A review of Research on Seismic Performance of Steel Eccentrically Braced Frames in Prefabricated Buildings

Abstract

Prefabricated steel structure is a type of green building, which conforms to the development process of building industrialization. The hysteretic behavior, bearing capacity, rotational capacity and energy dissipation of semi-rigid joint and eccentric supports of beam and column are being summarized. At present, there are few researches on the aseismic performance and failure mechanism of beam column semi-rigid connection applied to eccentrically support steel frames.
