  2. Hybrid masonry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_masonry

    Hybrid masonry is a new type of building system that uses engineered, reinforced masonry to brace frame structures. Typically, hybrid masonry is implemented with concrete masonry panels used to brace steel frame structures. The basic concept is to attach a reinforced concrete masonry panel to a structural steel frame such that some combination ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_system

    A classification for the structural system of a high-rise was introduced in 1969 by Fazlur Khan and was extended to incorporate interior and exterior structures. The primary lateral load-resisting system defines if a structural system is an interior or exterior one. [2] The following interior structures are possible: Hinged frame; Rigid frame

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustron_house

    A steel framing system was devised consisting of vertical steel studs and roof-ceiling trusses to which all interior and exterior panels were attached. The concept of prefabricated housing was well established by firms such as The Aladdin Company , Gordon-Van Tine Company , Montgomery Ward , and Sears in the early 1900s.

  5. Buckling-restrained brace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling-restrained_brace

    Buckling-restrained braces have energy dissipative behavior that is much improved from that of Special Concentrically Braced Frames (SCBFs). Also, because their behavior factor is higher than that of most other seismic systems (R=8), and the buildings are typically designed with an increased fundamental period, the seismic loads are typically ...

    Coupled steel plate shear walls, Seattle The Ritz-Carlton/JW Marriott hotel building engaging the advanced steel plate shear walls system, Los Angeles. A steel plate shear wall (SPSW) consists of steel infill plates bounded by a column-beam system. When such infill plates occupy each level within a framed bay of a structure, they constitute a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

    Typical U.S. height for panels is 8 or 9 feet (2.4 or 2.7 m). Panels come in widths ranging from 4 to 12 inches (100–300 mm) thick and a rough cost is $4–$6/ft 2 in the U.S. [5] In 4Q 2010, new methods of forming radius, sine curve, arches and tubular SIPs were commercialized. Due to the custom nature and technical difficulty of forming and ...

    The Quadruplex was to comprise three articulated engines of 8 driving wheels each beneath the locomotive itself, and a fourth engine beneath the tender.As a compound locomotive, engine cylinders 7 and 9 (as numbered on the above image) would receive high pressure steam to drive the first and third engines, each would exhaust as low-pressure steam to power cylinders 8 and 10 on the second and ...

  9. Braced frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braced_Frame

    OCBF steel frame buildings originated in Chicago and reinforced concrete frames originated in Germany and France – areas where earthquakes were not an engineering consideration. [1] Accordingly, special concentrically or eccentrically braced frames were later developed with extensive design requirements, and are frequently used in areas of ...
