Moment Resistant Frames vs. Braced Frames -Steel Consumption Assessment and Structural Analysis Parameters
Selection of an appropriate structural system in steel structures is one of the factors affecting the weight of consumed steel and consequently, the economics of the project. In this paper, buildings with similar plans in 4, 8, 12 and 16 stories were modeled with different structural systems and factors such as the effect of regulation control for steel structure weight and maximum roof displacement, structure frame weight and values of base shear are explored. As a result of increase in expenditures corresponding to building of steel structures, presenting an optimal and appropriate structural plan resulting in maintenance of safety and reduction of consumed steel contributes to project cost reduction. In this paper, moment resistant frames vs. braced frames - steel consumption and structural analysis parameters were evaluated. In other words, it is attempted to evaluate and compare the weight of consumed steel and important structural parameters of the building in two systems; braced frames and moment frames. For this purpose, a building with 27.8×20.6 m cross section and 4, 8, 12 and 16 stories is modeled and studied. Results reveal that for buildings having up to 8 stories, braced frames are preferred and as height increases, utilization of moment frames leads to more optimized weight of consumed steel.
