Storey-based stability of multi-storey steel semi-braced and unbraced frames with semi-rigid connections
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2021-01)A simplified method is proposed for evaluating the stability of multi-storey, steel semi-braced and unbraced frames with semi-rigid connections. The proposed method decomposes a frame into individual storeys and evaluates ... -
Storey-based stability of steel frames subjected to post-earthquake fire
(Fire Technology, 2020-02)Post-earthquake fires occur after earthquakes and have commonly been encountered throughout history. The fires are particularly deadly and threaten the stability of buildings as possible structural damages caused by seismic ... -
The Storey-Based Stability of Steel Frames Subjected to Variable Gravity and Fire Loading
(University of Waterloo, 2020-02-20)The concept of storey-based stability has been developed over the past several decades, and includes powerful methods to holistically assess the structural integrity of unbraced and semi-braced steel frames. Recently, it ... -
Storey-based stability of unbraced steel frames under piece-linear temperature distributions
(Elsevier, 2019-05-21)There are many cases where the elastic modulus of a structural member will vary longitudinally, such as when a steel column is heated by fire. In such a case, the fire can compromise the integrity of the structural frame. ...
