Moment Resistant Connections of Steel Frames in Seismic Areas - Design and Reliability (Paperback)

An unexpected brittle failure of connections and of members
occurred during the last earthquakes of Northridge and Kobe. For
this reason a heightened awareness developed in the international
scientific community, particularly in the earthquake prone
countries of the Mediterranean and Eastern Europe, of the urgent
need to investigate this topic. The contents of this volume result
from a European project dealing with the 'Reliability of moment
resistant connections of steel frames in seismic areas' (RECOS),
developed between 1997 and 1999 within the INCO-Copernicus joint
research projects of the 4th Framework Program. The 30 month
project focused on five key areas: *Analysis and syntheses of
research results, including code provisos, in relation with the
evidence of the Northridge and Kobe earthquakes; *Identification
and evaluation through experimental means of the structural
performance of beam-to-column connections under cyclic loading;
*Setting up of sophisticated models for interpreting the connection
response; *Numerical study on the connection influence on the
seismic response of steel buildings; *Assessment of new criteria
for selecting the behaviour factor for different structural schemes
and definition of the corresponding range of validity in relation
of the connection typologies.
