CCTV News: At 15:20 on December 9, 2019, an earthquake of magnitude 4.6 occurred in Anzhou District, Mianyang City, Sichuan, China (31.56 degrees north latitude, 104.25 degrees east longitude), with a focal depth of 10 kilometers! According to statistics, almost all of the light-steel villas built in Sichuan at that time were not deformed or collapsed, but the brick and tiled houses had more or le...

There are two main mechanical characteristics of light-frame buildings, namely load sharing and repeated and compound effects. Load sharing means that all components in the system have both division of labor and cooperation, and work together to bear the load. Even if a component fails-it is not able to bear the part of the load it should bear, it does not matter. The neighbors will take the lead ...

The designs of light gauge steel frame buildings are designed according to permanent building specifications just like in reinforced concrete buildings. Calculations are made according to the load required to be carried. In addition, since they are significantly lighter than reinforced concrete, they are much less exposed to earthquake loads. This significantly increases the earthquake resistance ...
