Finite Element Parametric Analysis of High-Strength Eccentrically Braced Steel Frame with Variable-Cross-Section Replaceable Link

This paper proposes a new type of variable-cross-section replaceable link that can isolate the plastic deformation. The link and the frame beam connect with the expanding section by a bolt along the flange and web separately. It is easy to design an elastic bolt, reduce bolt slippage, and facilitate...
