نویسندگان
چکیده
Through the pseudo-static test on the steel truss coupling beams with buckling-restrained brace, the bearing capacity, deformation capacity, hysteresis curve, skeleton curve, ductility, Energy Dissipation and stiffness degradation of such coupling beam are understood. The test results show that the steel truss coupling beams with buckling-restrained brace is characterized by bigger bearing capacity, higher ductility and good plastic energy dissipation capacity.

Comparison of Seismic Behavior of Buckling-restrained Braces and Yielding Brace System in Irregular and Regular Steel Frames under Mainshock and Mainshock-Aftershock
Due to low stiffness of braces after yielding, the structures with buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) experience high residual drifts during an earthquake, which can be intensified by aftershocks and causes considerable damages to structures. Also, due to poor distribution of stiffness, this problem is exacerbated for irregular structures. Recently, the yielding brace system (YBS) has been intro...

The Behavior of conventional braced frames, are not the same in tension and compression. This problem can be improved by prevention of buckling under compressive loads, which is called buckling restrained brace(BRB). In this field TTD metal damper also have much attention due to simplicity in construction and execution. This damper is recommended because of accessing to better performance than ...

The present study assesses the seismic performance of steel moment resisting frames (SMFs) retrofitted with different bracing systems. Two structural configurations were utilized: ordinary concentrically braces (OCBFs), buckling-restrained braces (BRBFs). A 7-story and 18-story steel perimeter SMFs were designed with insufficient lateral stiffness to satisfy code drift limitations in high seism...

Due to the fact that the buckling-restrained brace core yields subject to both tension and compression, it can adsorb energy and exhibit high ductility rendering it proper for tolerating earthquake loads. One of the important objectives of seismic standards is safeguarding the appropriate ductility for the structures because the structures, in case of being ductile, can dissipate a considerable...
