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...

Development of rapid visual screening tool for seismic evaluation of wood-frame dwellings

Creator:

Lucksiri, Kraisorn

Abstract:

During the past several decades, earthquakes have caused extensive damage to buildings, including wood-frame, single-family dwellings, in the United States. In order to mitigate future losses, existing buildings in earthquake prone areas should be evaluated for their seismic safety. This is also an important issue for buildings in Oregon due...
