Abstract:The construction industry faces the imperative of reconciling structural integrity with environmental sustainability, urging a nuanced exploration of the material choices and design parameters. This study investigated the seismic design and embodied carbon implications of varying concrete grades and column spacing in concrete moment frames. The primary objective was to evaluate the seismic design outcomes and embodied carbon of concrete moment frames, focusing on the variations introduced by different concrete… Show more
