The effects of soil–structure interaction on seismic responses of structures have always been
a challenging topic for earthquake and structural engineers. Over the years, different ways …

Connections are essential constituents in the behavior of a moment resisting frame. There
are many different detailing schemes for steel connections, most of which involve welding. In …

The study is aimed at clarifying the elastic and inelastic behaviour of irregular panel zones
(PZs) in a steel moment-resisting frame with circular hollow section (CHS) steel columns and …

Due to its many advantages, it is highly desirable to use box columns in steel structures.
However, despite the numerous advantages box columns offer, it is always difficult to …

The component method provided by Eurocode 3 for the evaluation of strength and stiffness
of beam-to-column joints is considered a very laborious procedure that is often difficult to …

In the near‐field earthquake, forward directivity effects cause long‐period pulse with a short
effective time and a large domain in the velocity time history. This issue increases the …

Near-field (NF) earthquakes have drawn considerable attention from earthquake and
structural engineers. In the field of earthquake engineering, numerous studies have …

The shear strength, shear distortion, failure mode, and energy absorption performance of
irregular circular and box-shaped tubular column panel zones (PZs) were investigated using …

Cruciform sections are an appropriate option for columns of orthogonal moment resisting
frames for equal bending strength and stiffness about two main axes and the implementation …

Panel zone is a part of a column web where surrounded by the continuity plates and the
column flanges. Panel zone plays a vital role in the connection behavior. Despite the …
