Analytical evaluation of shear link capacity in EBF: Beam-truss action analogy

Results in Engineering
This study introduces a simple analogical method to predict the ultimate shear-link strength of the eccentrically braced steel frame (EBF) system. Prior research highlighted the discrepancies between measured and predicted shear link strength in existing
