User-Oriented Architectural Design of Separated Infill Walls to Prevent Soft Ground Story in Reinforced Concrete Low-Rise Buildings

Abstract Buildings with open ground stories are more vulnerable to soft story mechanisms, which might lead to building collapse in a moderate quake. To mitigate these negative effects, retrofitting...
