Full-Scale Experiments of Cyclically Loaded Welded Moment Connections with Highly Dissipative Panel Zones and Simplified Weld Details

Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos

This paper presents the experimental results of two welded unreinforced flange-welded web (WUF-W) beam-to-column connections that defy the current design paradigm of prequalified welded connections. The proposed WUF-W connections feature customized beveled ...

Proposed Limits of Stiffener Spacing Requirements for EBF Links Within the Framework of Eurocode 8

Dimitrios Lignos, Nikolaos Skretas

Design specifications for Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) provided by both the current AISC and Eurocode (EC) 8 seismic provisions are primarily based on physical tests conducted in the early 1980s. The tests investigated the behavior of, mostly short, ...

The new Chapter 9 of Eurocode 8 Part 3 for Seismic Assessment of Existing Steel Structures

Dimitrios Lignos

The seismic assessment of existing steel structures necessitates the development of practice- oriented engineering models for use in nonlinear static and dynamic analysis procedures. These models should encompass the full range of the anticipated nonlinear ...

Uniaxial Cyclic and Tensile Tests on Structural Metallic Materials

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Dimitrios Lignos, Selimcan Ozden

Experimental data is imperative to characterize the behavior of materials used in structural analysis models. The aim of this data paper is to establish a database of material-scale uniaxial experiments, primarily conducted at EPFL, to assist with simulati ...

Geometric tolerances of welded connections with inelastic panel zones

Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos, Ce Wen

Prequalified beam-to-column connections in steel moment resisting frames usually concentrate inelastic deformations in the steel beam ends. As such, nonlinear geo-metric instabilities (i.e., local buckling) may occur in these regions at modest lateral drif ...

Full Scale Experiments of a Composite Steel Moment Resisting Frame: Behavioral Insights and Implications on Seismic Design

Dimitrios Lignos, Hammad El Jisr

This paper discusses the cyclic performance of a heavily instrumented 2-bay full-scale composite-steel moment resisting frame (CMRF) sub-system from the onset of structural damage up until incipient collapse. The CMRF featured stiffened end plate bolted co ...

Proposed Stiffener Spacing Requirements for the Seismic Design of Short Links in Eccentrically Braced Steel Frames

Dimitrios Lignos

Links in eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) are designed with transverse web stiffeners to achieve the desired seismic performance targets established in current design standards. Prior studies have suggested that stiffener spacing requirements in the stan ...

The use of ductile steel fuses for the seismic protection of acceleration sensitive non- structural components: Numerical and Experimental verification

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

Recent seismic events have showcased the vulnerability of non-structural components to even low- or moderate-intensity earthquakes that occur far more frequently than design-basis ones. Thus, community-critical buildings, such as hospitals, telecommunicati ...

Experimental Investigation of Instability-Free Welded Moment Connections With Simplified Weld Details

Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos

In capacity designed steel moment resisting frames, inelastic deformations are mostly concentrated in the steel beams and the column fixed ends of the first story. This design concept limits the participation of the column web’s panel zone in the energy di ...

Proposed residual stress model for hot‐rolled wide flange steel cross sections

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos

Residual stresses in hot-rolled wide flange steel cross sections may lead to premature yielding, accelerated corrosion and brittle fracture of steel members. The above phenomena lead to a loss of a steel member's stiffness and resistance under mechanical l ...

Dissipative Embedded Column Bases for Enhanced Seismic Performance of Steel Moment Resisting Frames

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Dimitrios Lignos, Hiroyuki Inamasu

This paper presents an innovative design concept for embedded column base (ECB) connections. The developed ECB connection achieves a non-degrading hysteretic response. In the proposed ECB connections, the dissipative zone is shifted into the embedded porti ...

A Displacement-Based Fiber Element to Simulate Interactive Lateral Torsional and Local Buckling in Steel Members

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Diego Isidoro Heredia Rosa, Dimitrios Lignos

Collapse in steel structures is often controlled by loss of load carrying capacity of steel columns due to interactive buckling, which involves interactions between local and global (i.e., lateral and lateral torsional) buckling. Commonly used concentrated ...
