Precast reinforcement concrete (RC) structures have attracted increasing attention in the global construction industry. They offer advantages such as reduced construction time, improved quality, and ...

School of Civil Engineering, Lanzhou University of Technology, Lanzhou, China In this study, a finite element (FE) analysis of a composite joint with the concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) column ...

The widespread brittle failure of welded beam-to-column connections caused by the 1994 Northridge and 1995 Kobe earthquakes highlighted the need for retrofitting measures effective in reducing the ...

Precast dry connected frame systems are faster to construct with less erection efforts. These frame systems are considered non-emulate frame systems. The lateral load behaviour of these connections ...

The high-strength bolted end plate connection is widely used in the construction industry with its green environmental protection and excellent seismic performance. The joints of the joints are ...

ABSTRACT: In most framed structures anticipated deformations in accordance with current codes fall into acceptable limit states, whereas they go through substantial residual deformations in the ...
