Cyclic and Explosive Evaluation of New Proposed Steel Joint

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2016
The behaviour of a novel steel beam-to-column connection, the saddlebag, subjected to cyclic and progressive collapse, was evaluated in this paper. The cyclic behaviour considered the interstory drift angle and flexural strength in accordance with 2010 ...
