Prefabricated tension-only concentrically braced beam-through frames (BTFs) have
received popularity for low-rise steel buildings in low to moderate seismic regions. However …

This paper presents results of numerical and experimental study of shear link behavior,
utilizing diagonal stiffener on web of steel profile to increase shear link performance in an …

Eccentrically braced frames are one of the most popular systems in buildings because they
provide both high stiffness and ductility to the structure. Other systems such as moment …

Slit dampers are a specific type of metallic yielding dampers, for which many studies have
been conducted in recent years, to investigate their behavior and possible applications in …

The design basis is being shifted from strength to deformation in modern performance-
based design codes. This paper presents a practical method for optimization of eccentrically …

Braced frames are prevalently utilized as lateral load resisting systems in common
engineering practice. disposable knee bracing (DKB) frames are categorized as one of the …

Abstract Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) have a capability of energy dissipation relying
on horizontal link beams in main frame. Use of vertical link (V-EBF) enhances system …

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 …

Eccentrically braced frames fabricated with high-strength steel (HSS-EBFs) are a new type
of seismic structural system. HSS-EBF systems can incorporate Q345 steel (nominal yield …

An analytical study was conducted to investigate the influence of the flange width–thickness
ratio on the rotation capacity of links in eccentrically braced frames. Finite element models …
