Open full text 3 citations

Abstract

In order to dissipate input earthquake energy in the moment resisting frame (MRF) and concentrically braced frame (CBF), inelastic deformation in main structural members, requires high expense to repair or replace the damaged structural parts.The proposed knee braced frame (KBF) is a steel frame structure in which the diagonal brace provide most of the lateral stiffness and the knee anchor that is a secondary member, provides ductility through flexural yielding.In this paper the results and analysis on affects of knee bracings on steel structure is provided by considering non linear static pushover analysis of knee braced framed structure .various parameters such as ductility , base shear , displacement is studied by analysis of moment resisting frame and other types of knee braced frames on Sap2000.finite element modelling software.
