Performance Prediction and Evaluation of Steel Special Moment Frames for Seismic Loads
… effect of post-Northridge ductile connection, panel zone deformation and interior gravity frames. The 1973 UBC, 1985 UBC and 1994 UBC provisions were selected for the pre-Northridge 3-, 9- and 20-story buildings in Los Angeles and Seattle and designed for wind and seismic loads. A total of 15 …

Prediction of cracking in steel joint subjected to high cyclic strains
… more highly stressed area in the connections "panel zone" did not crack in the experiments, perhaps because of the more complex stress field and defect orientation to the tensile stresses in this location. The connection was improved by adding triangular bracing gussets, in the plane of the …

Modeling and Behavior of the Beam/Column Joint Region of Steel Moment Resisting Frames
The effect of panel zone (PZ) flexibility 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 …

Characterization of behavior of steel-concrete composite members and frames with applications for design
… Connections were assumed to be strong; however, panel zone behavior for the moment frames and bond-slip behavior for SRC columns were included in the model. Using the analysis results, system performance factors were developed for the composite frames based on the methodology described in FEMA …

Hybrid mathematical and informational modeling of beam-to-column connections
… Constitutive relationships of angles, column panel zones, and contact between angles and column flanges, are derived by using only material and geometric properties and theoretical mechanics considerations. Those of slip and bolt hole ovalization are simplified by empirically-suggested …
