The seismic design of conventional structures is mainly addressed considering the direct construction cost; the life cycle costs (LCCs) are often neglected. This paper proposes a performance-based ...

Today, fabrication has moved toward a rigid, data-driven workflow where the digital model dictates every move on the floor. When producing steel components for high-performance mechanical systems, ...

In this work, the collapse ultimate load of a prefabricated reinforced concrete column–steel beam composite frame structure was studied. During the study, the “new RCS beam-to-column joint” was used ...

SpeedCore slashed 40% off the construction schedule for the 850-ft-tall Rainier Square Tower in Seattle, according to the structural engineer. Structural engineers interested in a novel high-rise ...
