This study aims to evaluate the performance of a steel storage pallet racking system
equipped with a novel seismic isolation system, which is effective along the cross-aisle …

This paper focuses on an innovative system for mitigating seismic actions on industrial steel
racking, called Load-Level Isolation System (LLIS). It consists of placing isolators directly …

Steel storage racks are structures commonly used by all industries in Chile; nevertheless,
due the seismic hazard in the country and its configurations, these structures are highly …

Past Italian earthquakes revealed the high seismic vulnerability of steel pallet racks
designed for gravity loads only, which are still the most widespread industrial storage …

Recent Italian earthquakes have shown the high seismic vulnerability of pallet racking
systems. In the down-aisle direction and in the absence of bracing systems, these structures …

With a view to improving the ease of construction, a new type of outer sleeve assembly
(OSA) between steel beam and column has been developed. The characteristics of stress …

ABSTRACT A shake table test using a full-scale 2-story steel moment frame was conducted
to investigate the peak floor acceleration (PFA) and the peak component acceleration (PCA) …

During some earthquakes, the cable tray system in buildings suffered severe damage and
even fell, which usually resulted from the failure of main to sub beam joints (MSBJs) …

The bolt–column (BC) joint has enough bending stiffness satisfying large-span single-layer
reticulated shell structure well. The hysteretic behavior of BC joints under different in-plane …

Direct displacement-based seismic design has been proposed for pallet-type steel storage
racks. Damping models are developed in this study for pallet-type steel storage racks in the …
