Dissipative Bracing-Based Seismic Retrofit of R/C School Buildings
A dissipative bracing system incorporating pressurized fluid viscous spring-dampers has been studied for many years by the authors as an alternative seismic protection strategy for new and existing frame structures. As a concluding stage of this activity, a set of demonstrative case studies was examined to illustrate the enhancement of seismic performance and the economic advantages guaranteed ...
متن کاملEnergy-Based Design Criterion of Dissipative Bracing Systems for the Seismic Retrofit of Frame Structures
Direct sizing criteria represent useful tools in the design of dissipative bracing systems for the advanced seismic protection of existing frame structures, especially when incorporated dampers feature a markedly non-linear behaviour. An energy-based procedure is proposed herein to this aim, focusing attention on systems including fluid viscous devices. The procedure starts by assuming prefixed...
متن کاملA Comparative Analysis of Decision Making Methods for the Seismic Retrofit of Rc Buildings
Several different technical options are nowadays available to seismically upgrade an existing building. Selecting the best one with reference to a given structure generally represents a complex problem. In fact many and generally conflicting are also the points of view by which each alternative has to be judged. Decision support systems like the so called Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) m...
متن کاملProbabilstic Seismic Risk Evaluation of Rc Buildings
As more and more emphasis is being laid on non-linear analysis of RC framed structures subjected to earthquake excitation, the research and development on both non-linear static (pushover) analysis as well as nonlinear dynamic (time history)analysis is in the forefront. Due to prohibitive computational time and efforts required to perform a complete nonlinear dynamic analysis, researchers and d...
متن کاملFull and Perforated Metal Plate Shear Walls as Bracing Systems for Seismic Upgrading of Existing Rc Buildings
Metal Plate Shear Walls (MPSWs) represent an effective, practical and economical system for the seismic protection of existing RC framed buildings. They consist of one or more metallic thin plates, bolted or welded to a stiff steel frame, which are installed in the bays of RC framed structures. A case study of an existing RC residential 5-storey building, designed between the ‘60s and ‘70s of t...
