Conditions for Strong-Column and Weak-Beam (SC/WB)

For the highly ductile steel frames or reinforced concrete structural system systems with shearwalls and steel frames, the beam-column connections must provide the condition of the Strong-Column and Weak-Beam (SC/WB) approach, depending on the earthquake direction. In beam-to-column connections, the following relationship must be fulfilled:

Where ΣM*pc is the sum of the nominal flexural strength of the columns above and below the joint to the beam centerline with a reduction for the axial force in the column. The , the determination of ΣM*pc* from the Eq (E3-2) is permitted. When the centerlines of beams in opposite direction directions in the same joint do not coincide, the mid-line between centerlines should be used. For the ΣM*pb*, the sum of the expected flexural strengths of the beams at the plastic hinge locations to the column centerline. The determination of ΣMpb* from the Eq (E3-3) is permitted.

The required axial strength is Prc = Puc (LRFD) or Prc = Pac (ASD), as applicable.

In the calculation of calculating column flexural strength capacities, the required compressive force Pac (ASD) or Puc (LRFD) are obtained from the load combinations, which makes these bending moment capacities the lowest in accordance with the direction of the earthquake.
