Abstract Replacing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with industrial waste like Ground
Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) has been proven to have remarkable benefits …

In the recent decades, researchers have shown an increased interest in the reusing recycled
concrete aggregate generated by buildings' demolitions because of the undeniable …

Structural buildings such as steel and reinforced concrete frames usually include doors and
windows on the front or back facades, interior to the open areas. This; should be arranged to …

Corrugated thin steel plates are common elements to transfer lateral forces to the structural
systems. These plates can be placed horizontally as diaphragms or vertically as shear walls …

In this study, two formulations have been suggested for the calculation of the shear capacity
of stiffened steel plate shear wall (SSPSW) containing two rectangular openings by …

In this study, the interaction relationship and seismic performance efficiency of composite
shear walls were investigated. A previous experiment was reviewed to understand the …

Preventing damages and reducing the consequences of natural disasters such as
earthquakes are nowadays considered as the most important considerations in improving …

The cold-formed steel (CFS) buckling-restrained steel plate shear walls (BRSPSW) with
beam-connected only have the characteristics of avoiding additional force on the frame …

In this paper, a new steel plate shear wall with a reduced web section beam is proposed.
The proposed model, including a middle link beam with elongated circle opening, offers …

Laboratory experiments were conducted to define the response to earthquake loading of the
exposed column-base connections common in low-rise steel frame structures. Six full-scale …
