The innovative concept of geotechnical seismic isolation (GSI) system with the use of a
continuous layer of low-modulus materials, such as rubber-soil mixtures (RSM), surrounding …

Exterior beam-column joint is typically the weakest link in a limited-ductile RC frame
structure. The use of diagonal haunch element has been considered as a desirable seismic …

In regions of low-to-moderate seismicity where representative strong motion data is lacking,
the modelling of seismic hazard relies on the use of seismological models. This paper …

A new site classification system and site coefficients based on local site conditions in Korea
were developed and implemented as a part of minimum design load requirements for …

Collapse prevention is the primary objective of earthquake-resistant design of structures;
hence, the probability of collapse should be taken as a crucial performance indicator for risk …

Code response spectrum models, which are used widely in the earthquake-resistant design
of buildings, are simple to apply but they do not necessarily represent the real behavior of an …

The aim of this paper is to estimate the response spectra for moderate seismic area in
