An Overview of Research at HKU on HSRC Columns and Beam- Column Joints for Low-Medium Seismic-Risked Regions

Up to now building structures in Hong Kong (HK) are not required to resist earthquake effects. The design is based primarily on strength without taking into account any ductility consideration. Therefore, the resulting structures would have unpredictable inelastic performance when subject to overlo...
