Analysis of Steel Braced Frame Structure Response Encountered Higher Seismic Intensity

Abstract:

Structure may encounter higher seismic fortification intensity than adopted. So how the structure reacts in that case becomes a concerned problem for civil engineers. In order to solve the problem, the response of a steel braced frame structure is analyzed in this paper when facing higher seismic fortification intensity. The result shows that the lateral sway between layers, the vertex displacement, the bending and shear strength of the frame beams and the stability of the components are still meet the design requirements, and steel frame structure has good seismic performance.
