Existing Buildings

  • Nonlinear analysis of the structure under gravitational loads
  • Nonlinear time-history dynamic analysis of the structure under seismic loads
  • Demoulding, transportation and erection analyses for individual members
  • Dimensioning of structural members
  • Reinforcement and detail design
  • Preperation of shop drawings

New Buildings

  • Gathering of information for computer model
  • Obtaining nonlinear behaviour models for structural members
  • Selecting and scaling strong ground motions in accordance with existing seismicity conditions
  • Nonlinear time-history dynamic analysis of the structure under the combination of gravitational and seismic loads
  • Evaluation of seismic performance level of the structure
  • In the case of insufficient seismic performance of the structure:
  • Developing the optimum retrofit strategy for the building
  • In the case of retrofitability of the structure:
  • Preperation of shop drawings for retrofit works
  • Quantity takeoff and cost analysis for retrofit works
  • Design, production and erection of novel passive energy dissipation device
