Doel van het project is om te kijken hoe we de kansen voor verduurzaming in het aardbevingsgebied kunnen benutten en of we dat ook gezamenlijk zouden kunnen doen.

Opportunities for new forms of public-private partnership in the Groningen earthquake zone

The seismic performance of a two-story 2D frame and a five-story 3D frame–shear-wall structure founded on spread (isolated) footings is investigated. In addition to footings conventionally designed in accordance with “capacity-design” principles, substantially under-designed footings are also used. Such …

Mild steel is relatively low-cost and easily accessible material to fabricate some structural members. It would be a significant advantage if seismic energy dissipaters that are used in structures constructed in the earthquake prone areas, could also be produced on site. In this paper, a promising seismic …
