Abstract: Traditional connections in earthquake-resistant cross-laminated timber buildings are susceptible of brittle failures, even when buildings are designed and supposed to be ductile. This is mainly due to the large underestimation of the actual strength of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40069-017-0192-9
Abstract: This study investigates the seismic performance of a staggered wall structure designed with conventional strength based design, and compares it with the performance of the structure designed by capacity design procedure which ensures strong column-weak… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2021/5178065
Abstract: The actual seismic building codes have a prescriptive nature, and they are principally aimed to guarantee a prescribed life-safety level against a design-level earthquake even if some methods have been proposed to evaluate the seismic… read more here.
