Seismic Resiliency of Repetitively Framed Mid-Rise Cold-Formed Steel Buildings
As a capstone to the multi-university-industry collaborative CFS-NHERI project, a full-scale 10-story CFS-framed building is planned for seismic testing under increasing, multi-directional earthquake motion intensity and subsequent live fire testing. This collaboration follows on successful prior system-level 2-story (CFS-NEES) and 6-story (CFS-HUD) efforts of the team.
Beyond-code, state-of-the-art CFS building
