Abstract-A reduced beam section with a bolted web connection (RBS-B) is permitted for use only in Intermediate Moment Frames (IMF). In order to investigate whetherWhen a moment frame experiences brittle connection fracture, the seismic response demands on the remaining frame element increase substantially, increasing the probability of undesirable seismic response. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the seismic performance of IMFs buildings with RBS-B connections designed in accordance with current design code requirements [3].In order to investigate whether IMF systems with RBS-B connections provide satisfactory seismic performance, a seismic performance evaluation based on the procedure specified in FEAM-P695 [2] is conducted in this study. Four 3-, 6-, 9-, and 20-story model buildings with RBS-B
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
