This paper examines the seismic behaviour of steel Multi-Tiered Concentrically Braced Frames (MT-CBFs) Conventional Construction category (Type CC) in moderate regions eastern Canada and proposes a new design method for such structures. A total 32 prototype MT-CBFs part single-storey building are selected designed accordance with 2019 Canadian standard (CSA S16-19) provisions Type CC structures...

The capacity of a structure can be assessed using inelastic analyses, requiring sophisticated numerical procedures such as pushover and incremental dynamic analyses. A simplified method for the evaluation seismic performance steel Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) to used in everyday practice immediate aftermath an earthquake has been recently proposed. This evaluates existing building employ...

Aktif deprem bölgelerinde yaygın kullanılan süneklik düzeyi yüksek çelik merkezi çaprazlı çerçeveler (MÇÇ) için güncel Amerikan, Kanada ve Türkiye sismik tasarım yönetmeliklerinde tasvir edilen kapasite tasarımı yaklaşımına göre, MÇÇ’lerdeki kolon kirişler, çaprazların doğrusal olmayan çevrimsel davranışını göz önüne alan, iki farklı yapısal analiz gözetilerek tasarlanmaktadır. Bu hallerinde al...

Background: The special concentrically braced frame (SCBF) is an aseismic structure, but its bracing system exhibits brittle failure and premature buckling connected with the weld fracture of gusset plate post-buckling braces; thus, maximizing role energy dissipation difficult. Methods: Here, this paper proposes a single-story frames ductile casting steel connectors. large inelastic deformation...
