摘要:
A new type of BRB (buckling-restrained braces) is designed and tested. With both ends strengthened, the braces are made of hot-rolled steel angle core. It has an advantage of simple and effective for manufacturing with low price. Seven specimens were tested, including four BRAB (buckling-restrained angle brace) with two cross section types (quasi-cross and T section) at combination methods (welded or without welding), three BRB made of hot-rolled steel plate for comparison. Cyclically static loading tests were conducted. Seismic behaviors, such as force-deformation hysteresis loops, accumulated plastic deformation, and tangent stiffness and its deterioration, as well as equivalent damping ratio are studied. It is validated that the new BRB using angle core has a reliable performance with high energy dissipation property and can be used to satisfy design requirements for buildings in seismic region.
