Seismic Design and Response of Framed Structures with Stiffening Bracing Systems
Stiffening Bracing System (SBS) is proposed as an alternative to conventional braced frames. SBS is intended to reduce the floor accelerations while maintaining uniform inter-story drift along the building height. The system ensures that additional damping devices distributed over the building’s height work efficiently. An iterative design procedure is developed to maintain a desired target performance. The procedure accounts for higher mode effects and supplemental damping. A series of nonlinear response history analyses on braced frames with various heights demonstrated the adequacy of the proposed procedure in achieving target structural performance and seismic demand prediction.
