Alan Storey : Drawing Machines
No full textBédard’s analysis of seven “drawing machines” by Storey (created during a 15-year period) focuses on the technical and mechanical processes used by the artist, as well as the relationships between machines and exhibition sites. The author also reflects on how the caustic function of the kinetic sculptures relates to perception. Includes excerpts from Storey’s notebooks. Text in French and English. Biographical notes. 15 bibl. ref
Seismic analysis of a 2-storey log house
No full textThe current paper deals with the analysis of the results yielded by a series of tests performed to evaluate the seismic behaviour of a model log construction. The study was based on an experimental investigation performed to improve the existing knowledge on log houses subject to seismic events. The main part of the experimental work is based on a full scale shaking table test, conducted on a two-storey log house designed by the Portuguese company Rusticasa® in compliance with design rules for timber buildings. The test was performed by the University of Minho within the framework of the SERIES Project ‘Multi-storey timber buildings’ and was coordinated by the University of Trento, at LNEC, Lisbon, Portugal.
The geometry of the specimen, the design of the test, the setup and the instrumentation layout are first presented in this paper. The test procedure was conducted in stages with maximum accelerations (bi-directional) of 0.07g, 0.28g and 0.5g. The experimental results of each test have been analyzed and the resultant values of inter-storey drift, wall slippage and uplift measurements, shear deformations and hold-down forces measured are presented. Most importantly, the dynamic properties (fundamental period and mode shapes) of the system have been determined

Dynamic nonlinear analyses for the 4-storey infilled R/C frame: study of a retrofitting solution
No full textA research project on assessment and retrofitting of R/C frame structures is currently being developed under the research programme of the ICONS TMR-research network. This paper presents and discusses the preliminary experimental results from a 4-storey bare frame representative of the common practice of 40~50 years ago in most south European countries and devotes special attention to the study of a retrofitting solution based on bracing and rubber dissipaters, which intends to increase stiffness and damping reducing consequently the earthquake deformation demands.O estudo aqui apresentado concentra-se numa solução de reforço de um pórtico utilizando contraventamentos (k-bracing) com perfis de aço em conjunto com elementos elastoméricos de dissipação. Os resultados das análises não lineares da estrutura com e sem alvenaria e com reforço são apresentados e discutidos. Na segunda parte da comunicação apresentam-se os resultados experimentais já disponíveis e discute-se o problema da modelação recorrendo aos resultados experimentais e comparando os resultados obtidos com diferentes tipos de modelos
Letter from John W. Storey to Laurence L. Doggett (February 26, 1917)
No full textA letter from John W. Storey to Laurence L. Doggett dated February 26, 1917. In the Letter Storey talks about when he might be able to return to campus.John W. Storey was born in Dublin, Ireland, and graduated from the International YMCA Training School (now known as Springfield College) in 1906. He was the Boys’ Work Director of the Association in Yangon (Rangoon), Burma (Myanmar). He returned to Springfield, where he married his wife, in 1911. He then worked at various YMCAs in the US, before moving to Canada. He served churches in Canada before leaving for the UK where he was the Rector at Staplegrove for about 24 years

A modified storey enclosure model
No full textJames' Storey Enclosure Method (JSEM), developed in 1954, is considered by many to be the most sophisticated single-rate method ever devised for early-design-stage tender price forecasts. However, the method is seldom used in practice partly because it has been superseded by multi-rate methods (such as the elemental method) and partly due to the arbitrary nature of the weightings prescribed for its use. The approach has been further developed and empirical values of the weightings are derived by multivariate regression analysis. A set of 50 completed Hong Kong private housing projects is used to demonstrate the use of the technique. This involves, firstly, the modification of the variables used in the original JSEM to incorporate the special characteristics of Hong Kong multi-storey residential buildings. This results in what is termed here as a Modified James' Storey Enclosure Model (MJSEM). Next, the optimal number of variables for inclusion in the model is identified by means of a dual stepwise cross validation regression procedure - resulting in a Regressed Modified Model for James' Storey Enclosure Method (RMJSEM). In addition, using an amended version of MJSEM, the dual stepwise cross validation regression is used to produce a Regressed Modified Model for Amended Storey Enclosure Method (RMASEM). The forecasting accuracy of RMJSEM and RMASEM is then compared with that of MJSEM together with the floor area and cube method to provide an indication of the improvement achieved. It is shown that the RMASEM provides significantly more consistent forecasts than the MJSEM and floor area models, leading to the conclusion that RMASEM may be the best model.Forecasts, cost model, regression, cross validation,
