Abstract:

This paper provides an assessment of the seismic performance of a code-designed buckling restrained braced frame building using the performance-based analysis procedures prescribed in ASCE 41-06. The building was designed based on the standards of the ASCE 7-05 for a typical office building located in San Francisco, CA. Nonlinear modeling parameters and acceptance criteria for buckling restrained brace components were developed to match ASCE 41-06 design standards for structural steel components, since buckling restrained braces are not currently included in ASCE 41-06. The building was evalua

The performance-based analysis methods and evaluation criteria in ASCE 41-06 were used to evaluate a special concentric braced frame building based on the design standards in ASCE 7-05.

The results showed that the linear procedures underestimated damage compared to the nonlinear procedures, with the building performing to Life Safety for the linear procedures, and the nonlinear procedures indicating component damage beyond the intended Life Safety limi

Abstract:

Concentrically-braced frames (CBFs) are among the most common seismic force resisting systems (SFRSs) used in Canada and across the world. In single-storey applications, these braces are often paired with a flexible steel diaphragm as a means of effectively transferring the seismic forces through the SFRS. Seismic loads are determined using the 2010 NBCC, while the design and detailing requirements for CBFs are provided by the CSA S16-09 Standard. The capacity design philosophy is used, in which one element in the SFRS is designed to undergo large inelastic deformations in the event of a stron

Cast modular components have been under development for earthquake resistant steel structures. These concepts take advantage of the versatility in geometry afforded with the casting process to create components specifically configured for ductile behavior. Two systems were developed as part of this dissertation research: (1) the Cast Modular Ductile Bracing system (CMDB); (2) the Floating Brace system (FB).The CMDB system makes use of cast components introduced at the ends and the center of the brace to produce a special bracing detail with reliable strength, stiffness and deformation capacity

Abstract:

It is possible to reduce residual and maximum drifts in buildings by adding “elastic stories” that engage gravity columns in seismic response. An elastic story is a story wherein the buckling restrained brace frame (BRBF) size is increased to prevent yielding when an earthquake occurs. Buildings ranging from 4–16 stories were designed with various elastic story brace sizes and locations to determine the optimal combination to best reduce drifts. Gravity column stiffnesses were also varied in elastic story buildings to determine the effects on drifts. Computer models were used to analyze these

Modern seismic codes and provisions recommend R-Factors for many types of lateral force resisting systems.

Ductile braced frames are often used to resist lateral earthquake loads in steel buildings; however the presence of a brace element can sometimes interfere with architectural features. One common type of ductile braced frame system sometimes used to accommodate architectural features is the eccentrically braced frame (EBF). In order to dissipate seismic forces, EBF beam regions (called links) must sustain large inelastic deformations. EBF links with column connections must transmit large moments and shear forces to facilitate link rotation. Experiments have shown that welded link-to-column con

Abstract:

碩士<br>臺灣大學<br>土木工程學研究所<br>98<br>The present study of this thesis is focus on the seismic performance of a gusset plate subjected to frame action in Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames (BRBF). In order to test the stress concentration effects on gusset palte edges induced by frame action, an equivalent sturt model was proposed to estimate the frame action forces on a gusset plate, and a new design criteria by considering frame action and brace action simultanesly was proposed. In order to interpret the difference of each design methods, i.e. the AISC design method, or the design method by con
