An extensive investigation of the international literature is carried out regarding the passive
energy dissipation systems and more specifically the dampers that can be positioned in …

This state-of-the-art review comprehensively evaluates the seismic design and performance
assessment of concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems, specifically focusing on special …

This paper presents an analytical study on seismic performance of special concentrically
braced frames (SCBFs) with and without brace buckling. It demonstrates that the collapse …

A novel bracing method to strengthen the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC)
frames was developed in the study. The brace was made using steel reinforced ultra-high …

Special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs) are commonly used for seismic design of
buildings. Their large elastic stiffness and strength efficiently sustains the seismic demands …

Steel concentrically braced frames designed prior to the implementation of capacity design
principles in seismic design provisions may exhibit poor inelastic response under seismic …

Concentrically braced frames (CBFs) comprise a large proportion of lateral-force-resisting
systems used in steel building infrastructure around the world. Many categories of CBFs …

Steel concentrically braced frames (CBFs) are frequently used as efficient lateral load
resisting systems to resist earthquake and wind loads. This paper focuses on high seismic …

Special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs) are commonly used as lateral-load-resisting
systems in seismic regions. Chevron (or inverted V-braced) SCBFs are used to …

Conventional buckling braces are the most commonly used steel bracing systems but are
characterized by intense local midlength buckling that leads to unstable energy dissipation …
