About this listen

A two-level design approach using elastic analysis for service loads and plastic analysis for ultimate strength, explaining connection behavior through moment-rotation curves, and offering simplified equations for design. It includes specific design procedures and examples for both braced and unbraced frames, with sections dedicated to determining ultimate strength, checking lateral drift, and detailing connections like seat angles and reinforcement. The text emphasizes the advantages of using PR-CCs to economize beam sizes and enhance structural efficiency, while also noting limitations concerning seismic risk and building height.
