Seismic Response of Moment‐Resisting Steel and Composite Multi‐Story Buildings

The seismic design of multi‐story steel buildings requires balancing structural efficiency, drift control, and material economy. This study presents a parametric comparison of moment‐resisting steel and steel‐concrete composite buildings, where steel beams interact with concrete slabs through shear connectors. Numerica...

Comparative Assessment of Steel Truss Typologies for Industrial Buildings

Efficient design of industrial buildings depends on selecting appropriate portal frame typologies with steel roof trusses. This study compares five two‐dimensional truss configurations: gable, monopitch, sawtooth, twin, and curved/parabolic. For each typology, a parametric study varied the span (10‐s50 m, 5 m steps), t...

Optimization of 3D industrial buildings through variation of geometry and bracing systems

The structural design of three‐dimensional pitched roof industrial buildings require addressing the interaction between global geometry, lateral stabilization systems, and seismic demand. This study presents a parametric analysis of three‐dimensional steel gable frame models in which the span is varied from 10 to 50 m...

Numerical simulation and parametric study of plywood‐cold formed steel composite floor members

This study examines the structural behaviour of cold‐formed steel–timber composite floor systems formed of thin‐walled steel profiles and plywood panels, connected using self‐drilling screws to provide different levels of shear connection. After summarising the experimental assessments, in terms of material, push‐out,...

Nonlinear simulations of steel‐timber shear connections

This paper presents a nonlinear numerical modelling strategy for steel‐timber shear connections, calibrated against experimental push‐out tests conducted at multiple loading rates. The numerical simulations reproduce the experimentally observed load‐deformation response of eighteen specimens with various connector size...
