Moment frame connector
A lateral bracing system is disclosed for affixing a column to a beam in a construction. The lateral bracing system includes a pair of buckling restraint blocks (112, 116, 212, 216), one each affixed to a top and bottom flange of a beam (102, 110). Each buckling restraint block (112, 116, 212, 216) includes one or more bores (260) formed through a center of the block. The lateral bracing system further includes at least one yield link (114, 214) for each buckling restraint block. Each yield link (114, 214) includes a first end affixed to the column (104), and a second end fit through a bore in a buckling restraint block and affixed to an end of the buckling restraint block.
