EFFECT OF VOID RATIO AND INNER TUBE GEOMETRY ON CFDST BENDING BEHAVIOR

Concrete-filled steel tubes (CFST) and concrete-filled double steel tubes (CFDST) have proven to be excellent composite structural elements. However, available literature has not sufficiently addressed the bending performance of concrete-filled double steel tubes. The current study aims to explore the bending performan...

Seismic Performance Evaluation of Mid-Rise RC Buildings Considering Soil-Structure Interaction and Different Foundations Rigidities

Seismic Performance Evaluation of Mid-Rise RC Buildings Considering Soil–Structure Interaction and Foundation Effects

This study evaluates the seismic performance of an existing seven-story reinforced concrete parking garage (85 m × 50 m plan) that was not originally designed for seismic loads. The structure, featuring flat slabs, ordinary shear walls, and a circular vehicular ramp, is currently supported on bearing piles. Three-dimen...
