| 摘要： | The yielding brace system (YBS) is a seismic-resista nt concentrically braced frame system that provides a fully symmetric hys-teretic response via flexural yielding of cast steel triangular yielding fingers of a specially designed yielding connect〇r. The behavior of the system is first reviewed, and a detailed discussion of the limit states design of a YBS braced frame is presented. Results of two full-scale yielding connector prototype tests, conducted in a braced frame configuration, are then presented. The test specimens were subjected to several quasi-static and dynamic load cycles, up to axial brace deformations of 120 mm (3.8% interstory drift). The proposed design limit states were validated through full-scale testing and the performance of a YBS yielding connector brace assembly in a typical braced frame with a bolted brace-to-gusset connection was demonstrated to be very similar to the performance of YBS yielding connectors tested in a purely axial configuration.
