With the aim of damage control, a new earthquake-resilient prefabricated column-flange
beam-column joint (PCFBCJ) had been presented for the connection between column …

Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) can be re-used after a major seismic event by replacing
the link members. Recent years have witnessed the development of numerous replaceable …

Prefabricated tension-only concentrically braced beam-through frames (BTFs) have
received popularity for low-rise steel buildings in low to moderate seismic regions. However …

The reinforced concrete columns and steel beams (RCS) composite frames have received
popularity in low to moderate seismic regions due to advantages of the system. However …

This study proposes high-strength steel framed-tube structures fused with replaceable shear
links (HSS-FTSLs) to improve the seismic performance and post-earthquake reparability of …

The stiffeners, also known as ribs, have a great influence on the behavior of the extended
end-plate connections. The end-plate connections can be idealized by making use of …

A reinforced concrete column and steel beam (RCS) hybrid frame structure with replaceable
members was proposed in this paper. Non-linear pushover analyses were conducted to …

A multi-section replaceable energy-dissipating beam (MRB) is developed for a hybrid frame
structure with energy-dissipation frames (HF-EDFs), which is designed to satisfy the space …

In this paper, earthquake-induced economic loss of buildings with the eccentrically braced
frame as the lateral load resisting system is investigated. Economic loss in this paper …

Seismic design of structures is one of the most complex engineering sciences, in addition,
the approaches that are currently used for analysis and design increase this complexity …
