Reliability Analysis of Redundant Ductile Structural Systems
… may be measured realistically in terms of the probability of failure. The purpose of this study is to develop a practical method for determining the point estimate of the collapse probability of ductile structural systems, particularly, plastic frameworks and trusses.

Enhanced Nonlinear Truss Model for Capturing Combined Earthquake and Fire Effects in RC Structures
… fires can negatively affect the safety and collapse probability of Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures. At present, there has been no systematic effort to assess the performance of RC structures for combined earthquake and fire effects. Developing appropriate guidelines for this scenario …

Influence of the Gravity System on the Seismic Performance of Special Steel Moment Frames
… of the gravity load resisting system on the collapse performance of Special Steel Moment Frames (SMFs). The influence was quantified using the FEMA P-695 methodology. The buildings used for this study were a 2-, 4- and 8-story SMFs taken from the ATC76-1 project where their collapse …

Investigation of Modular Cross-Laminated Timber Rocking Walls and Rocking Wall -- Light-Frame Shear Wall Dual Systems for Seismic Resilience
… variability in predicting wall toe damage probability. Results demonstrated that LSL toe reinforcement significantly reduces wall toe damage probability, particularly in low-rise buildings where local crushing may govern design. Fragility curves developed in this study provide generalizable …

Stochastic prediction of collapse of building structures under seismic excitations
… acceptably small likelihood of structural collapse. Therefore, accurate estimate of collapse likelihood of buildings under seismic excitations has recently become critical in efforts to promote hazard-resilience of the society, especially in developing national building codes, regional …
