Full-Scale Pseudodynamic Testing of Self-Centering Steel Plate Shear Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the first full-scale experimental investigation of the self-centering steel plate shear wall (SC-SPSW) system. The SC-SPSW system is a lateral force-resisting system developed to provide system recentering ...

A Procedure for Assessing Low-Cycle Fatigue Life of Buckling-Restrained Braces
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Buckling-restrained brace frames (BRBFs) have been a popular seismic force-resisting system in the US since it was first introduced to the AISC Seismic Provisions and ASCE 7 in 2005. The steel core of a buckling-restrained ...
Experimental Investigation of Chevron Concentrically Braced Frames with Yielding Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Steel concentrically braced frames designed prior to the implementation of capacity design principles in seismic design provisions may exhibit poor inelastic response under seismic excitation. These older, nonductile ...
