Abstract: Abstract Gravity-controlled rocking braced frames (G-CBRFs) are cost-effective low-damage self-centring lateral force resisting systems that allow the reduction of the seismic force demands in structures subjected to earthquakes, while relying only on the gravity loads… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Quantifying and propagating uncertainties in structural response is critical to robust performance-based seismic assessments. This paper evaluates the influence of structural model parameter uncertainty on the seismic response and limit state assessment of controlled… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/13632469.2017.1326421
Abstract: ABSTRACT Controlled rocking heavy timber walls are designed to rock on their foundations in response to earthquakes. For regions of moderate seismicity, it is proposed that this rocking behaviour can be adequately controlled using only… read more here.
