(CTA 2013) METODI SEMPLIFICATI PER L’ANALISI STRUTTURALE DI NODI TRAVE-COLONNA FLANGIATI —- SIMPLIFIED METHODS OF ANALYSIS FOR END-PLATE BEAM-TO-COLUMN JOINTS
ABSTRACT The analysis of beam-to-column joints behaviour is essential to evaluate the seismic response of moment resisting frame structures. Literature provides several... Learn More
(CTA 2013) UN CONFRONTO TRA TELAI IN ACCIAIO IN ZONA SISMICA PROGETTATI CON METODO “ALLE FORZE” E “AGLI SPOSTAMENTI” —- A COMPARISON OF FORCE-BASED AND DISPLACEMENT-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN SOLUTIONS FOR A STEEL MRF BUILDING
ABSTRACT In an effort to overcome the shortcomings of conventional force-based design methodologies, many displacement-based seismic design (DBD) methods have been proposed... Learn More

Two specimens of compound battened columns and relevant exposed base plate connections were constructed and tested under both vertical and horizontal forces.... Learn More
Steel buckling restrained braces (BRBs) for the retrofitting of existing reinforced concrete structures — I controventi ad instabilità impedita per il consolidamento di edifici in c.a. (CM 4/2011)
Evaluating the seismic capacities of existing reinforced concrete structures and selecting/designing retrofit solutions are important topics in engineering practice and research. Of... Learn More
Full-scale tests of “steel only” buckling-restrained braces — Sperimentazione al vero di controventi BRB “solo acciaio” (CM 4/2010)
Buckling-Restrained Braces (BRBs) are a relatively recent type, designed to prevent global compression buckling and therefore providing a very good seismic response.... Learn More
Seismic behaviour of steel residential buildings with cold formed steel/frame panel shear walls – Comportamento sismico di edifici residenziali in acciaio con pareti a taglio in profili formati a freddo e pannelli di rivestimento (CM 6/2005)
In recent years, cold formed steel housing has been growing in popularity in the USA and Australia. In Europe too, a number... Learn More
