Seismic Retrofitting of Steel Frames with Buckling Restrained Braces
Buckling-restrained braced frames (BRBFs) are used as primary lateral load resisting systems forbuildings in high seismic areas. The main characteristics of buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) are enhancedenergy dissipation potential, excellent ductility and nearly symmetrical hysteretic response in t...
