Abstract:
Buckling-restrained braces are able to provide significant energy dissipation along with large ductile capacity through their excellent hysteretic behavior. However, due to their lack of recentering capability, buckling-restrained braced frames experience large residual drifts following a strong earthquake, leading to enormous repair costs. To overcome this shortcoming, super-elastic shape memory alloy braces with excellent recentering capacity have been introduced as a viable alternative to steel braces. Nevertheless, their energy dissipation capacity is usually low for seismic applications.

Abstract:
Buckling-Restrained Brace (BRB) consists of energy dissipative core and a strengthening tube to prevent buckling when subjected to compression. Under cyclic loading, BRB exhibits elastoplastic hysteretic behavior, which leads to certain amount of permanent displacement in the structure after medium to severe earthquake. Residual deformations can result in increased cost of repairing. An innovative BRB device called Self-centering Buckling-Restrained Braces (SC-BRB) is devised to control maximum and residual drift of steel moment frame buildings subjected earthquakes.

Abstract:
The paper proposes a displacement-based design method for seismic retrofit of RC buildings using hysteretic dissipative braces. At first, a fully multimodal procedure based on an adaptive version of the capacity spectrum method is applied to the 3D model of the damped braced structure. Then, the properties of an idealized bilinear model are defined using the seismic characteristics of the compound system thus accounting for the frame-damped brace interaction. Finally, an iterative procedure is developed to provide an optimal distribution of dampers. The proposed method overcomes the limitation

In this work, seismic performance of conventional X-braced frames is enhanced by using Drawer Bracing Systems (DBS). DBS is an innovative structure, which increases ductility and energy absorption capacity of the X-braces through elimination of the harmful effects of local and global buckling and by converting the induced axial forces inside diagonal arms to flexural moments. Two half-scale specimens are tested under cyclic loading and the seismic performance of an X-shaped DBS is compared to that of an X-braced frame.

Abstract:
According to modern seismic codes, in concentrically braced frames the seismic input energy should be dissipated by means of the hysteretic behaviour of braces while all the other members (i.e. beams and columns) have to remain elastic. Accordingly, the design internal forces of braces are determined in these codes by elastic analysis of the structure subjected to seismic forces obtained by the design spectrum. The internal forces of the non-dissipative members, instead, are calculated by means of specified rules for the application of capacity design principles. According to some recent numer

Adding a sectional area to the brace is one method for strengthening. Accordingly, the axial load is able to be distributed over a larger area, which may reduce the axial stress in the brace.

Abstract:
Three story–three bay reinforced concrete (RC) frames with and without chevron braces were tested using the continuous pseudodynamic test method. New steel–concrete composite lateral load–carrying members called Buckling Restrained Braces (BRBs) were used as chevron brace members while retrofitting the RC frame. The BRBs were fitted to the interior span of the RC frame by using anchorage rods. The chevron braced frame was observed to be effective in controlling interstory drift. The test results indicated that retrofitting with BRBs was beneficial in resisting deformation without significant d

Abstract:
This paper mainly deals with seismic response and performance for self-centering friction damping braces (SFDBs) subjected to several maximum- or design-leveled earthquake ground motions. The self-centering friction damping brace members consist of core recentering components fabricated with superelastic shape memory alloy wires and energy dissipation devices achieved through shear friction mechanism. As compared to the conventional brace members for use in the steel concentrically braced frame structure, these self-centering friction damping brace members make the best use of their representa

Abstract:
Steel concentrically braced frames (CBFs) and Steel eccentricity braced frames (EBFs) are frequently used as efficient lateral load resisting systems to resist earthquake and wind loads. This paper focuses on high seismic applications where the brace members in CBFs and EBFs dissipate energy through repeated cycles of buckling and yielding. The present study evaluates in detail the design philosophies and provisions used in the United States for these systems. The results of a total of 176 analysis of nonlinear history of seismic behavior of CBFs and EBFs braces have been presented. Notable di

Abstract:
Self-centering braces are structural systems that help reduce structural drift when the structure is under the influence of seismic forces. This paper introduces a novel self-centering brace designed to enhance the seismic performance of structures, while also minimizing permanent deflection after an earthquake. The advantages of this brace include easy construction, compatibility with construction practices in Iran, affordability, high capacity for axial force, efficient energy dissipation, adaptability for development, and applicability in various structures. The proposed brace components ar

Abstract:
Evens came up with the term "auxetics" in the 1990s. It is used to describe materials and structures with a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) that shrink or grow in an unusual way when put under uniaxial compression and tension. These materials have different mechanical properties, such as a high shear bearing capacity, resistance to breaking, ability to absorb energy, and resistance to falling apart. But because auxetics often have holes in them, they are often much less stiff than solid structures. Although these shapes should function well under both static and dynamic loading conditions as en

Abstract:
In this research, a seismic retrofitting method for chevron-braced frames (CBFs) is proposed. The key idea here is to prevent the buckling of the chevron braces via a conventional construction technique that involves a hysteretic energy-dissipating element installed between the braces and the connected beam. The energy-dissipating element is designed to yield prior to buckling of the braces, thereby preventing the lateral stiffness and strength degradation of the CBF caused by buckling, while effectively dissipating the earthquake input energy.
