This paper reviews the research conducted on steel eccentrically braced frames (EBFs).
Both component level and system level responses for such braced frames are treated and …

Abstract Nowadays, Buckling-Restrained Brace Frames (BRBFs) have been used as lateral
force-resisting systems for low-, to mid-rise buildings. Residual Interstory Drift (RID) of …

The permanent deformation of the building after seismic excitations can be determined by
the Maximum Residual Interstory Drift Ratio (MR-IDR), which may be used for measuring the …

This paper presents an important improvement in seismic design of structures based on the
application of the Theory of Plastic Mechanism Control (TPMC). TPMC was originally …

In the present study, Eccentrically Braced Frames'(EBF) seismic behavior with single and
double shear panels is introduced. The numerical modeling is done by commercial FE …

The work herein presented proposes an innovative approach to the use of friction dampers
in seismic resistant steel structures. In fact, reference is made to dual systems where …

This work aims at the development of an advanced method for the seismic design of Moment
Resisting Frames (MRFs) based on a target value of the failure probability in the attainment …

Steel eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) are commonly used as a lateral load-resisting
system, in particular in high seismic regions, due to their high ductility, stable and reliable …

The excellent hysteretic behavior of Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) using shear links
have made these systems an effective alternative for both moment resisting frame as well as …

Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) constitute a good structural solution located between
Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) and Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) because they …
