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloy (SMA) improves the behavior of building structures by increasing both their ductility and dissipation energy due to the low-damage and self-cen...
The earthquake vulnerability of the buildings has become more important after significant structural damages due to seismic events. The Quadrants assessment method is one of the effective procedures for the determination of the earthquake performance of the buildings. In this study, the impact of the infill walls on the structural vulnerability of...
