Research Abstract |
An experiment was performed on a subassemblage specimen of an interior column joint with knee brace reinforcement, and the experimental results verified the increase in strength and stiffness of the beam-to-column joint due to the knee brace reinforcement. While knee braces are effective for stiffening and strengthening the overall frameworks, the existing beams or columns are assumed to still plastify during strong earthquakes because of the high strength of the knee braces. A better retrofit is possible if the seismic performance could be upgraded without assuming the yielding of beams or columns. A new type of knee brace member with a built-in comb-shaped damper is proposed and discussed in this study.
