      A number of short-to-mid height RC buildings with wide beams have been constructed in moderate-seismicity areas of Spain. The seismic behavior in the direction of the wide beams appears to be deficient because of low lateral ...
    • Vulnerability analysis of RC buildings with wide beams located in moderate seismicity regions
