Can anyone provide a source for detailed worked examples of seismic frame design besides the SEAOC Design manual publications? I am specifically interested in eccentric and concentric steel braced frames at the moment and not sure if I am interpreting some of the detail provisions correctly.

I'm assuming you've looked at the examples in the AISC Seismic Design Manual?
Also check out FEMA 451 it goes through some good examples.
