Seismic design methodology for friction damped braced frames.

This paper is concerned with the design of steel frames using friction damped slotted bolted connections (SBCs) in the diagonal braces. A dynamic model is developed to describe the behaviour of a single degree of freedom (SDOF) steel frame that uses bilinear hysteretic behaviour for the damper. This...
