RISPerformance of Steel Buildings with Pretensioned Steel Cable Braces under Seismic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concentric braced frames are one of the most effective measures for controlling damages induced by earthquakes in buildings. In compression, conventional concentric hot-rolled steel braces buckle under seismic loading, ...
Theoretical Study of Self-Balancing Pretensioned CFRP Cable Braces for Seismic Resistance of Buildings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Earthquakes cause nonstructural, if not structural, damage to buildings. This damage is proportional to interstory drift (ISD). Concentric braced frames (CBFs) are one of the most effective measures to limit the ISD in ...
