Case study and Evaluation of two steel bracing systems in the Bam earthquake and methods of retrofitting

In the seismically active countries such as Iran, there are many structures that have been designed and constructed in recent years that do not conform to the terms and provisions of the design codes. On 26 December 2003 at 1:57 GMT, the historical city of Bam, located in the south-eastern region of...
