Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified procedure for assessing the seismic capacity of masonry arches is proposed, which couples two quite simple analysis approaches, i.e. FEM linear analysis and limit analysis applied following Heyman's hypotheses to a pre-chosen failure mechanism.

TL;DR: In this paper, the seismic performance of partial perimeter and spatial moment resisting frames (MRFs) for low-to-medium-rise buildings is investigated in terms of seismic performance.
Abstract: The present study deals with the seismic performance of partial perimeter and spatial moment resisting frames (MRFs) for low-to-medium rise buildings. It seeks to establish perimeter configuration ...
