Probabilistic assessment of the seismic damage in reinforced concrete buildings
The main objective of this article is to assess the expected seismic damage in reinforced concrete buildings from a probabilistic point of view by using Monte Carlo simulation. To do that, the seismic behavior of the building is studied by using random capacity obtained by considering the mechanical properties of the materials as random variables. Starting from the capacity curves, one can obta...
متن کاملProbabilistic Seismic Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Structural Components and Systems
An accurate evaluation of the structural performance of reinforced concrete structural systems under seismic loading requires a probabilistic approach due to uncertainties in structural properties and the ground motion (referred to as basic uncertainties). The objective of this study is to identify and rank significant sources of basic uncertainties and structural components with respect to the...

متن کاملLightning-Generated Fields in Reinforced concrete Buildings
This contribution presents a study, model and validation of the amplitudes of the residual fields inside a one-story building for different locations of lightning impacts. The special case where a second gridded structure exist inside the main building, forming a box-in-the-box configuration, is analyzed. We show also that formulas for magnetic field attenuation found in the relevant IEC docume...
متن کاملInfluence of Infill Panels and their Distribution on Seismic Behavior of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Infills can highly influence the seismic response of a Reinforced Concrete (RC) building: generally speaking, their presence leads to an increase in global stiffness and strength, but their brittle behavior can result in an increase of displacement demand if a certain threshold of seismic intensity is overcome. Moreover, presence of infills often leads to a change in the collapse mechanism comp...
