Practical use of secondary walls such as side wall is expected because contributions of secondary walls for stiffness or strength have been recognized. In this report hys [...]

An anchor-bolt-yield-type column base shows slip-type restoring force characteristics. A column base subjected to constant axial and cyclic horizontal forces shows more c [...]

One of authors has proposed a scheme for Internet-based collaborative structural analysis (CSA) in which many researchers worldwide can collaborate and unify their differ [...]

The building structural engineers can’t necessarily predict the fabrication cost from the structural weight appropriately. It is because the fabrication cost for steel [...]

A main reason for early tensile brittle fracture of the anchor-bolts in the steel exposed-type column bases under the past earthquake is that the thread part has the decr [...]
