Remarks on Seismic Design Rules of EC8 for Inverted-V CBFs
Chevron concentrically braced frames (C-CBFs) are expected to provide limited ductility in the framework of Eurocode 8: differently from North American codes, lower values of behavior factors are recommended by EN 1998 for C-CBFs than for other concentric bracing configurations (namely diagonal and cross bracings). The research presented in this paper is aimed at revising the design rules and requirements provided for by EN 1998-1 for C-CBFs in order to improve the ductility and the dissipative capacity of this structural system. The proposed design criteria are validated by means of nonlinear dynamic analyses performed on a study case. The results confirm the effectiveness of developed design procedure.
