The Seismic Behavior of Steel Structures with Semi-Rigid Diaphragms

This thesis investigates the torsional performance of steel structures with and without rigid diaphragm constraints through numerical simulations and evaluates the appropriateness of relevant design provisions in current seismic design codes. In the first part of the work, six theme structures with...
