Performance of RC Bridge Columns under Cyclic Combined Loading including Torsion
… stiffness, deformation and progression of damage, and cause complex failure modes and in turn influence the overall behavior of the bridge system. This study performed experimental and analytical studies in order to investigate the performance of RC bridge columns under cyclic combined …

Seismic Performance of Anchored Brick Veneer
… walls; and, overall wall geometric variations. Damage limit states for single-story residential brick veneer wall systems were established from the experimental and analytical studies as a function of tensile failure of key tie connections, and the seismic fragility of this form of construction …

Seismic behavior and design of integral abutment bridges in southern Illinois
… abutment bridges (IABs) throughout the United States has led to numerous studies concerning their behavior when subjected to a variety of loads. The seismic behavior of IABs is of particular interest to regions such as southern Illinois, where proximity to the New Madrid Seismic Zone may create …

Impact of cross section, web reinforcement and load history on the seismic performance of slender concrete walls
… load history the C-shaped walls have a similar damage progression leading to a buckling-rupture failure and a nearly identical strong-axis load-deformation response up to the peak flexural strength. However, bi-directionally loaded walls exhibit earlier onset of critical damage limit states and …

Courbes de fragilité pour les ponts au Québec tenant compte du sol de fondation
Les courbes de fragilité sont un outil très utile pour l’évaluation du risque sismique des ponts. Une courbe de fragilité représente la probabilité qu'une structure soit endommagée au-delà d'un état d'endommagement donné pour différents niveaux de tremblement de terre. Étant donné que plus de la …
