Resilient prestressed steel frame (RPSF) can reduce structural damage, reduce or eliminate residual deformations, and are easy to repair after a strong earthquake. Howeve [...]

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns in the lower stories of high-rise buildings are usually subjected to high axial loads and large lateral earthquake forces in seismic regi [...]

In recent years, a number of projects have been funded in China to quantitatively evaluate the tensile and compressive strain limits of pipes and apply these limits to bu [...]

Now, more and more low-grade limestone and construction waste are utilized as alternative raw materials in cement clinker production. However, the high content of MgO in [...]

High-Strength Steel (HSS) is gaining widespread acceptance in contemporary engineering structures, with grades of up to 690 MPa being included in many design standards. [...]

Up to now the Wenchuan Earthquake has caused nearly 70,000 casualties. It is widely believed that over 95% of the casualties and injuries were due to collapses of million [...]

A new statistical method is proposed to establish long period attenuation relation by using the supplementary data derived from seismic source spectrum theory. The result [...]

In this paper, seismic response of large-span cable-stayed bridge under multi-component multi-support earthquake excitations is studied. The emphasis is placed on investi [...]

Being the simple constructing procedure and the low cost, dynamic compaction method was widely-used in the foundation consolidation around the world. Recently, the vibrat [...]
