Multi-criteria Decision Making for Seismic Retrofitting of an Underdesigned Rc Structure
Seismic retrofitting of under-designed structures is a consolidated approach to risk management. Several options are available for the achievement of the vulnerability reduction goals, each of those having peculiar performances in respect of different technical and non-structural criteria. Selection of the best solution is a non-trivial task, because criteria may conflict each other. MultiCrite...
متن کاملRetrofitting of Existing Rc Square Bridge Columns Using Basalt Frp Rebars
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have been widely utilized to improve the seismic performance of deficient reinforced concrete (RC) columns. In recent years, one of the emerging types of FRPs used is basalt fibers. In this study, the performance of existing columns was experimentally examined before and after applying near-surface mounted (NSM) basalt FRP (BFRP) rebars as a retrofitting techniq...
متن کاملSeismic Vulnerability Assessment of Existing Rc Buildings in Gis Environment
With rapid population growth over the past 30 years and no significance seismic activity during this period, the unchecked development of the built environment in Bangladesh has been resulted in little resilience to earthquake. Identifying buildings due to this unchecked development that has high vulnerability is of critical importance both for reliable loss estimation as a result of an expecte...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofitting of Existing Shear Walls by Means of High Performance Rc Jacket
A new technique for the strengthening of existing R/C shear walls based on the application of very thin high performance jackets is presented in this paper. The strengthening jacket is made of high performance concrete and high strength steel mesh. The experimental study on a 1:3 scale R/C wall, proportioned to resist the vertical loads only, and reinforced by means of a 15 mm thick high perfor...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofitting RC Structures with Precast Prestressed Concrete Braces- ABAQUS FEA Modeling
Precast prestreesed concrete braces are a new method for seismic strength of Concrete Structures which has the following benefits: a) no wet concrete work in construction site b) No bolt or anchorage to the existing frame c) easy to apply d) short construction period e) low construction cost, to evaluate seismic performance of strengthened structure a model consist of existing frame and concret...
