SEISMIC RETROFITTING BUCKLING RESTRAINED BRACE
A method and apparatus is disclosed for providing lateral support against buckling for a load-carrying inner core steel bar at a region between the end of a buckling restrained brace assembly and steel plates of structural frame joint assembly. Lateral support against buckling at the transition zone between a buckling restrained brace and a supporting frame member is provided through a specialized mechanical end brace comprising a plurality of lateral support structures configured for slidable inter-fitting engagement in response to axial deformation of a load-carrying inner core steel bar. In this manner, axial force is only carried by the load- carrying inner core steel core bar with continuous lateral restraint.
