Orthogonal steel exoskeleton for low impact and rapid execution retrofitting of existing buildings: State-of-the-art and structural concept

G Di Lorenzo, A Prota - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
The use of exoskeletons, intended as additive structures applied in a widespread way
externally to the building to be protected, constitutes a valid alternative to common …

Influence of constructional imperfections on the cyclic response of lap shear riveted connections

A Milone - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2023 - pubs.aip.org

Seismic assessment and retrofitting of a non-conforming CBF structure

A Milone - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Concentrically Braced Frames (CBF) represent one of the most common structural
typologies adopted for steel buildings. Although new CBF structures can assure excellent …

An analytical model for the assessment of the tensile behavior of wire strands affected by pitting corrosion

A Milone - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
High-strength steel (HSS) wire strands are widely used in bridge engineering for the
realization of deck support systems. As bridges are usually exposed to aggressive …

Seismic assessment and upgrading of existing non-conforming multi-storey steel buildings: A case study

R Tartaglia - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
