Abstract:
Liquid storage tanks generally possess lower energy-dissipating capacity than conventional buildings. During lateral seismic excitation, tanks are subjected to hydrodynamic forces. These two aspects are recognized by most seismic codes on liquid storage tanks and, accordingly, provisions specify higher seismic forces than buildings and require modeling of hydrodynamic forces in analysis. In this paper, provisions of ten seismic codes on tanks are reviewed and compared. This review has revealed that there are significant differences among these codes on design seismic forces for various types o

Abstract:
<em>This study demonstrates the importance of accounting for seismic forces in the design of underground water tanks. The analysis reveals that when seismic forces are considered, the moments in the walls along both the X and Y axes at the base exceed those in the walls of existing tanks. Although soil conditions do not significantly influence the design forces, the impact of seismic activity is evident in the increased shear forces, which necessitate the redesign of wall thickness. Additionally, considering the soil-structure interaction (SSI) effect with elastic springs at the base results i

The objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of seismic interaction between twin adjacent tunnels on internal forces. A 2D numerical analysis was conducted, considering position, distance, and seismic components as key parameters. The results of this paper demonstrate that as the separation distance between tunnels decreases, internal forces increase, except for the normal force, which decreases. The total principal stresses around the tunnels exhibits the same behaviour. Additionally, the position of the adjacent tunnel clearly influences the internal forces, decreasing in vertic

It is of great importance to ensure the structural safety of dams during earthquakes since a failure may cause catastrophic consequences. Conventional computation of the structural response of dams is based on a simplified approach where the foundation is considered as massless.

These newer methods are intended to simulate the seismic structural response more accurately, optimize the design and minimise future unnecessary reparatio

Reinforced concrete structural slurry walls have been used in the United States since the early 1960s.

One of the early applications was for a foundation for a subway station in San Francisco, but for the most part they have been used more extensively in regions of l

Abstract:
Earthquake disasters in the United States account for $6.1 billion of economic losses each year, much of which is directly linked to infrastructure damage. These natural disasters are unpredictable and represent one of the most difficult design problems regarding constructing resilient infrastructure. Structural floor and roof diaphragms act as the horizontal portion of the lateral force resisting system (LFRS), distributing the seismically derived inertial loads out from the heavy concrete slabs to the vertical LFRS. Concrete-filled steel deck diaphragms are ubiquitously used in steel constru

Abstract:
Natural Resources Canada, in partnership with the Global Earthquake Model Foundation, has prepared a public Canadian Seismic Risk Model to support disaster risk reduction efforts across industry and all levels of government, and to aid in Canada's adoption of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. Developing this model has involved the creation of a national exposure inventory, Canadian specific fragility and vulnerability curves, and adjustment of the Canadian Seismic Hazard Model which forms the basis for the seismic provisions of the National Building Code of Canada.

Abstract:
Tekcrete Fast is a deployable, high-strength cementitious product with rapid bonding force that was initially developed to provide stability for structures damaged by seismic activity and explosives. The product was evaluated by researchers at the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center for its ability to execute necessary force projection and resilient infrastructure repairs for the US military without major negative impacts to the mission. Full-scale testing of the rapidly emplaced calcium-sulfoaluminate (CSA) concrete product was completed to identify the sustainability and strengt

Abstract:
The motivation for this project developed from testing of a full scale building isolated with triple friction pendulum bearings on the E-defense shake table in Japan. The test demonstrated experimentally that the vertical component of ground motion can amplify both the base shear and the story acceleration in the isolated building. Vertical shaking introduced high-frequency variation in the axial force of the bearings, and, consequently, a high-frequency component in the bearing lateral force, which excited higher structural modes in the building. Since vertical bridges are flexible in the ver
