Abstract Structure collapse, on the other hand, is a very complicated phenomenon involving
considerable nonlinearity and a variety of mechanical interactions. It should be thoroughly …

Base confinement system for a structure is acquainted to decouple the building structure
from possible movement incited by the movement of the seismic tremor, keeping the building …

Most of the buildings are affected during the earthquake, as they are designed IS 456: 2000

Abstract Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) plays a crucial role in the construction of high-
rise buildings, particularly in enhancing their resistance to seismic activities. To achieve this …

Structures resting on slopes are not the same as those resting on plain grounds. These
structures will be asymmetric and their stiffness and mass will vary along both horizontal as …

In modern tall buildings, vertical members such as shear walls and columns are subjected to
differential shortening continuously at construction stage and at installation time. In case of …
