Performance assessment of special concentrically-braced frames in moderate seismic regions
… systems are a type of CBF commonly used in high seismic regions because they are designed to permit large inelastic drifts. Ductile detailing and capacity design requirements ensure braces are the main source of energy dissipation in the system. While the design of SCBFs in high seismic regions …

Evaluation of structural systems for mass timber buildings in low to moderate seismic regions
… structures and their lateral systems in low to moderate seismic regions. Boston, MA has been chosen as the location for a feasibility analysis of 8-, 12-, and 18- story mass timber structures. These building prototypes are used to compare the structural and environmental efficiencies and …

Inelastic behavior and seismic collapse prevention performance of low-ductility steel braced frames
Seismic-force-resisting systems (SFRSs) in areas of low and moderate seismicity such as the east coast of the United States have minimal ductility. Unlike high-ductility systems, whose design encompasses extensive seismic detailing and proportioning requirements to provide said ductility, the …
