Comparative study of the cost and behavior of RC special moment frame buildings with drop and hidden beams subjected to seismic loads
This study presents a comparative analysis between two structural design ideas in the Ecuadorian construction market: hidden vs. drop beams. Due to its location in a high seismic zone, structural design considerations in Ecuador must be made with care. Therefore, to offer improved strength to seismi...
