Impact of Seismicity on Performance and Cost of RC Shear Wall Buildings in Dubai, United Arab Emirates

AbstractUnfortunately, available probabilistic seismic hazard studies are reporting significantly varying estimates for seismicity of Dubai. Given Dubai’s rapid economic growth, it is crucial to as...
