[ 1 ] - Seismic Behavior Effect of Knee Braced Frames Considering Different Type of Geometry under Non-Linear Analysis

The design and behavior of a ductile structural system called a knee-braced moment frame are presented in this paper. The design of this structural system is based on a capacity-design concept that results in ductile behavior. The knee part is a fuse-like component that dissipates energy by the formation of plastic flexural and/or shear hinges at its ends and mid-span, when the building is subj...
