This paper presents the development and application of multi-axis pseudo-dynamic hybrid
simulation for evaluating the seismic stability of steel braced frame structures. The advanced …

Short links that primarily yield under shear are usually preferred in eccentrically braced
frames (EBFs) due to their high rotation and energy dissipation capacities. Long links that …

This paper aims to evaluate the seismic response of multitiered buckling-restrained braced
frames (MT-BRBFs), assess the design provisions specified by the 2022 AISC Seismic …

Few seismic design codes for industrial structures exist worldwide. Among them, the Chilean
design code was put to the test by the Maule earthquake of 2010, one of the largest seismic …

This paper presents two analysis methods for the in-plane seismic response of steel
multitiered braced frames (MT-BFs) with three or more tiers:(1) a substructuring technique; …

Eurocodes are currently under revision within a six-year program by CEN/TC 250. In this
framework, concentric bracings, particularly in cross configuration, have been largely …

This article investigates the seismic design and response of steel multi-tiered concentrically
braced frames (MT-BFs) in which braces meet at columns between diaphragms. The seismic …

Steel braced frames are characteristically efficient seismic force-resisting systems. However,
multi-story steel braced frames tend to concentrate demands in one or a few stories in …

In the seismic design of structures, the combinatorial effects of multiple horizontal ground
motion components are often determined using the 100/p% percentage rule (ie designs …

Steel multitiered concentrically braced frames (MT-CBFs) not specifically detailed for seismic
resistance with a response modification factor of R= 3 are permitted in moderate seismic …
