PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OF EBF
USING TARGET DRIFT AND YIELD MECHANISM
AS PERFORMANCE CRITERIA
Eccentric braced steel frames (EBFs) are very efficient structures for resisting earthquakes as they combine the ductility of that is haracteristic of moment frames and the stiffness associated with braced frames. In the EBFs inelastic activity is confined to a small length of the floor beams which yields mostly in shear (therefore called the shear link). Capacity design approach is followed in an attempt to limit the inelastic activity to the shear links only while all other frame members are designed to behave elastically. Research work carried out during the seventies and eighties led to the formulation of design code provisions. However, current design practice generally follows elastic analysis procedures in proportioning the frame members. Therefore, it is possible that yielding in the shear links may not be uniformly distributed along the height of the structure and may be concentrated in a few floors causing excessive inelastic deformations at those levels, accompanied by significant plastic hinging in the columns.

Encompassing theory and field experience, this book covers all the main subject areas in earthquake risk reduction, ranging from geology, seismology, structural and soil dynamics to hazard and risk assessment, risk management and planning, engineering and the architectural design of new structures and equipment.
Earthquake Risk Reduction
outlines individual national weaknesses that contribute to earthquake risk to people and property;
calculates the seismic response of soils and structures, using the structural continuum ‘Subsoil - Substructure - Superstructure - Non-structure’;
evaluates the effectiveness of given designs and construction procedures for reducing casualties and financial losses;
provides guidance on the key issue of choice of structural form;
presents earthquake resistant designs methods for the four main structural materials - steel, concrete, reinforced masonry and timber - as well as for services equipment, plant and non-structural architectural components;
contains a chapter devoted to problems involved in improving (retrofitting) the existing built environment.
