Hybridized framing to modify load paths and enhance wood shearwall performance

Creator:: Bultena, Sarah M.
Abstract:: Heavy timber framing relies primarily on bracing to withstand lateral loads due to earthquakes and wind events. Bracing configurations in heavy timber framed buildings vary widely and include cross bracing, knee bracing, and other geometries. Many heavy timber frames constructed during colonial American times are still standing, exceeding the expected...

Numerical assessment of steel plate shear wall with coupling (SPSW-WC) system design procedure

Creator:: Li, Wennan
Abstract:: The Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) system, is an innovative seismic lateral force resistant system, which has experienced increased use over the last three decades. The SPSW system is composed of boundary elements which anchor web plates that develop diagonal tension fields. A number of SPSW buildings have been built...

Fluid Structure Interaction for Cascading Seismic and Tsunami Events using Real-Time Hybrid Simulation

Creator:: Neumann, Christopher R.
Abstract:: While real-time hybrid simulation has been utilized for structures subjected to seismic events for decades, its use in fluid-structure interaction problems is still a novel endeavor. Gathering data for cascading seismic and tsunami events is difficult due to space constraints in existing experimental facilities, complications regarding the application of scaling...

Examination of lateral stiffness and strength of pitched residential roof diaphragms with implications for seismic design.

Creator:: Kirkham, William J.
Abstract:: There are about 80 million single-family dwellings (SFD) in the United States, predominantly of wood-frame construction. Of these, 68% are owner occupied. A home is typically the largest single investment of a family, and is often not covered by earthquake insurance, even where it is available. Of all SFD in...

Investigation of the behavior of diagonally cracked full-scale CRC deck-girders injected with epoxy resin and subjected to axial tension

Creator:: Smith, Matthew T. (Matthew Todd)
Abstract:: Article 1: Behavior of Epoxy Injected Diagonally Cracked Full-Scale CRC Deck-Girders. Many cast-in place reinforced concrete deck-girder bridges (RCDG) remain in the national inventory and exhibit diagonal cracking. Epoxy injection has been in use for several decades as a method for sealing diagonal cracks, but the effects on girder behavior...

Testing and Modeling of a Cross-Laminated Timber Pier-and-Spandrel Seismic Retrofit Solution for Unreinforced Masonry Buildings

Creator:: Engleson, Renee M.
Abstract:: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an attractive building material because it is renewable, promotes fast installation, and possesses a high strength-to-weight ratio. The use of CLT in seismic applications has become increasingly common with the development of post-tensioned CLT rocking wall lateral force resisting systems (LFRS). The CLT pier-and-spandrel system designed,...

Probabilistic Multi-hazard Earthquake-Tsunami Structural Risk Assessment Framework

Creator:: Alam, Mohammad Shafiqual
Abstract:: Catastrophic earthquake and tsunami events that resulted in significant loss of life and property over the past two decades have raised the global awareness regarding the need to understand the response of communities and their built environment to multi-hazard extreme events. In recognition to this impending threat to the coastal...

Coastal Soil and Structure Behavior during Earthquake-Tsunami Multi-Hazards

Creator:: Qiu, Yingqing
Abstract:: Coastal multi-hazards, i.e., earthquakes followed by tsunamis, induce severe damage to coastal infrastructure. The multi-hazards can cause soil liquefaction, which is one of the major concerns for evaluating sediments transport potential and structure failure mechanisms. The objectives for this work is threefold. First, to build and validate a soil numerical...

A numerical wave tank based on coupled potential flow-viscous flow model

Creator:: Zhang, Yi
Abstract:: In this study, a coupled potential flow-viscous flow model is used for numerical wave tank simulation. The solver satisfies all the requirements for such a simulation environment. The coupling scheme is based on a non-overlapping heterogeneous domain decomposition method. In this method, the flow domain consists of two subdomains. In...

Scale effects on reinforced concrete beams strengthened for shear with discrete externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer U-wraps

Creator:: Dawson, Matthew Ryan
Abstract:: Current ACI design provisions for shear in reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) U-wraps may not adequately account for the effect of scale. This paper describes tests of 6 geometrically scaled beams to identify possible scale effects of such beams. Results indicated that effective...
