    SCBF bracings gravity loads AISC-341-10

    Good Day to everyone! I'm new on this forum. I'm a structural engineer from Poland and I use AISC-341-10 to design a structure for high seismic region. Due to the reason of huge seismic base shear force I need to design my structure as a Special Concentrically Braced (SCBF). AISC 341-10...

    SCBF bracings

    Thank's Toby43 for your advice. Of course I will check the NEHRP provisions. If I good understand the braces will work elastic until the plastic hinge occur. Braces are loaded gravity and lateral (there is no possible to divide those loads in real structure), that is a question from which type...
