摘要：	In the present paper, the coupled behavior of structural systems obtained by connecting a moment resisting frame structure with a vertical elastic truss, known in the literature as strongback, which acts as a mast by imposing to the structure a given lateral deformed shape, is investigated. The rigid behavior of the strongback, which has to be designed to remain in the elastic field under strong seismic ground motion, linearizes the lateral displacement profile of the adjacent frame through an exchange of mutual horizontal actions. The presence of the strongback should thus help in limiting undesired effects, such as soft-story and weak-story mechanisms. For the proper design of both the truss system forming the strongback and the frame members, the preliminary evaluation of the actions exchanged between the systems is of fundamental importance. The aim of the work is to develop analytical formulas for estimating mutual actions and internal actions in the frame members for the limiting cases of shear-type frames and pendulum-type frames. Finally, some numerical simulations of frame systems with strongback systems as subjected to earthquake ground motions are developed, including the cases of frames with flexible beams. It is found that the amplitudes and distributions of both mutual actions and internal actions in the frame are significantly affected by the beamto- column stiffness ratio. In the case of relatively stiff beams, the mutual actions tend to reduce the shear and bending moment at the lower stories, which are rather uniformly redistributed along the height. On the contrary, in the case of relatively flexible beams, large mutual actions and internal actions (shear and bending moments) are concentrated at the lower stories, with the upper stories remaining practically unloaded.
