Abstract
Recently, there is a growing interest on sustainable connection system that makes it possible to reuse of main structural members by concentrating most of the damage in the frame caused by strong horizontal force, such as earthquake, to damper. In this study proposed a new type of damage-controlled connection system applying these concepts and analysed the major structural performance of the proposed system through the full-scale cyclic loading test and nonlinear finite element analyses. According to the result, it derived the optimal damper/beam strength ratio that minimize the damage of main members and satisfy at least the fully plastic moment of the beam. And it was to verify the possibility of applying as seismic connection details.
