Seismic Performance Analysis of Steel Frame with Wedge Devices Based on the Energy Dissipation

Article Preview

Abstract:

The steel frame with wedge devices is a kind of shock structure based on the node energy consumption. The seismic performances of steel frame with wedge and ordinary steel frame model under low cycle reciprocating load simulation analysis and time history analysis under earthquake loads are analyzed by using finite element software, compared the respective energy dissipation performance and seismic performance, the results show that the wedge spring damping device can effectively control story drifts of structure, reduce the seismic response of structure, and well consume the seismic energy, so the structure of the new column bases with wedge spring devices show better seismic performance.
