Column restraint in post-tensioned self-centering moment frames.

Gaps between beam-to-column interfaces in a post-tensioned (PT) self-centering frame with more than one column are constrained by columns, which causes beam compression force different from the applied PT force. This study proposes an analytical method for evaluating column bending stiffness and bea...
