A Displacement-Based Design Method for Seismic Retrofit of RC Buildings Using Dissipative Braces
The paper proposes a displacement-based design method for seismic retrofit of RC buildings using hysteretic dissipative braces. At first, a fully multimodal procedure based on an adaptive version of the capacity spectrum method is applied to the 3D model of the damped braced structure. Then, the pro...
