Abstract:In order to assess the boundaries of the simultaneous demands on the column members of Special Moment Frames (SMFs), a thorough investigation in the following research were performed on several different archetype frames. Beside the boundaries of the simultaneous seismic demands, the fluctuation of these demands was also analyzed after numerous non-linear dynamic analyses on sample SMFs. These analyses paved the way to establish a representative framework for loading the column members in order to repr… Show more
