Retrofit of RC joints with FRP composites Open
The exterior and corner beam-column joints are among the weakest members of RC (reinforced concrete) frames in terms of seismic resistance. Poor seismic performance of inadequately detailed exterior/corner joints can lead to total or parti…
The Modified Post-earthquake Damage Assessment Methodology for TCIP (TCIP-DAM-2020) Open
Post-Earthquake damage assessment has always been one of the major challenges that both engineers and authorities face after disastrous earthquakes all around the world. Considering the number of buildings in need of inspection and the ins…
