Collapse risk assessment of a Chilean dual wall-frame reinforced concrete office building.
Several code-conforming reinforced concrete buildings were severely damaged during the 2010 moment magnitude (Mw) 8.8 Chile earthquake, raising concerns about their real collapse margin. Although critical updates were ...
Collapse risk assessment of a Chilean dual wall-frame reinforced concrete office building
(2019)
Several code-conforming reinforced concrete buildings were severely damaged during the 2010 moment magnitude (Mw) 8.8 Chile earthquake, raising concerns about their real collapse margin. Although critical updates were ...
Collapsible Behavior of Lateritic Soil Due to Compacting Conditions
(2020-10-01)
Soil collapse is a major geotechnical problem that causes architectural and structural damage to buildings and engineering infrastructure. Losses due to soil collapsibility have an economical aspect and the study of these ...
Modeling criteria of older non-ductile concrete frame–wall buildings.
The purpose of seismic provisions included in modern building codes is to obtain a satisfactory structural performance of buildings during earthquakes. However, in the United States and elsewhere, there are large inventories ...

Study on Partial Collapse of a Five Story Reinforced Concrete Building during the 2010 Chile Earthquake
(2012)
After the 2010 Chile earthquake about 20 reinforced concrete (RC) buildings were declared inhabitable and four buildings faced demolition order within the city of Santiago, which is located more than 300 km away from the ...
Improvement of collapsible soil behavior of a lateritic soil using rice husk ash
(2016-01-01)
Great areas of Brazil present lateritic soils, such as the northeast and the south. Some of these soils have, as main characteristic, instable structures that can present considerable volumetric deformation in the presence ...
Settlement of Footings on Compacted and Natural Collapsible Soils upon Loading and Soaking
(2021-04-01)
Collapsible unsaturated soils experience large volumetric compressive deformations upon wetting. Soil collapse is a geotechnical problem that occurs in different regions of the world and profoundly impacts buildings and ...
Equation of Motion Governing the Dynamics of Vertically Collapsing Buildings
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERSRESTON, 2012-12)
The present paper aims at contributing to a discussion, opened by several authors, on the proper equation of motion that governs the vertical collapse of buildings. The most striking and tragic example is that of the World ...
