Abstract:In the last years, structural retrofit solutions for RC buildings have been studied and developed to meet the urgent need to renovate the existing building stock under multiple perspectives: seismic safety, architectural and comfort renovation, and thermal envelope enhancement. Cold-formed steel (CFS) panels could be used for this purpose among other strengthening solutions. This paper investigates the behavior of CFS panels used as seismic strengthening for existing RC buildings. Reduced complexity finite ele… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
