Seismic Force Demands on the Foundations of Concentrically Braced Frame Systems
Abstract
Concentrically braced frames (CBFs) are widely used as lateral force-resisting systems in North America. Canadian seismic design requirements for building foundations distinguish between two foundation types: capacity protected and non-capacity protected (commonly known as “rocking” foundation). For steel bracing systems such as CBFs, there are major ambiguities in how to calculate the foundation design forces, as the governing force for both …
