Major seismic events occurring around urban centres often cause widespread damage to the building stock. Engineers are then required to perform safety inspections of these buildings. This process may be time-consuming and can cause residents or busin

Acceleration-sensitive non-structural elements not only constitute a significant portion of a building’s component inventory, but also comprise components and systems that are indispensable to the operational continuity of essential facilities. In

The 2010-11 Canterbury Earthquake Sequence inflicted seismic losses worth more than $40B, which is about 25% of the GDP of New Zealand (as per 2011 data). More than 80% of these losses were insured, which comprised of more than $10B covered by the Ea

Bar buckling in RC structures is a commonly-observed failure mode that adversely affects their deformation capacity. To restrict bar buckling in ductile RC walls, design codes only emphasises on restricting the spacing of transverse reinforcement and

Use of high-strength steel bars (HSSB) in RC bridge piers reduces the amount of reinforcement or enhances bearing capacity of RC piers. However, the use of HSSB could come with reduction in the energy dissipation of RC member, which used to be consid

It is now widely recognized that the performance of non-structural elements is crucial to the performance of building systems during earthquakes. Field surveys and experimental studies have shown that light steel or timber framed plasterboard partiti
