The use of steel X-bracing combined with shear link to seismically upgrading reinforced concrete frames
Abstract This study examines the feasibility of utilizing steel concentrically X-bracing rigidly connected to shear link to retrofit seismically defected reinforced concrete (RC) frames. It involves examining the lateral behavior of two hypothetical frames strengthened using this proposed system, a...
