Nonlinear Static Response of Low-Moderate Ductile Chevron Concentrically Braced Frames Designed According to Eurocode 8

Steel frames equipped with chevron bracing (Λ-CBF) are usually less ductile than other steel systems. Therefore, in many cases, it can be convenient to design Λ-CBF to exploit their stiffness and resistance to enforce a pseudo-elastic seismic response of the building in low to moderate seismic zones...
