Seismic Design for Ordinary Concentrically Braced Frames
Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) are a class of structures resisting lateral loads through a vertical concentric truss system, the axes of the members aligning concentrically at the joints. CBFs tend to be efficient in resisting lateral forces because they can provide high strength and stiffness. These characteristics can also result in less favorable seismic responses, such as low drift capacity and higher accelerations. CBFs are common structural steel or composite system in .areas of any seismicity
