Lateral Load–Drift Response and Limit States of Posttensioned Steel Beam-Column Connections: Parametric Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this study is to identify the significant parameters that influence the lateral load–drift response of steel posttensioned (PT) connections. In particular, the effects of variations in beam section size ...
Artificial Neural Network–Based Predictive Tool for Modeling of Self-Centering Endplate Connections with SMA Bolts
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Endplate moment connections with shape memory alloy (SMA) bolts provide self-centering for the seismic resilience of structures. Predicting the self-centering response of these new beam–column connections, which have not ...
Rocking Steel Column Base Connections Equipped with a Viscoplastic Damper for Seismic Resilience: Design, Modeling, and Response Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Past research efforts have developed several self-centering beam-to-column connections for minimizing structural damage in steel moment frames after severe earthquakes. However, less focus has been on low-damage column ...
