Multistage Friction Connections
Chanchi Golondrino, Jose Christian; MacRae, Gregory; Coral Potosi, Hugo Anderson (2023-04-19)Multistage friction connections (MFCs) are bolted connections for dissipating seismic energy while reducing peak displacements and encouraging recentring. MFCs comprise two symmetric friction connections co-linearly ... -
Towards a better understanding of the development of the strength in Asymmetrical Friction Connections (AFCs)
Chanchi Golondrino, Jose Christian; MacRae, Gregory Anthony; Chase, James Geoffrey; Rodgers, Geoffrey; Clifton, G. Charles (2020-04-22)In the current design practice, the strength of Asymmetric Friction Connections (AFCs) is calculated considering the friction force developed at both sliding interfaces using the bolt tension reduced by the moment – shear ...
