Seismic resistance characteristics of reinforced concrete beam-supported floor slabs in building structures: Contribution of floor systems to earthquake resistance of building structural frames
Abstract
The in-plane seismic characteristics of reinforced concrete floor slabs which function as diaphragms placed between lateral load resisting systems were investigated. The floor slab system with edge beams, referred to as the beam-supported floor system is the focus of study. The experimental study, analytical study, parametric study, and dynamic response analysis are presented.
