Seismic performance of moment resisting frames with flexible joints
Abstract
An analytical study was conducted to investigate the effect of joint flexibility, in particular extended end-plate joints, on the response of moment resisting frames. Eight storey frames having extended end-plate joints and with joints detailed according to different design criteria, were analysed for different earthquake records using a step-by-step time history analysis. Realistic models developed from an extensive experimental research …
