This study endeavors to develop improved analytical methods for predicting the nonlinear static and dynamic response of multistory reinforced concrete frames. This report is limited to the study of the static response. A new approach in describing the nonlinear hysteretic behavior of reinforced concrete frame elements is proposed. This approach consists of isolating the basic mechanisms controlling the hysteretic behavior of girders and columns into individual subelements which are connected in series to form the girder or column superelement. Two particular subelement models are developed in this study: one describes the inelastic behavior along the girder accounting for the gradual spread of inelastic deformations at the girder ends, while the other models the fixed-end rotations that arise at the beam-column interface due to bond deterioration and slippage of reinforcing bars in the beam-column joint region. The properties of these elements can be derived from basic principles or refined finite element models.
