Abstract

Buckling-restrained braced frame (BRBF) is a newly developed steel braced frame system for seismic resistance.Since buckling-restrained brace (BRB) can yield in both tension and compression without buckling,the disadvantages of the conventional braced frame system can be overcome.This paper is devoted to the behavior of BRBs at the component,the subassembly and the system levels.Testing requirements as well as seismic design procedures proposed by SEAOC-AISC are also presented.
