Experimental Study on Seismic Performance of Prefabricated Frame Column Joints with a High Axial Compression Ratio by Y. L. Wang, X. Y. Wu, B. B. Li

“…A new type of an assembled monolithic concrete column encased by partial outsourcing steel was proposed, and the seismic performance was proposed. To study the seismic performance such as failure mode, hysteretic behavior, deformation, ductility of the specimen, and the influence of the outsourcing steel pipe on the mechanical performance of the specimens, the comparative tests of four full-scale specimens under low cyclic reciprocating load under a high axial compression ratio were carried out. …”

Numerical Investigation of Timber Log-Haus Walls with Steel Dovetail Reinforcements under In-Plane Seismic Loads by Chiara Bedon, Massimo Fragiacomo

“…Log-haus systems are in fact typically obtained by stacking multiple logs and generally used for residential or commercial buildings up to two levels. Their seismic characterization, however, still requires further investigations and studies, since current standards for timber structures (i.e., Eurocode 5 and Eurocode 8) do not provide specific recommendations for their seismic design. …”
