Comparative Analysis on Seismic Performance of Steel Frame with Different Forms of Symmetric Enhanced Nodes

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on node test and finite element analysis results of four different structural form enhanced nodes,failure modes,hysteretic behavior,bearing capacity,ductility and energy dissipation capacity of nodes are analyzed comprehensively and comparatively for more in-depth exploration about the seismic performance of symmetric enhanced nodes.The results showed that all the symmetric enhanced nodes have full hysteretic curve and energy dissipation capacity. On the whole,The flange-plate reinforced node exhibit better seismic performance.
