Replicating nature’s design in steel structures to enhance structural performance under transverse load

Many structural buildings are conceptualised and designed with a key emphasis on vertical imposed loadings and lesser on lateral loadings (other than wind loading consideration). However, in landslide-prone areas, strong coastal waves or earthquakeprone areas, engineers counteract these lateral forc...
