Based on current coding practice in Norway, a reliable national estimate of hip fracture incidences is found by a combination of relevant ICD-10 and NOMESCO codes in the NPR.
Linkage of ZIP codes to weather monitors was based on current ZIP codes, and some of the ZIP codes or ZIP code boundaries had changed since the years of study (1995 2000).
The behavior of the nonlinear hinges was defined by using backbone curves based on current design codes of KCI 2012 and ACI 318-11.
Finally, the hysteretic curve model and shearing capacity are generalized based on massive test data, and the design formula of shearing capacity is also proposed based on current design codes.
This study has demonstrated the influence of material selection on the life cycle energy balance of a building based on current building codes and common building service systems in Finland.
First, the ultimate flexural strength of non-uni-thickness walled rectangular CFT is compared to the predicted strength of corresponding uni-thickness walled CFT beams based on current design codes.
In order to study the seismic behavior of earthquake-damaged composite steel-concrete columns strengthened by enveloped steel, based on current design codes, four composite steel-concrete column models were designed and manufactured.
The study concludes that columns in two-story X-braced frames, designed based on current design code, experience yielding during an earthquake ground motion, and it is not safe to use the first mode deformation as the only possible deformation pattern for designing the braced frames.
34 Medical care resource unit costs were retrieved from the published literature 30, 32, 33, 35 and estimated based on current procedural terminology codes and corresponding fee schedules (Table 2).
Dental treatment procedures were identified based on Current Dental Terminology (CDT) codes and grouped into six categories.
