Analytical Pushover Curves for X-Concentric Braced Steel Frames

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
In this work, analytical pushover curves for concentric braced steel frames with active tension diagonal bracings (X-CBF) are proposed. A pushover “spindle”, characterized by two trilinear analytical capacity curves defined for an X-CBF system subjected ...
