TL;DR: A critical review of the state-of-the-art related to steel lateral load resisting systems comprising of replaceable fuses that help in the easy repair of steel structures following strong earthquakes is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, an externally reinforced I-beam-to-box-column seismic connection is presented, where an inclined rib-plated collarplated configuration with web plates is used to ensure planar continuity between I-beam and box-column webs; the rib plates, inclined in plan between the beam web and the two column web planes, along with collar-plates encircling the box column at beam flange levels and web plates in plane with the rib plate at beam web level constitute the new configuration.

TL;DR: In this article, a beam-column connection consisting of two fuse links and a standard shear tab is developed such that the beam, column, and connecting bolts remain elastic, while sufficient energy dissipation is provided by the fuse links alone.

TL;DR: In this article, the mean values of peak compressive stress, strain corresponding to peak stress and elastic modulus are 2.82 MPa, 0.009 and 0.4 GPa respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the current state of a bridge is of interest for a variety of reasons, such as the material properties and boundary conditions of the bridge, as well as its physical properties.
