The purpose of this series studies is to propose an assurance design method connection in wooden wall structure calculated on allowable stress and verify its validity. In paper, connecting systems used at the bottom column are classified according bending resisting mechanism, then calculation for tension moment several types connections depending their rocking behavior proposed. As a result com...

large panel precast structures are analyzed based on the connection rigidity. however, the connections undergo nonlinear and inelastic response, when subjected to seismic loads. thus, to study the actual behavior of structure, the connection nonlinearity should be implemented in the joints. in this paper, three conventional connection types are modeled based on the envelope of their cyclic resp...

Modular systems have been mostly researched in relatively low-rise structures but, lately, their applications to mid- to high-rise structures began to be reviewed, and research interest in new modularization subjects has increased. The application of modular systems to mid- to high-rise structures requires the structural stability of the frame and connections that consist of units, and the eval...

In the Northridge and Kobe earthquakes, brittle failure of welded beam-to-column connections was observed in steel structures. So, bolted were considered as an alternative to these kinds connections. Extended end-plate con-nection is one most commonly used structure. this article, behavior sloped extended studied. Finite element method investigate connection by ABAQUS software. The main aim stu...

The seismic performance of elliptic braced moment resisting frame (ELBRF) is assessed here and is found that the structural behavior is improved and is of free of architectural space. The demand for seismic performance of ELBRF is estimated through conventional pushover methods of 3, 5, 7, and 10-story ELBRF frames and they are compared with special moment resisting frames (SMRF) and X-Braced C...

In design steel frames, combining semi-rigid and rigid connections can result in better structural performance, particularly seismic locations. this study, the effects of beam-to-column located on performance frame structures are investigated. The analysis uses six twelve-story moment resisting frames (MRSF) with rigid, semi-rigid, dual beam-column connections. These designed according to Egypt...

The nonlinear seismic responses of 3D steel buildings with perimeter moment resisting frames (PMRF) and interior gravity frames (IGF) are studied explicitly considering the contribution of the IGF. The effect on the structural response of the stiffness of the beam-to-column connections of the IGF, which is usually neglected, is also studied. It is commonly believed that the flexibility of shear...
