Experimental Evaluation of Pinned Frame Equipped with Ribbed Bracing System
This study presents the experimental investigation of half-scale, one-story, one-bay pinned frames equipped with a ribbed bracing system (RBS). The RBS is a newly developed passive control system designed to eliminate buckling and enhance the seismic behavior of structures. Here, mechanical models of this bracing system were designed and constructed. Pinned frames equipped with the RBS were cyclically tested. The hysteretic behavior and energy absorbing capacities of the frames were evaluated. Based on the results, the full plastic capacity of the brace was achieved and no buckling occurred. The RBS frame illustrated proper hysteretic behavior and energy dissipation capacity up to 4% story drift.
