Abstract:Moment resisting frames (MRFs) are one of the most favorable systems, thanks to their appropriate performance and sufficient geometric flexibility. Despite these advantages, MRFs have limitations such as low stiffness and certain code limitations. This paper provides the experimental and numerical results of a novel dual lateral load resisting system. This dual system is proposed to combine the flexural and shear nonlinear behavior of MRFs with different lengths. In the proposed dual system, MRFs are combined … Show more
