Finite Element Analysis of Bearing Behavior for the Curved Box-girders of Hefei Xinqiao International Airport Terminal.
The middle part of each frame is vertically braced by several steel pipe columns which are extend from the 1st or 2nd floor.
In order to obtain the effects of the stiffness of the box-girders on the columns’ effective length, a whole model of the airport terminal was established to conduct eigenvalue buckling analysis to obtain effective length factors of all the box-columns connected to the curved box-girder in Part 3.
The restraint of the column base was rigid, and the top restraint stiffness was provided by the curved box-girders and other structure members.

Several studies were conducted on the effect of blast loading on buildings, and those studies focused on the behavior and performance of individual structural elements [6,7,8] .
The comparison study between rigid frames, braced frames, and symmetrical and unsymmetrical outrigger frames showed that braced frames have the best performance under blast load, followed by symmetrical outrigger frames [19].
More studies were conducted on the behavior of the outrigger and belt systems.
Outrigger systems showed the best behavior in terms of inter-story drift under blast loads and then followed by shear wall frame system.

It can be seen that the structure of torsional stiffness is not great, it is necessary to strengthen the bridge torsional stiffness.
The effect of vertical seismic waves to longitudinal bending moment and axial force is familiar.
Vertical seismic wave on the horizontal bending moment had little impact, and we can consider that it has no effect on it.

Study of earthquake response of two-storied steel frame with Y-shaped braces[A].

The partially infill frames are considered vulnerable in terms of captive column effect for the events of earthquakes.
In this paper experimental investigations of the structural behavior and failure modes of partially infilled RC frames subjected to lateral load, relative to those of bare RC frame, are presented.
Extensive studies, both experimental as well as analytical have been already performed to study the behavior of infilled RC frames.
This phenomenon clearly indicates that the walls contribute in enhancing the lateral behavior of the frame up to wall level.

Introduction Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs), which own some ductility of moment resisting frames and the stiffness of concentrically braced frames, include a link which acts as a structural fuse and elastic members that the latter provide frame stability.

SMA brace is installed diagonally in the frame structure.
It was also found that the stronger seismic excitation is, the larger tendon’s deformation is, and the more obvious damping effect is.
By adjusting its design parameters (such as the inclination angle of NiTi wires, pretension levels and friction effect), the hysteretic behavior can be modified to best fit the needs for structure control.
As mechanical behavior of SMA damper made by SMA wires is single and its force is small, researchers investigate utilization of SMA bars and plates for vibration control.
Numerical analysis on both frame structure and mega-frame suspended structure with the damper were conducted to show that the damper can effectively reduce structural seismic response.

The methodology of the seismic analysis of the structure behavior and the design of the structure under extreme loads are the object of the various authors [6,7,8,9,10,11,14,15,16,17,19].
The spectral analysis results from linear behavior of structures and the appropriate damping due to structure plasticity is considered by proportional damping for the whole structure or separately by materials.
The bridge is supported by columns from I profiles at modulus 4.7 m.

In this paper we describe the global fire analysis of composite steel-concrete frames in order to evaluate the influence of fire scenarios on the structural behaviour.
The frame belongs to a three-dimensional structure with a square plant and bracing in the direction perpendicular to the analyzed frame.
The columns of the frame designed are partially encased with HE500B steel profile.
The structural fire analyses were performed with an advanced structural model, which allows taking into account the nonlinear behaviour of materials and structure, and the effects of constrained thermal deformation.
