Seismic design and shake table tests of a steel post-tensioned self-centering moment frame with a slab accomodating frame expansion.
Post-tensioned (PT) self-centering moment frames were developed as an alternative to welded moment-resisting frames (MRFs). Lateral deformation of a PT frame opens gaps between beams and columns. The use of a composite slab in welded MRFs limits the opening of gaps at the beam-to-column interfaces b...
