Inelastic behavior and seismic collapse prevention performance of low-ductility steel braced frames

JG Sizemore - 2017 - ideals.illinois.edu
Seismic-force-resisting systems (SFRSs) in areas of low and moderate seismicity such as
the east coast of the United States have minimal ductility. Unlike high-ductility systems …

Numerical study on the impact of out-of-plane eccentricity on lateral behavior of concentrically braced frames

SM Zahrai, H Bolandi - International Journal of Steel Structures, 2019 - Springer
This study presents a numerical evaluation of lateral performance of Concentrically Braced
Frames (CBFs), assembled with unwanted out-of-plane eccentricity at the connection of their …

Performance assessment of special concentrically-braced frames in moderate seismic regions

KDM Grabner - 2018 - ideals.illinois.edu
Steel concentrically-braced frames (CBFs) are widely used lateral force resisting systems
with high strength, stiffness, and material efficiency. Special concentrically-braced frame …
