Overstrength of Displacement-Based Designed Eccentrically Braced Steel Frames

Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) is a performance-based seismic design method that has been proposed and developed over the past two decades for RC frame structures, shear walls and bridges design. The aim of this study is to evaluate overstrength of EBFs with short, intermediate and long lin...
