Abstract:Hybrid steel and concrete seismic‐resistant systems made by steel frames with reinforced concrete infill walls (SRCWs) have potential advantages over structural solutions made only by steel or reinforced concrete (RC). In fact, the high initial stiffness of concrete is useful to minimize the damage of non‐structural elements under frequent (low to moderate) earthquakes while the ductility and dissipative capacity of the steel allow good performances under rare (high‐intensity) events. Eurocode 8 considers SRCW… Show more
