Evaluating the Effect of Strength and Geometry Parameters of Angle on Behavior of Post-Tensioned Steel Connection with Top and Bottom Angles

Due to the 1994 Northridge earthquake, many of welded steel moment resisting frames (WSMRF) collapsed in the connection area of the beam to a column. The damage in WSMRF, which was contrary to the expectations of the engineers, changed the attitude of the WSMRF. Thus, engineers decided to introduce...

description	Due to the 1994 Northridge earthquake, many of welded steel moment resisting frames (WSMRF) collapsed in the connection area of the beam to a column. The damage in WSMRF, which was contrary to the expectations of the engineers, changed the attitude of the WSMRF. Thus, engineers decided to introduce more ductile and detailed connections. Post-Tensioned Connection (PTC) is one of the new connections proposed by them.
