Braced steel frames are commonly used to resist lateral loads from earthquakes. There are two main types of bracing configurations: concentric and eccentric. Cross bracing provides the highest lateral stiffness compared to diagonal bracing or unbraced frames. Analysis of a sample braced steel frame model found that cross bracing reduced story drift by 87% and column shear and bending moments compared to an unbraced frame. However, axial forces in the columns increased with the addition of bracing. Response spectrum analysis accounted for multiple vibration modes while time history analysis used specific earthquake acceleration records over time. Cross bracing consistently performed best at reducing lateral deformation and forces in the frame.

Evaluation of Shear Wall as Lateral Load Resisting System for a 12 Storey RC ...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes the behavior of a 12-story reinforced concrete building frame provided with external shear walls as a lateral load resisting system, compared to an identical moment resisting frame without shear walls. Six building models are analyzed using the equivalent static lateral load method for seismic zone V of India. Results show that the external shear walls provide better resistance to lateral loads, with lower maximum joint displacements, support reactions, story drift, and principal stresses compared to the bare frame without shear walls. The study aims to help evaluate existing buildings for seismic retrofitting by upgrading with lateral load resisting features like external shear walls.
Tall buildings are very wind sensitive, especially hurricanes, and their structural response is usually governed by serviceability concerns like peak accelerations and deflections. Wind tunnel testing is used to study wind loading and dynamic response. Taller than 100m, cross-wind vibrations are usually greater than along-wind. Standard deviations of deflections at the top depend on factors like the building's height, density, cross-section, and damping ratio. Auxiliary damping devices like tuned mass dampers are sometimes used to dissipate vibration energy beyond structural damping alone.

Horizontal and vertical elements of a building work together to resist horizontal earthquake forces. The horizontal diaphragm elements (roofs and floors) distribute seismic forces to the vertical shear wall elements. Shear walls are the main components that resist earthquake forces and transfer them to the foundation. Masonry shear walls can fail in sliding, shear, or flexural modes depending on their aspect ratio and the magnitude of seismic forces.

IRJET-Effective Location Of Shear Walls and Bracings for Multistoried BuildingIRJET Journal
This document analyzes the effectiveness of different structural configurations for resisting lateral loads in a 10-story building subject to seismic activity. Two structural models are considered: a normal building frame and a dual system with shear walls and bracings placed at the building corners. Both models are analyzed using time history analysis in STAAD-Pro. Results show that the dual system experiences significantly less lateral deflection, with displacements reduced by 86-89% compared to the normal frame building. Additionally, the dual system sees only minor reductions in maximum shear force and bending moment compared to the normal frame building. Therefore, the dual system with corner shear walls and bracings provides greatly enhanced seismic performance over a normal framed building.

- Reinforced concrete walls must meet minimum reinforcement requirements to control cracking. The general design method and shear design method are described.
- Additional requirements for seismic-resistant walls include more reinforcement and confinement near the ends of walls.

Ch8 Truss Bridges (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. Metwally ...Hossam Shafiq II
This chapter discusses truss bridges. It begins by defining a truss as a triangulated assembly of straight members that can be used to replace girders. The main advantages of truss bridges are that primary member forces are axial loads and the open web system allows for greater depth.
The chapter then describes the typical components of a through truss bridge and the most common truss forms including Pratt, Warren, curved chord, subdivided, and K-trusses. Design considerations like truss depth, economic spans, cross section shapes, and wind bracing are covered. The chapter concludes with sections on determining member forces, design principles, and specific design procedures.
Ch7 Box Girder Bridges (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. Metw...Hossam Shafiq II
1. Box girder bridges have two key advantages over plate girder bridges: they possess torsional stiffness and can have much wider flanges.
2. For medium span bridges between 45-100 meters, box girder bridges offer an attractive form of construction as they maintain simplicity while allowing larger span-to-depth ratios compared to plate girders.
3. Advances in welding and cutting techniques have expanded the structural possibilities for box girders, allowing for more economical designs of large welded units.
Ch5 Plate Girder Bridges (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. Me...Hossam Shafiq II
Plate girders are commonly used as main girders for short and medium span bridges. They are fabricated by welding together steel plates to form an I-shape cross-section, unlike hot-rolled I-beams. Plate girders offer more design flexibility than rolled sections as the plates can be optimized for strength and economy. However, their thin plates are more susceptible to various buckling modes which control the design. Buckling considerations of the compression flange, web in shear and bending must be evaluated to determine the plate girder's load capacity.
Ch4 Bridge Floors (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. Metwally ...Hossam Shafiq II
This chapter discusses bridge floors for roadway and railway bridges. It describes three main types of structural systems for roadway bridge floors: slab, beam-slab, and orthotropic plate. For railway bridges, the two main types are open timber floors and ballasted floors. The chapter then covers design considerations for allowable stresses, stringer and cross girder cross sections, and provides an example design for the floor of a roadway bridge with I-beam stringers and cross girders.
Ch3 Design Considerations (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr. M...Hossam Shafiq II
This chapter discusses design considerations for steel bridges. It outlines two main design philosophies: working stress design and limit states design. The chapter then focuses on the working stress design method, which is based on the Egyptian Code of Practice for Steel Constructions and Bridges. It provides allowable stress values for various steel grades and loading conditions, including stresses due to axial, shear, bending, compression and tension loads. Design of sections is classified based on compact and slender criteria. The chapter also addresses stresses from repeated, erection and secondary loads.
Ch2 Design Loads on Bridges (Steel Bridges تصميم الكباري المعدنية & Prof. Dr....Hossam Shafiq II
This document discusses design loads on bridges. It describes various types of loads that bridges must be designed to resist, including dead loads from the bridge structure itself, live loads from traffic, and environmental loads such as wind, temperature, and earthquakes. It provides specifics on how to calculate loads from road and rail traffic according to Egyptian design codes, including truck and train configurations, impact factors, braking and centrifugal forces, and load distributions. Other loads like wind, thermal effects, and concrete shrinkage are also summarized.

3. It provides examples of different types of bridges and explains the basic structural systems used in bridges, including simply supported, cantilever, and continuous beams as well as rigid frames.
Lec11 Continuous Beams and One Way Slabs(1) (Reinforced Concrete Design I & P...Hossam Shafiq II
The document discusses reinforced concrete continuity and analysis methods for continuous beams and one-way slabs. It describes how steel reinforcement must extend through members to provide structural continuity. The ACI/SBC coefficient method of analysis is summarized, which uses coefficient tables to determine maximum shear forces and bending moments for continuous beams and one-way slabs under various loading conditions in a simplified manner compared to elastic analysis. Requirements for applying the coefficient method include having multiple spans with ratios less than 1.2, prismatic member sections, and live loads less than 3 times dead loads.
Lec10 Bond and Development Length (Reinforced Concrete Design I & Prof. Abdel...Hossam Shafiq II
This document discusses bond and development length in reinforced concrete. It defines bond as the adhesion between concrete and steel reinforcement, which is necessary to develop their composite action. Bond is achieved through chemical adhesion, friction from deformed bar ribs, and bearing. Development length refers to the minimum embedment length of a reinforcement bar needed to develop its yield strength by bonding to the surrounding concrete. The development length depends on factors like bar size, concrete strength, bar location, and transverse reinforcement. It also provides equations from design codes to calculate the development length for tension bars, compression bars, bundled bars, and welded wire fabric. Hooked bars can be used when full development length is not available, and the document discusses requirements for standard hook geome
Lec09 Shear in RC Beams (Reinforced Concrete Design I & Prof. Abdelhamid Charif)Hossam Shafiq II
This document discusses shear in reinforced concrete beams. It covers shear stress and failure modes, shear strength provided by concrete and steel stirrups, design according to code provisions, and critical shear sections. Key points include: transverse loads induce shear stress perpendicular to bending stresses; shear failure is brittle and must be designed to exceed flexural strength; nominal shear strength comes from concrete and steel stirrups according to code equations; design requires checking section adequacy and providing minimum steel area and maximum stirrup spacing. Critical shear sections for design are located a distance d from supports.
Lec06 Analysis and Design of T Beams (Reinforced Concrete Design I & Prof. Ab...Hossam Shafiq II
1) T-beams are commonly used structural elements that can take two forms: isolated precast T-beams or T-beams formed by the interaction of slabs and beams in buildings.
2) The analysis and design of T-beams considers the effective flange width provided by slab interaction or the dimensions of an isolated precast flange.
3) Two methods are used to analyze T-beams: assuming the stress block is in the flange and using rectangular beam theory, or using a decomposition method if the stress block extends into the web.
Lec05 Design of Rectangular Beams with Tension Steel only (Reinforced Concret...Hossam Shafiq II
The document discusses design considerations for rectangular reinforced concrete beams with tension steel only. It covers topics such as beam proportions, deflection control, selection of reinforcing bars, concrete cover, bar spacing, effective steel depth, minimum beam width, and number of bars. Beam proportions should have a depth to width ratio of 1.5-2 for normal spans and up to 4 for longer spans. Minimum concrete cover and bar spacings are specified to protect the steel. Effective steel depth is the distance from the extreme compression fiber to the steel centroid. Design assumptions must be checked against the final design.
Lec04 Analysis of Rectangular RC Beams (Reinforced Concrete Design I & Prof. ...Hossam Shafiq II
This document discusses the ultimate flexural analysis of reinforced concrete beams according to building codes. It covers topics such as concrete stress-strain relationships, stress distributions at failure, nominal and design flexural strength, moments in beams, tension steel ratios, minimum steel requirements, ductile and brittle failure modes, and calculations for balanced and maximum steel ratios. Diagrams illustrate key concepts regarding stress blocks, strain distributions, and section types. Formulas are presented for determining balanced steel ratio, maximum steel ratio, and checking neutral axis depth.
Lec03 Flexural Behavior of RC Beams (Reinforced Concrete Design I & Prof. Abd...Hossam Shafiq II
The document discusses the behavior and analysis of reinforced concrete beams. It describes three stages that beams undergo as loading increases: 1) the uncracked concrete stage, 2) the cracked-elastic stage, and 3) the ultimate strength stage. It also discusses assumptions made in flexural theory, stress-strain curves for concrete and steel, and methods for calculating stresses in uncracked and cracked beams using the transformed area method. Key points covered include cracking moment, modular ratio, and the three-step transformed area method for cracked sections.
