Sentence examples for braced system from inspiring English sources
Results obtained through the seismic analysis reveal that the hybrid braced frame system exhibits a similar energy dissipation capacity to the buckling restrained braced system, while also having excellent re-centering capabilities.
Practically, the partially infilled centre braced system may be a viable solution which may not affect architectural or interior function with moderate strength than that of corner and diagonal bracing partially infilled system for soft storey frames.
Though diagonally braced system shows better results than that of the other two systems, practically, it is difficult to implement as it would hinder the movement of users around the space and thus central bracing system is more effective for soft story frames.
This chapter presents a comparative study of different curved steel I-girder configurations at construction phase namely, bridge with vertical, cross-bracing system only; bridge with vertical bracing system and torsion box; bridge with vertical bracing system and horizontal bracings in outer bays; and bridge with vertical bracing system and horizontal bracings in all bays.
Maheri et al. (2003) first reviewed previous studies on strengthening by steel bracing systems and then investigated three models including a simple frame, a frame strengthened with x-bracing, and a frame strengthened with knee bracing system under lateral load until failure stage.
First, adding off-diagonal steel brace to the first story RC frame, since the x-brace system is used for other stories (composed bracing system by ODBS at first story and x-bracing system for other stories).
The key parameters considered in the chapter include degree of curvature, vertical cross-bracing system, and top horizontal bracing system.
Some modular builders say the cost of a high-rise bracing system would be prohibitive.
The bracing system is helpful to prevent the frame from progressive collapse.
X bracing can provide a stiffer bracing system but reduces the ductility of the ductile frame.
Furthermore, the PBSC bracing system is designed to be fully buckling restrained.
