Effect of seismic loading on steel moment resisting frames
In recent history, the use of Steel Moment Resisting Frames (SMRF) in many structural steel buildings has become popular among many engineers and designers. The use of these moment resisting frames allows for more open spaces between floors and columns than in buildings that use the more …

Modeling and Behavior of the Beam/Column Joint Region of Steel Moment Resisting Frames
… and yielding on the stiffness and strength of steel moment resisting frames (SMRF) has been the topic of numerous papers over the past thirty years. When properly detailed, the PZ is an excellent source of energy dissipation, even under large inelastic deformations. Due to these large inelastic …

Use of Incremental Dynamic Analysis to Assess the Performance of Steel Moment-Resisting Frames with Fluid Viscous Dampers
… Analysis to assess the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames with fluid viscous dampers subjected to earthquake ground motions. The study systematically investigated the effects of linear and nonlinear dampers on the response of steel moment-resisting frames to earthquakes that …

Seismic Design Studies of Low-Rise Steel Frames
… inelastic behavior of low-rise buildings with steel moment-resisting frames providing the lateral resistance for strong ground motions was examined. The inelastic behavior of frames is dependent on several parameters such as design base shear, beam-to-column strength ratio, moment-resisting …

Evaluating the Effect of Decking Fasteners on the Seismic Behavior of Steel Moment Frame Plastic Hinge Regions
A series of full-scale beam-to-column moment connection tests were completed to determine the effects of powder actuated fasteners (PAF) and puddle welds on the seismic behavior of steel moment connections. In seismic regions, PAF are currently prohibited in the connection region (referred to as …

The Effects of Shear Deformation in Rectangular and Wide Flange Sections
… considered in structural analysis of beams and frames. But shear deformations in members with low clear span-to-member depth ratio will be higher than normally expected, thus adversely affecting the stiffness of these members. Inclusion of shear deformation in analysis requires the values of …
