Design overstrength of steel eccentrically braced frames
The paper reports an analytical study on the design overstrength of steel eccentrically braced frames (EBFs). The study aimed at examining the influence of geometrical factors and seismic hazard on the design overstrength of EBFs. Pursuant to this goal a computer program which facilitates EBF designs was developed.

The influence of the axial restraint on the overstrength of short links
Abstract Eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) constitute a good structural solution located between Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) and Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) because they exhibit an adequate lateral stiffness joined with a high ductility capacity, especially for what concerns short and very short links.

Overstrength of large-scale dowelled connections in CLT [PDF]
This paper presents an evaluation of overstrength based on an experimental study on large-scale dowelled connections in Cross Laminated Timber (CLT). In order to avoid brittle failure and ensure that ductile system behaviour and energy dissipation can be achieved under seismic loading, the overstrength of specified ductile components needs to be well ...
