This book was released on 2011 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New innovations in seismic load resisting systems have recognized the approach of isolating inelastic deformations to primary, permanently attached components may, in fact, be flawed. The current design approach is to provide systems that withstand relatively large story drifts, while experiencing controlled inelastic deformations to dissipate energy. By isolating inelastic deformations to easily accessible, bolted components that can be relatively inexpensively removed and replaced, a serviceable seismic system can be achieved. This research investigates the viability of a fully bolted configuration of a buckling restrained brace frame (BRBF). It contains the results of two full-scale BRBF one-bay, one-story frame tests. The frame connections were detailed such that after a major seismic event the brace would absorb most of the inelastic energy. The brace acts as the replaceable "fuse" in the serviceable system, being the only primary structural component replaced from one test to the next. The Appendix T of ANSI/AISC 341-05 (AISC 341, 2005) translation/drift test regime was used. The first BRB (WC 250) and connections performed well and the system illustrated robust and stable hysteric behavior. The frame was re-plumbed and another brace (WC 200) was installed. This research contains the test description and results for global behavior for the frame and local strains in areas of interest. It was demonstrated that the connection details can accommodate the significant drift requirements. The information from these tests was used to develop recommendations for proportioning and configuring the members and connections.

Download or read book Capacity Design Methods for Strongback Braced Frames written by Peter C. Talley and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When subjected to strong earthquake ground motions, conventional steel braced frames are vulnerable to soft-story mechanisms, whereby the weakest story accumulates more damage relative to the rest of the structure. This reduces the overall strength of the structure, increases the cost of repairs, and can cause issues during the design process due to the reduced redundancy of the system. One method for mitigating this behavior is the use of an elastic spine frame. These frames combine a stiff vertical "spine", such as a truss or shear wall, with a more ductile, energy-dissipating system. The spine typically spans the height of the structure and is designed to remain elastic, distributing earthquake demands across the height of the structure and bridging weak stories. One proposed elastic spine frame is the "strongback" braced frame, which merges a steel buckling-restrained braced frame and an elastic truss, using the buckling-restrained braces for energy dissipation and the truss for force distribution. However, strongback braced frames do not have well-established design criteria. Specifically, there is no generally accepted method for ensuring that the strongback remains elastic, and seismic performance factors have not been developed. Additionally, conventional capacity design underestimates the demands on the spine. It is desirous to have a method for design of these frames that hews closely to existing methods utilizing the equivalent lateral force method. This thesis presents the first phase of a study to address these gaps in the design provisions and to better understand the behavior of this system. A suite of building frames which employ the strongback system were designed with the intent of using them as the basis for parametric analytical studies in the second phase. The suite of frames was selected using the requirements of FEMA P695, the state-of-the-art method for determining seismic performance factors. Three alternative capacity design methods were developed and compared to basic capacity design to identify which is best suited to efficiently achieve the performance objectives. The methods were evaluated for efficiency in the design process, and for feasibility of the resulting designs. However, evaluation of performance objectives is the goal of future study.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete-filled buckling restrained braces (BRBs) was first developed in 1988 in Tokyo, Japan, to prevent the steel plates in the core portion from buckling, leading the steel core to exhibiting a more stable and fully hysteretic loop than conventional steel braces. However, past studies have shown that buckling restrained braced frames (BRBFs) have a large residual deformation after a median or high seismic event due to steel's residual strain. In order to address this issue, innovative self-centering SMA braces are proposed and installed in the originally unbraced bays in existing BRBFs to become a hybrid frame system where the existing steel BRBs dissipate energy induced by external forces and the newly added self-centering SMA braces restore the building configuration after the steel BRBs yield. A case study of conventional three-story BRBF retrofitted by the proposed self-centering SMA braces is carried out to develop systematic retrofit strategies, to investigate the structural behavior, and to probabilistically assess their seismic performance in terms of interstory drifts, residual drifts, and brace deformation, as compared to the original steel BRB frames. Finally, the developed brace component fragility curves and system fragility curves will be further used for the assessment of downtime and repair cost.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems have limited drift capacity prior to brace buckling, and related damage leads to deterioration in strength and stiffness. CBFs are also susceptible to weak story failure. A pin- supported self-centering friction-damped braced frame system with buckling-restrained columns (FDBF-BRC) is being developed to provide significant drift capacity while limiting damage due to residual drift and soft-story mechanisms. The FDBF-BRC system consists of beams, columns, and braces branching off a central column, with buckling restrained columns (BRCs) incorporated into the system at the first story external column positions. The BRCs and friction generated at lateral-load bearings at each floor level are used to dissipate energy to minimize the overall seismic response of the FDBF-BRC system. Vertically aligned post-tensioning bars provide additional overturning moment resistance and aid in self-centering the system to eliminate residual drift. The pin support condition and the lateral stiffness of the system enable it to exhibit a nearly uniform inter-story drift distribution. In this study, a suite of 44 DBE-level ground motions used in FEMA P695 is numerically applied to several FDBF- BRCs to demonstrate the seismic performance of the system. The results show that the FDBF-BRC system has a nearly uniform inter-story drift response, high ductility, and a high energy dissipation capacity, and is an effective seismic-resistant system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hazards of seismic activity on building structures require that engineers continually look for new and better methods of resisting seismic forces. Buckling restrained braced frames (BRBF) are a relatively new lateral force resisting system developed to resist highly unpredictable seismic forces in a very predictable way. Generally, structures with a more ductile lateral force resisting system perform better in resisting high seismic forces than systems with more rigid, brittle elements. The BRBF is a more ductile frame choice than special concentrically braced frames (SCBF). The ductility is gained through brace yielding in both compression and tension. The balanced hysteretic curve this produces provides consistent brace behavior under extreme seismic loads. However regular use of the BRB is largely limited to Japan where the brace type was first designed. The wide acceptance of buckling restrained braced frames requires the system to become easily designable, perform predictably, and common to engineers. This report explains the design process to help increase knowledge of the design and background. This report also details a comparison of a BRBF to a SCBF to give familiarity and promote confidence in the system. The design process of the BRBF is described in detail with design calculations of an example frame. The design process is from the AISC Seismic Provisions with the seismic loads calculated according to ASCE 7 equivalent lateral force procedure. The final members sizes of the BRBF and SCBF are compared based on forces and members selected. The results of the parametric study are discussed in detail.
