Analytical study on upgrading the seismic performance of nominally ductile RC frame structures using different rehabilitation techniques

There exist many reinforced concrete (RC) buildings that are located in seismically active zones and designed according to older strength-based codes. These buildings are susceptible to abrupt non-ductile strength deterioration once their ultimate strength is reached, which reduces the energy dissip...
