How can i calibrate the concentrate plastic hinge from experimental data?

Dear STKO Team:
i am trying to build a plane model ,it's about a three story and two bay steel frame; but the beam section is not same along the entire beam,a damage link is insert into the beam end,and its section is somewhat like RBS,its section is reduced a lot,and there is a gap between web and upper and lower flange(this damage link is design for sepecial purpose,to fracture firstly in flange then extend to web); if i want to incorporate Modified IMK or some other suitabale model into my zerolength element,how can i get the parameters like elastic rotational stiffness,My from experimental data(test of monotonic and cyclic test on connection with this damage link.) could i get some recommendation or reference?
thanks a lot:-)
