Effect of low cycle fatigue on steel moment frames with prequalified rigid connections (bolted unstiffened and stiffened extended end-plate moment connections)

The moment beam-to-column connections include those connections that can transfer the moment between the beam and the column. Bolted unstiffened and stiffened extended end-plate moment connections are from this category. This type of connection, which was investigated after severe damage to connecti...
