Simplified Plastic Hinge Model for Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints with Eccentric Beams

In nonlinear analysis for performance-based design of reinforced concrete moment frames, a plastic hinge spring element is predominantly used in order to simply and accurately describe the inelastic behavior of beam–column joints, including strength degradation. Although current design codes and gui...
