[ 1 ] - Evaluation of Performance Levels of Zipper-Braced Frames Using Structural Damage Index

The determination of structural and nonstructural damage under earthquake excitations is usually considered as a key factor in performance-based seismic design (PBSD) methods is In this regard, various damage indices have been developed in recent years to quantitatively estimate structural damage. The aim of this study is to develop a simple method to evaluate performance levels of zipper-brace...
