Seismic capacity evaluation of post-tensioned concrete
Seismic capacity evaluation of post-tensioned concrete slab-column frame buildings designed only
for gravity loads and wind load is presented. The series of nonlinear pushover analyses are carried out
by using the computer program SAP2000. An equivalent frame model with explicit transverse torsional
members is introduced for modeling slab-column connections. The analyses are carried out by following
guidelines in ATC-40 and FEMA-273/274, where several important factors such as P-Delta effects, strength
and stiffness contributions from masonry infill walls, and foundation flexibility are well taken into account.
The pushover analysis results, presented in the form of capacity curves, are compared with the seismic
demand from the expected earthquake ground motion for Bangkok and then the seismic performance can
be evaluated. Numerical examples are performed on the 9- and 30-storey post-tension flat-plate buildings
in Bangkok. The results show that in general post-tensioned concrete slab-column frame buildings without
shear wall possess relatively low lateral stiffness, low lateral strength capacity, and poor inelastic response
characteristics. The evaluation also shows that the slab-column frame combined with the shear wall system
and drop panel can increase the strength and stiffness significantly.

Structural Engineering International (SEI), the quarterly Journal of the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE), is the leading international journal of structural engineering dealing with all types of structures and materials.
SEI offers its readers a unique blend of short profiles on recent structures, and longer, in-depth technical articles on research, development, design, construction and maintenance. Articles are written by practicing engineers and academia from around the world and reflect the high standards of IABSE. All technical articles are reviewed by the IABSE SEI Editorial Board, with collaboration of over 250 experts and over 20 Correspondents. IABSE Peer Review stamps are given to papers that have passed through a highly selective review process and demonstrate a significant contribution to the state of structural engineering knowledge.

STAAD.Pro V8i SELECTseries 1 introduces several new enhancements in the analysis and design engine and enhancements to the RAM Connection and Piping Modes. This includes a nuclear design engine to the AISC N690:1984 code, additional UK and French National Annexes for the Eurocode 3 steel design module an updated Russian concrete design module and steel section databases and a Chinese Seismic Forces engine. The RAM Connection Mode has been redesigned to better operate with RAM Connection and use the RAM Connection v5.5 engine. The Piping mode has been enhanced with a new connection wizard to connect AutoPIPE models and thus rapidly transfer forces and complete designs.

Hello Friends,
I am new to Revit Structure. I am trying to learn it. I am just curious that is this software basically for drafting or is it good for structural engineers to learn it? Pleas all the structural engineers out there who work on this software, please share your experience.
Also if you have some example files ( Revit Files, not some tutorial or videos) please share it.
Also want to know the difference between Revit Structure and Autodesk Structural Detailing.

Computational Analysis of Randomness in Structural Mechanics: Structures and Infrastructures, Vol. 3
Computational Analysis of Randomness in Structural Mechanics: Structures and Infrastructures, Vol. 3
Christian Bucher,
CRC | 2009 | ISBN: 0415403545 | 248 pages | PDF | 4,2 MB
Proper treatment of structural behavior under severe loading - such as the performance of a high-rise building during an earthquake - relies heavily on the use of probability-based analysis and decision-making tools. Proper application of these tools is significantly enhanced by a thorough understanding of the underlying theoretical and computational concepts as provided by this book.
Detailing the computational aspects of stochastic analysis within the field of structural mechanics, this book first presents a few motivating examples that demonstrate the various random effects within the context of simple structural analysis models. It moreover briefly reviews the fundamental concepts from continuum mechanics and puts them in the perspective of modern numerical tools, such as the finite element method. More advanced topics are developed step by step while gradually increasing the complexity of the structural and probabilistic analyses.
This volume is intended for structural analysts and advanced students who wish to explore the benefits of stochastic analysis. It will provide researchers and decision makers working on structural and infrastructural systems with the necessary probabilistic information needed for strategic developments in construction, inspection and maintenance.
