Ductile Fuse for Special Concentrically Braced Frames and Related Methods
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a structural improvement in braced frame structures. An exemplary solution involves heat-treating a mid-section region of a steel brace, the steel brace comprising hollow structural sections tubing; after heat-treating the mid-section region, cooling the mid-section region of the steel brace; wherein the heat-treated steel brace has changed mechanical properties due to the heat-treatment, the changed mechanical properties including improved material ductility, work hardening ability, and notch toughness; and coupling the heat-treated steel brace to a gusset plate within a braced building frame structure without need of gusset plate reinforcement.
