Overview

Proposal shows enhanced seismic resistance in columns through a controlled system with springs and cables, indicating better self-centering and performance.

Key Points

  • Controlled multiple-rocking reduces peak displacement and enhances dynamic performance during earthquakes.
  • The study includes experimental and numerical simulations to validate the proposed stiffening system’s effectiveness.
  • The proposed dimensionless measure aids in selecting the optimal spring stiffness for improved self-centering properties.
  • Implementing this design could preserve the architectural appearance of significant structures while improving their seismic resilience.
