SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR RETROFITTING A BUILDING FOR INCREASED EARTHQUAKE RESISTANCE |
| 摘要 |
A system for retrofitting a building to make the building more earthquake resistant. The system includes a seismically-tuned (S-T) frame. The S-T frame is configured to absorb a first portion of the forces imparted by an earthquake and transfer a second portion of the forces in a distributed manner to areas of a building such that they can be better withstood. The system also includes a rigid truss diaphragm. The rigid truss diaphragm is connected to the S-T frame and configured to transfer the second portion of the forces imparted by an earthquake to an overlying structure. |
