Steel Braces: Out-of-plane imperfection
I study seismic performance of steel braced frames. To do so, I model a 2D frame but in order to capture the compression out-of-plane flexural buckling of the braces, I perform a full 3D analysis. Lateral support at work points were added to account for global stability. In order to trigger the out ...
