Abstract

The thesis investigates the feasibility of using single diagonal haunch with post-installed anchors for improving the seismic performance of limited-ductile beam-column joints in reinforced concrete structures. This straightforward, less-invasive and architecturally-favourable solution can result in reducing the effect of seismic actions on buildings and consequently diminishing casualties.
