Abstract
Buckling restrained bracing systems are effectively being used to reduce seismic response during recent years. But often configurations of these systems are ignored while evaluating their behaviour. Aim of this study is to consider the effect of different bracing configurations on the behaviour of Buckling Restrained Braced Frames(BRBFs). Five-storey three-bay braced frames with three different patterns are modelled using Finite Element Analysis software ANSYS. The main variables of this study are the bracing pattern and location of bracing. The effects of bracing configurations on seismic behaviour of buckling restrained braces are also considered. The best combinations of bracing pattern and location along with specific bay width and storey height in terms of seismic response are suggested finally.
