The purpose of this paper is to assess the influence of soil-structure interaction and site effects on the seismic behavior of steel moment-resisting frames, with a view to describing the underlying “physics” behind the damage mechanisms triggered. We exam ...
This paper proposes an innovative design concept for embedded column base (ECB) connections featuring wide flange steel columns. The developed ECB connection achieves a non-degrading hysteretic response up to lateral drift demands associated with low proba ...
Field observations and comprehensive life-cycle building assessment suggest that buildings designed according to today's seismic standards meet the life-safety requirement. However, they are prone to economic losses due to repairs in the aftermath of earth ...
Links in eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) with intermediate length are designed with transverse web stiffeners. Web stiffening is required because the common failure modes are associated with web buckling as well as flange and lateral torsional buckling. ...
Earthquake loss estimation in composite-steel moment resisting frames (MRFs) necessitates a proper estimation of the level of damage in steel beam-to-slab connections. These usually feature welded headed shear studs to ensure the composite action between t ...
Seismic performance assessment of new and existing steel structures based on nonlinear static (pushover) analysis necessitates the use of engineering‐oriented models that trace the nonlinear response of structural steel elements under static and cyclic loa ...
In order to effectively utilize results from quasi-static cyclic testing on structural components for the earthquake-induced collapse risk quantification of structures, the need exists to establish collapse-consistent loading protocols representing the asy ...
This paper presents results from 21 large-scale experiments on steel columns that examined their collapse behavior as related to steel moment resisting frames (MRFs). The test specimens included wide-flange and square hollow structural shapes (HSS) and wer ...
This paper summarizes preliminary findings of nonlinear simulations aiming to quantify the seismic demands of codecompliant steel MRFs with variable panel zone targeted shear distortions, 𝛾!. The probability of beam fractures is explicitly considered in th ...
In capacity-designed steel moment resisting frames (MRFs), column base connections feature a strong-base/weak-column design philosophy. Prior studies on fixed-end wide flange steel columns featuring seismically compact cross sections subjected to coupled a ...
