  • Effect of Directivity in Northeastern ALBANIA (5.4 MW) Earthquake of September 6, 2009, from Radiated Seismic Energy 
    Edmond, Dushi; Rrapo, Ormeni (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    We have quantitatively estimated an observed directivity effect, direct from the radiated seismic energy of September 6, 2009, in north-eastern Albania. Despite its moderate magnitude (Mw = 5.4), much damage was caused ...
  • Some retrofitting techniques for Albanian bridge 
    Kostandina, Dhefto (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Based in the world experience about on the seismic design of new bridges and retrofitting of existing ones, now days in Albania it is one of the priority to the implementation of modern codes (Euro codes). Generally the ...
  • Evaluation of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings with Structural Package Programs 
    Ali, DEMİR; Muhiddin, BAĞCI; Hakan, BAŞARAN (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Seismic performances of the structures shall be investigated due to lack of strength, seismic forces and change of intended purpose. Package softwares are developed to perform the complicated performance analyses easily. ...
  • Effect of Seismicity on Infrastructure Pipelines 
    Ali, Coşar; Ali, Koçak; Mehmet Şükrü, Özçoban; Cem, Akgüner (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    One of the important conditions of sustaining a healthy life is the quality of city water in residential environments and removal of wastes from living spaces. Therefore it is necessary that infrastructure systems we use ...
  • Fragility Based Assessment of a School Building in Turkey 
    Hüseyin, Bilgin (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    This study focuses on, by means of a probabilistic approach, the seismic safety evaluation of a school building in Turkey designed before the introduction of modern anti-seismic codes. A typical school building which was ...
  • Design Chart for Reinforced Concrete Rectangular Section 
    K. H., Bayagoob; Yavuz, Yardim; S. A., Ramoda (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Design charts are very useful for fast determining the percentage of reinforcement for singly and doubly reinforced concrete beams having known cross-sectional dimensions, characteristic strengths of the concrete and ...
  • Earthquake Performance Investigation of a Masonry Building 
    Hakan, Basaran; Ali, Demir; Muhiddin, Bagci (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    This study investigated earthquake safety of a school building with a total construction area of 377 m2 based on Turkish Earthquake Code-2007 (TEC-2007). The architectural projects of the building were not present. Data ...
  • Investigating the Behaviour of Plaster Mortared Rural Masonry Walls 
    Hakan, Basaran; Ali, Demir; Muhiddin, Bagci (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Turkey is located on the Alpine-Himalayan earthquake zone. %92 of its land is faced with earthquake hazard. Even in low intensity earthquakes, major damages have been observed in masonry structures. Masonry structures ...
  • The Effect of Seismic Isolation on the Dynamic Behavior of Cable-Stayed Bridges 
    Barbaros, Atmaca; Muhammet, Yurdakul; Sevket, Ates (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    The earthquake effects on cable-stayed bridges isolated by single concave friction pendulum (SCFP) are investigated in this study. Reducing ways of the destructive earthquake effects are getting vital important for ...
  • Dynamic Analysis of a Suspension Bridge Using CFRP Composite Material 
    Nil Arın, Atabey; Süleyman, Adanur; Murat, Günaydın; Ahmet Can, Altunışık; Barış, Sevim (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) is a class of advanced composite materials used in civil engineering because of their advantages when these materials are compared to traditional ones. These advantages are light weight, ...
  • ANOMALOUS OF LOW-VELOCITY ZONE, THERMAL WATER AND SEISMICITY IN THE ELBASAN-DIBRA FAULT ZONE 
    Shatro, Astrit; Ormeni, Rrapo (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    A detailed investigation of the hypocenter distribution beneath Elbasani, Albania, reveals a NE-SW-trending linear alignment of seismicity within the Elbasani-Dibra transversal zone. In the zone of Elbasani, hot mineral ...
  • Analytically Investigation of FRP Ductility Effect on Retrofitted RC Columns 
    Fatih, ALTUN; Furkan, BİRDAL (International Balkans Conferance on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Retrofitting of currently used buildings has come into question with the determination of buildings’ performance levels due to earthquake force effect. In this sense, lots of retrofitting techniques have been applied for ...
  • Determination of Behavior of Coupled Shear Walls Subjected to Horizontal Forces through Nonlinear Static Methods 
    Seyda, Akyurt; Kamil, Aydin (International Balkans Conference on Challenges of Civil Engineering, 2013-05-23)
    Coupled shear walls are one of the systems commonly used in medium and highrise structures to resist lateral forces. Yet these systems should not collapse or be induced severe damage during earthquake actions. For this ...
