Innovative Techniques of Response Control
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
The seismic response of a steel structure is heavily affected by the behavior of the connections between the different members. A semi-rigid frame is a steel frame that contains semi-rigid connections. These semi-rigid connections are expected to provide the inelastic yielding and ductility that a building will need during a major earthquake. In the past, semi rigid frames have been used to provide lateral stiffness against wind-loads, but not against seismic loads in highly seismic areas.
This project investigates the use of semi-rigid-frame seismic loads. This final report explains the research done over the past year of a multi-year project. This past year had two independent but inter-related studies. The larger study was a parametric analysis of the influence of different connection parameters on the overall global response of a structure. The smaller study was a laboratory experiment to determine the behavior of a single feature of the semi-rigid frame. The feature chosen was the steel welded shear stud between the steel beam and the concrete slab.
