Abstract:
Formulation of the problem. An urgent problem in construction is the development and introduction of new types of structural materials with improved characteristics: high strength, resistance to aggressive environments, frost resistance, etc. One of these materials is polymer concrete. Polymer concretes can be effectively used in modern construction in the manufacture of monolithic elements of structures, such as wall panels, slabs, columns of frame buildings. The purpose of the work is to study the dynamic characteristics of a multi-story building with a polymer concrete frame under the action of seismic loads. Method. Dynamic calculations were carried out using the finite element method in the LIRA−CAD software complex. Scientific novelty. New analytical formulas have been obtained, which allow an approximate estimation of the dimensions of structural elements of polymer concrete buildings. It was determined how changes in the properties of the frame material affect the weight of the building, the frequency of natural oscillations and displacement under the action of seismic loading. Practical significance. The results of the work make it possible to perform design calculations related to the dynamic properties of multi-story buildings with a polymer concrete frame. Conclusions. The use of polymer concrete for the construction of frames of multi-story buildings allows to reduce the cross-sectional dimensions of structural elements, reduce the weight and material consumption of buildings.

Abstract:
Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings with masonry infill walls are widely used in many countries all over the world. Although infills are considered as non-structural elements, they significantly change dynamic characteristics of RC frame structures during earthquake excitation. Recently, significant effort was spent on studying decoupled infills, which are isolated from the surrounding frame usually by adding a gap between frame and infill. In this case, the frame deformation does not activate infill wall, thus infills are not influencing the behaviour of the frame. This paper presents the results of the investigation of the behaviour of RC frame buildings with the INODIS system that decouples masonry infills from the surrounding frame. Effect of masonry infill decoupling was investigated first on the one-bay one-storey frame. This was used as a base for parametric study on the frames with more bays and storeys, as well as on the building level. Change of stiffness and dynamic characteristics was analysed as well as response under earthquake loading. Comparison with the bare frame and traditionally infilled frame was performed. The results show that behaviour of the decoupled infilled frames is similar to the bare frame, whereas behaviour of frames with traditional infills is significantly different and demands complex numerical models. This means that if adequate decoupling is applied, design of infilled frame buildings can be significantly simplified.

Abstract:
The performance of buildings during the January 26, 2001, earthquake in the Kachchh region of the province of Gujarat in India is discussed. A majority of the buildings in the earthquake region were either of load-bearing masonry or reinforced concrete framed structure. Most of the masonry buildings were built with random or coursed stone walls without any reinforcement and heavy clay tile roofing supported on wooden logs. A large number of such buildings collapsed leading to widespread destruction and loss of life. Many reinforced concrete frame buildings had infill masonry walls except in the first storey, which was reserved for parking. As would be expected, the open first storey suffered severe damage or collapsed. Observations of failures confirmed the vulnerability of some structural details that are known to lead to distress. However, an important observation to come out of the earthquake was that masonry infills, even when not tied to the surrounding frame, could save the building from collapse, provided such infills are uniformly distributed throughout the height so that abrupt changes in stiffness and strength did not occur.Key words: Bhuj earthquake, 2001; seismology of Kachchh; earthquake damage survey; performance of buildings; load bearing masonry; reinforced concrete frames; structural details vulnerable to earthquakes.

Abstract:
Given the fact that during the recent years the majority of buildings in Iran have been constructed either on steel or concrete frames, it is essential to investigate the environmental impacts of materials used in such constructions. For this purpose, two multi-story residential buildings in Tehran with a similar function have been considered in this study. One building was constructed with a steel frame and the other was constructed with a concrete frame. Using the life cycle assessment tool, a complete analysis of all the stages of a building’s life cycle from raw material acquisition to demolition and recycling of wastes was carried out. In this research, the environmental impacts included global warming potential in 100 years, acidification, eutrophication potential, human toxicity (cancer and non-cancer effects), resource depletion (water and mineral), climate change, fossil fuel consumption, air acidification and biotoxicity. It could be concluded from the results that the total pollution of the concrete frame in all eleven aforementioned impact factors was almost 219,000 tonnes higher than that of the steel frame. Moreover, based on the results, the concrete frame had poorer performance in all but one impact factor. With respect to global warming potential, the findings indicated there were two types of organic and non-organic gases that had an impact on global warming. Among non-organic emissions, CO2 had the biggest contribution to global warming potential, while among organic emissions, methane was the top contributor. These findings suggest the use of steel frames in the building industry in Iran to prevent further environmental damage; however, in the future, more research studies in this area are needed to completely investigate all aspects of decision on the choice of building frames, including economic and social aspects.

Abstract:
Precast concrete has been widely implemented in various construction projects due to shorter construction duration and consistent quality. In a previous study, Solberg et al. (2008) conducted an experiment on hybrid beam-column connections with Damage Avoidance Design concept to improve the seismic performance of precast concrete special moment frames. The objective of this study is to further evaluate the seismic performance of precast concrete special moment frames with the hybrid beam-column connections in five and ten story buildings. The evaluation was done through non-linear dynamic time history analysis using OpenSees. The analysis results show that precast concrete frame buildings exhibit insignificant difference in maximum interstory drift ratios and roof displacements as compared to conventional concrete frame buildings. However, with significantly smaller residual displacements which indicates less structural damage, precast concrete frame buildings could be preferred in the long run as they require less structural repairs after a strong earthquake event.

Abstract:
In order to increase plasticity during destruction along inclined sections and to protect against progressive collapse of reinforced concrete frames of multi-storey buildings, a variant of cross reinforcement of crossbars in such frames is proposed. The results of a numerical study of the reinforced concrete frame of a multi-storey building with a special impact in the form of an extraordinary hypothetical removal from the work of one of the columns are presented. The modeling of the deformation of the frame is carried out in three versions: the frame of the entire building in the rod setting, a fragment of the building in the column removal zone and a fragment of crossbars adjacent to the column being removed using volumetric finite elements. The obtained results showed the effectiveness of the proposed variant of cross-reinforcement of crossbars to protect a multi-storey frame building from progressive collapse, as well as the effectiveness of using the proposed variant of three-level models for calculating the parameters of static-dynamic deformation of the carcasses of multi-storey buildings under the considered special impacts.

Abstract:
In the UK, steel-framed buildings with precast concrete floors are a common form of multistorey building. Such structures may be used for car parking, for commercial, retail or residential property developments, and for public buildings, such as schools and hospitals. This hybrid form of construction has many benefits, including the provision of an early, secure and broad platform from which subsequent site activities can be undertaken. This article is the first in a series of three addressing aspects of designing steel-framed buildings with precast concrete floors. The first article describes aspects of the slab design of precast prestressed concrete planks which will be installed in a steel frame.

Abstract:
Buildings sited on soft soils are sometimes subjected to tremors due to earthquakes occurring some 400 to 700 kilometers away as a result of the amplifying effect of soft soils on low-frequency, long-distance waves. This study focuses on the seismic vulnerability of existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in Singapore that are designed primarily for gravity loads, and examines the use of externally bonded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) systems in retrofitting these buildings to resist lateral forces due to seismic action. Two case studies were considered: (1) a four-story frame building, representing typical low-rise buildings; and (2) a 25-story shear wall-frame building, representing typical high-rise buildings. Pushover tests were carried out correspondingly on 1/2-scale sub-frames and 1/5-scale shear walls. The one-and-a-half bay, two-storey frame specimens represent the critical part of the low-rise building while the I-shaped wall specimens represent the lower critical 2.6 stories of the high-rise building. Test results revealed a strong column–weak beam failure mechanism for both the un-retrofitted and retrofitted frames. The retrofitted frame was 30 percent higher in ultimate strength but 12 percent lesser in ultimate drift ratio compared to the un-retrofitted frame. For the wall specimens, sudden failure of the un-retrofitted shear wall was observed at the base of the side walls due to shear. Failure of the retrofitted wall was however more ductile with FRP debonding, followed by concrete crushing and FRP rupture at the compressive base of the side wall. The ultimate load capacity and lateral displacement of the retrofitted wall increased respectively by 45 and 66 percent.

Abstract:
Reinforced concrete buildings with shearwalls are very efficient to resist earthquake disturbances. In general, reinforced concrete frames are governed by flexure and low-rise shearwalls are governed by shear. If a structure includes both frames and shearwalls, it is generally governed by shearwalls. However, the ductility of ordinary reinforced concrete framed shearwalls is very limited. The experiments on framed shearwalls made of corrugated steel was recently reported. It was found that the ductility of framed shearwalls can be greatly improved if the thickness of the corrugated steel wall is appropriate to the surrounding reinforced concrete frame. If the thickness of the corrugated steel wall is too large when compared to the surrounding frame, the ductility will be reduced. It is shown in this paper that the fiber-reinforced plastic composites can be used to strengthen the critical regions of the reinforced concrete frames, so that the seismic behavior (including ductility and energy dissipation capability) is greatly improved.

Abstract:
The consulting firm Atkins has developed a tool to help constructers plan urban areas but the tool is lacking data about embodied carbon in Sweden. The embodied carbon is the total carbon dioxide equivalents that are emitted from the material used in constructing a residential building as well as the energy used at the construction site and during demolition. In this thesis, the embodied carbon for a concrete framed building and a wooden framed building is calculated and presented. The mapping of embodied carbon for the two different framed buildings is done with a life cycle assessment perspective. In order to structure the studied system, the life cycle of the buildings is divided into three stages. The first stage includes data and calculations about the extraction and manufacturing of the most common building materials as well as the transportation to construction site. Stage 2 presents information about theon-site construction which includes, among other things, use of machines for constructing a residential building. In the third stage, data regarding demolition and end of life management are presented and calculated. All these three stages are added and a value for total embodied carbon for concrete framed residential buildings and wooden framed ones is presented in the result. The final result shows that the studied concrete framed residential building contains more embodied carbon than the wooden framed one. Further, stage 1 represents the largest part of embodied carbon, 87% for the concrete frame and 84% for the wooden frame, and stage 2 represents a very small part for both types of buildings, 1% for the concrete frame and 2% for the wooden fame.

Abstract:
Seismic isolation systems are widely used to protect reinforced concrete (RC) structures against the effects of strong ground motions. After a magnitude 6.6 earthquake, the outpatient building of Lushan People’s hospital in China remained in good condition due to the seismic isolation technology, while the non-isolated older outpatient building nearby experienced major damage. The building provides a good opportunity to study and assess the contribution of isolation systems to seismic performance of RC structures. In the current research project, the isolated outpatient building was modelled and analyzed using computer software SAP2000. The post-yield behaviour of the structure was modelled by assigning multi-linear plastic links to frame objects. The rubber isolators were represented by rubber isolator link elements, assigned as a single joint element between the ground and the superstructure. The isolated structure was subjected to four earthquake records with increasing intensity. The performances of the isolated structure were compared with those of the fixed-base structures in terms of lateral inter-storey drifts, peak absolute floor accelerations, and residual drifts. The laminated rubber bearings, the high damping isolation devices, composed of rubber bearings and viscous dampers, and the hybrid isolation system of rubber bearings and friction pendulum bearings were analysed. The effectiveness of the three base isolation systems considered in enhancing structural performance was investigated. The results show the level of improvement attained in seismic response by each system. They also illustrate that the rubber bearings coupled with friction pendulum bearings produce the best drift control without causing excessive horizontal displacements at the base level and without adversely affecting floor accelerations.

Abstract:
The emphasis on seismic design and assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure has shifted from force-based to performance-based design and assessment to accommodate strength and ductility for required performance of building. RC frame structure may suffer different levels of damage under seismic-induced ground motions, with potentials for formation of hinges in structural elements, depending on the level of stringency in design. Thus it is required to monitor the seismic behaviour and performance of buildings, which depend on the structural system, year of construction and the level of irregularities in the structural system. It is the objective of the current research project to assess seismic performance of RC frame buildings in Canada, while developing fragility curves as analytical tools for such assessment. This was done through dynamic inelastic analysis by modelling selected building structures and using PERFORM-3D as analysis software, while employing incremental dynamic analysis to generate performance data under incrementally increasing seismic intensity of selected earthquake records. The results lead to probabilistic tools to assess the performance of buildings designed following the National Building Code of Canada in different years of construction with and without irregularities. The research consists of three phases; i) regular buildings designed after 1975, ii) regular buildings designed prior to 1975, and iii) irregular buildings designed prior to 1975. The latter two phases address older buildings prior to the development of modern seismic building codes. All three phases were carried out by selecting and designing buildings in Ottawa, representing the seismic region in eastern Canada, as well as buildings in Vancouver, representing the seismic region in western Canada. Buildings had three heights (2; 5; and 10-stories) to cover a wide range of building periods encountered in practice. The resulting fragility curves indicated that the older buildings showed higher probabilities of exceeding life safety and/or collapse prevention performance levels. Newer buildings showed higher probabilities of exceeding target performance levels in western Canada than those located in the east.

Abstract:
This study is intended to contribute to the understanding of the torsional behaviour of buildings subjected to blast loading. The scope of the investigation involves a 10-storey symmetrical reinforced concrete frame structure designed in accordance with CSA Standard A23.3 (2004), and the provisions of the National Building Code of Canada (2005). The building was analyzed under different magnitudes of explosions, triggered at different distances and location such that the building would be subjected to lateral impulsive forces causing torsion. Elastic dynamic time-history analyses were conducted using software ETABS under impulsive forcing functions caused by the detonations of 100 kg, 200 kg, 300 kg, 500 kg, and 1000 kg TNT at distances of 5 m, 10 m, and 20 m from the building, at three different eccentricities within the plane of building floor to create torsional eccentricities relative to the centre of rigidity. The performance of structure was evaluated by considering interstorey drift, floor rotations, lateral displacements, and P-M capacity/demand ratios for columns. The results indicate that the perimeter columns, especially the corner columns are affected most when the building is subjected to blast loadings. The torsional building response increases with the amount of TNT. It is related to the location of the explosion relative to the building, and increases with torsional eccentricity. On the other hand, the torsional response decreases with distance from explosion to building. Maximum interstorey drifts are closely related to the eccentricity of blast loads. This effect can be neglected in practical applications for small size charges and distant explosions. For example, an explosion caused by less than 500 kg TNT at distances of 20 m and longer would produce very small interstorey drifts and the effects of the eccentricity of blast loads could be neglected in such buildings.

Abstract:
AbstractSteel and composite shear wall systems are used for vertical stabilisation of buildings and have been widely investigated in recent decades. Such systems provide excellent shear strength and ductility while allowing material savings due to optimal material usage and an increase in construction speed. A double-skin cold-formed steel shear wall filled with concrete is an innovative composite shear wall that is composed of cold-formed corrugated steel sheets and intermediate fasteners filled with concrete which is in turn bounded by a steel frame. Steel sheets are connected onto a concrete core with the help of intermediate fasteners behaving as shear connectors forming a sandwich Steel–Concrete–Steel panel. Compared to reinforced concrete shear walls, this type of wall has enhanced strength and ductility due to steel confinement while allowing for a reduction in construction time. The numerical simulation of double-skin cold-formed steel shear walls filled with concrete has been studied in this paper. The numerical parametric simulations are conducted in ABAQUS/CAE, where the influence of steel sheet thicknesses, concrete strength and the arrangement and diameter of the shear connectors were analysed. The wall shear capacities for all parameters were compared and the results provide suggestions for future investigations.

Abstract:
In general, buildings can be classified into Engineering buildings and Non-engineering buildings. Non-engineering building is a simple building such as a residential house that does not carry out structural calculations. Non-engineering buildings are very susceptible to lateral loads such as earthquakes which can cause collapse. Therefore, research is carried out in the form of laboratory tests and numerical tests for reinforced concrete frames filled with prefabricated cellular lightweight concrete (CLC). In this study, two specimens were used, namely an empty frame and a reinforced concrete frame filled with prefabricated CLC. In the laboratory test, it was analyzed by means of a cyclic load test, while in the numerical test the first specimen was made an open frame model and the second infill wall was made as an equivalent diagonal strut. Both of these models were analyzed using the SAP 2000 application version 22 by applying pushovers. The results showed that there were differences in laboratory tests and numerical tests. Therefore, a correction value for the numerical test results is needed to approach the value of the numerical test results.

Abstract:
<p>Timber is one of the few renewable materials that improves its structural properties when combined with concrete. The composite of timber and concrete increase stiffness and fire protection, unlike timber when used alone. In contrast to concrete structures, timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures reduce the carbon footprint and the specific weight of a building. At the Chair of Hybrid Structures - Structural Concrete of BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg a moment-resistant TCC joint was developed for multi-story frames, which can be used as a structural system for high-rise buildings. Facts like a modular construction, a fast assembly and a plug-in connection were aspects that shaped the development. A high rotational stiffness and load-bearing at the composite joint was also achieved using high strength beech laminated veneer lumber (LVL).</p><p>The TCC frame works on its own and in combination with other bracing systems. Initial investigations on the load-bearing behavior were carried out using numerical analysis followed by experiments on real-sized joints in further studies. First results will be presented in this paper. The developed TCC joint as part of structural systems offers a high variability and can thus contribute to tomorrow’s sustainable vertical growth of cities.</p>

Abstract:
<p>In modern projects, performance based seismic design (PBD) procedures are often used to design buildings in areas of high seismic activity that meet defined performance objectives instead of prescriptive building code requirements or have certain features and configurations that are not normally permitted by the building codes. Evaluating buildings with PBD is computationally intensive and time-consuming, resulting in little opportunity for iteration during the design development phase. This paper illustrates how rigorous use of PBD can result in less expensive and more sustainable buildings that meet the intent of building codes with a higher degree of precision than typical code-compliant designs.</p><p>Several examples show the relative cost of a building designed using PBD procedures compared with that of a conventional code-based design. The first example compares a PBD concrete core-only system with a code- based dual system comprising concrete core walls and moment frames. The second example presents direct benefit resulting from PBD, reducing vertical and confining steel reinforcing in concrete wall buildings. The third example shows PBD reducing column and foundation demands in structural steel braced frame buildings. Project stakeholders can use the presented data to evaluate the economic viability of PBD for their structures.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
This research project aims to document the spread of the biodegradation in wood frame buildings and, more specifically, to investigate the aggravating impact of the presence of the rotting fungus Serpula lacrymans in wood-based materials on the hygrothermal performance of wood-framed wall and floor assemblies. The proposed methodology is to calibrate a hygrothermal model of wood contaminated by varying stages of S. lacrymans. The S. lacrymans has a particular ability compared to other fungi in that it can move its water source to seek nutrients. Hyphen cords have been seen on brick and concrete elements, as a bypass mean to reach wood. Thus, this fungus is modelled with two means: modified hygrothermal properties and addition of parallel paths for moisture transfer in the assemblies. To develop these, characterizing healthy and contaminated wood is necessary to be used as input in the models. The simulations are performed for residential building envelope assemblies under current and future climatic conditions.

Abstract:
This technical report documents the research and development (R&D) study in support of the development of a combined Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) methodology that accommodates both geotechnical and structural design limit states for design of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) batter pile-founded, reinforced concrete flood walls. Development of the required reliability and corresponding LRFD procedures has been progressing slowly in the geotechnical topic area as compared to those for structural limit state considerations, and therefore this has been the focus of this first-phase R&D effort. This R&D effort extends reliability procedures developed for other non-USACE structural systems, primarily bridges and buildings, for use in the design of batter pile-founded USACE flood walls. Because the foundation system includes batter piles under flood loading, the design procedure involves frame analysis with significant soil structure interaction. Three example batter pile-founded T-Wall flood structures on three different rivers have been examined considering 10 geotechnical and structural limit states. Numerical procedures have been extended to develop precise multiple limit state Reliability calculations and for complete LRFD analysis of the example batter pile-founded, T-Wall reinforced concrete, flood walls.

Abstract:
The Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) is a multi-institutional research and education center with headquarters at the University of California, Berkeley. PEER’s mission is to develop, validate, and disseminate performance-based seismic design technologies for buildings and infrastructure to meet the diverse economic and safety needs of owners and society. The year 2016 began with a change of leadership at PEER. On January 1, Professor Khalid Mosalam became the new PEER Director as Professor Stephen Mahin completed his 6- year term. Also in early 2016, Dr. Yousef Bozorgnia stepped down from the position of Executive Director, after serving as a key member of PEER’s management team for over 12 years. Several accomplishments of the Center during the leadership of Director Mahin were recounted during the PEER Annual Meeting on January 28–29, 2016. This meeting also set the course of the Center with several new thrust areas identified for future research. During the past year, PEER has continued its track record of multi-institutional research with several multi-year Mega-Projects. The PEER Tall Buildings Initiative (TBI) was recently expanded to include assessment of the seismic performance of existing tall buildings. The California Earthquake Authority (CEA) awarded a $3.4 million, 3.5-year research contract to PEER to investigate the seismic performance of wood-frame homes with cripple walls. The project will directly contribute to the improvement of seismic resiliency of California’s housing stock. Former Director Mahin will lead a broad effort for computational modeling and simulation (SimCenter) of the effects of natural hazards on the built environment. Supported by a 5-year, $10.9-million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the SimCenter is part of the Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure (NHERI) initiative, a distributed, multi-user national facility that will provide natural hazards engineers with access to research infrastructure (earthquake and wind engineering experimental facilities, cyberinfrastructure, computational modeling and simulation tools, and research data), coupled with education and community outreach activities. In addition to the Mega Projects, PEER researchers were involved in a wide range of research activities in the areas of geohazards, tsunami, and the built environment focusing on the earthquake performance of old and new reinforced concrete and steel structures, tall buildings, and bridges including rapid bridge construction. As part of its mission, PEER participated in a wide range of education and outreach activities, including a summer internship program, seminars, OpenSees days, and participation in several national and international conferences. The Center became an active board member of two prominent international organizations, namely GADRI (Global Alliance of Disaster Research Institutes) and ILEE (International Laboratory of Earthquake Engineering). PEER researchers and projects were recognized with awards from several organizations. Going forward, PEER aims to improve the profile and external exposure of the Center globally, strengthen the Business-Industry-Partnership (BIP) program, engage the Institutional Board (IB) and the Industry Advisory Board (IAB) to identify new areas of research, and explore new funding opportunities.

PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE RESISTANCE OF STEEL FRAMED BUILDINGS UNDER EXTREME EVENTS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, September 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2021.17.3.10.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper presents experimental and theoretical investigations on progressive collapse behavior of steel framed structures subjected to an extreme load such as fire, blast and impact. A new capacity-based index is proposed to quantify robustness of structures. An energy-based theoretical model is also proposed to quantify the effect of concrete slabs on collapse resistance of structures. The experimental results show that the dynamic amplification factors of frames subject to impact or blast are much less than the conventional value of 2.0. The collapse process of frames in fire can be either static or dynamic depending on the restraint conditions and load levels. It is necessary to account for the failure time and residual strength of blast-exposed columns for assessing the collapse resistance of structures subject to explosion. Two collapse modes of steel frames under blast or impact are found: connection-induced collapse mode and column-induced collapse mode. In case of fire, a frame may collapse due to either column buckling or pulling-in effect of beams. The energy dissipation from elongation of slab reinforcement and additional resultant moment greatly contribute to the collapse resistance of structures.

RESEARCH ON SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF L-SHAPED CONCRETE-FILLED STEEL TUBES COLUMN FRAME-BUCKLING RESTRAINED STEEL PLATE SHEAR WALLS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, September 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2023.19.3.8.

Full text
Abstract:
Frame buckling restrained steel plate shear walls (BRSPSWs) have been widely used in high-rise residential buildings. L-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns were used in the frame in this research to investigate the impact of the frame members type in the BRSPSWs system. A nonlinear finite element model (NFEM) was generated to examine the seismic performance of BRSPSWs with various types of connections to the frame elements. The NFEM results were compared to test results to make them more reliable, and the comparison showed that the NFEM can predict the seismic behavior of BRSPSWs. Then based on the validated NFEM results, several parameters were analyzed in parametric studies to assess their impact on the performance of BRSPSWs, including leg's length, column's width-to-thickness, axial compression ratio, and height-to-thickness of the steel plate, concrete panel's thickness, and bolt arrangement. The effect of these parameters on lateral resistance and yield stiffness was reported and discussed. A theoretical model has also been proposed based on modified plate-frame interaction (MPFI) to calculate the yield lateral resistance of BRSPSWs. The outcomes of MPFI were validated through testing and NFEM findings, and the comparison revealed reasonable concurrence.
