9.3. MOMENT RESISTING STEEL FRAMES WITH HIGH DUCTILITY LEVEL

Steel frames with highly ductile members that transfer loads and moments are expected to provide significant inelastic deformation capacity through flexural yielding of the beams and limited amount of non-linear deformation of column panel zones under the earthquake actions. Rules for the dimensioning of the steel frames with highly ductile members are given below:
