  • Advancements Toward the Simulation of Steel Structures in Fire Using OpenSees

    Creator:
    Gordon, James A.
    Abstract:
    Since the collapse of World Trade Center building number seven (WTC7), significant research has been done to understand the behavior of steel structures in fire and enable engineers to account for the behavior of steel framing systems exposed to fire during design. Despite these efforts, there are still significant barriers...

  • Experimental Testing of Glue-Laminated Beam-to-Column Connections

    Creator:
    Madland, Haley
    Abstract:
    The behavior of mass timber beam-to-column connections under seismic loading is not yet well understood. Mass timber beam-to-column connections must have the ability to maintain load-carrying capacity despite the deformations that will be imposed on all components of the building during seismic events. This behavior is called deformation compatibility. The...
