This paper presents the results of an experimental program investigating the behavior of a steel frame with masonry infill panels subjected to cyclic loadings. Three types of masonry frequently used were tested. Loads were high enough to crack the infill panels without yielding the steel frame. The effects of the infill panels on the stiffness and the energy dissipation of the structure were evaluated. From the experimental results obtained on the three types of masonry, models are proposed to evaluate the behavior of a structure with infill panels. These models could be used in nonlinear dynamic analysis. Key words: masonry infills, masonry, seismic behavior, cyclic loading, modelling, frames.

Lattice light steel frame is a new type of structural system, combining general steel framework which is composed of lattice column and lattice beam with lattice light steel keel of the partitions and floors, the system takes full advantages of both structural systems, with high speed construction, less steel consumption, good earthquake-resistance etc., and possesses good prospects. The paper describes the system construction approach and the characteristics of lattice light steel frame system, and provides a project example of a villa. The design method and calculation model of the project are presented. Calculation results meet the specifications’ requirements, proving the new system can be applied to practical engineering. The paper gives guidance for application and research of this new system.

The seismic behavior factor of moment resisting steel frame-steel plate shear wall under two different horizontal loading patterns was investigated according to the maximum inter-story drift ratio reaching 1/50. It could be achieved with the same calculated standard as the foreign codes and the determined behavior factor was compared with foreign research results. The method using the software SAP2000 to calculate seismic behavior factor according to the maximum inter-story drift ratio reaching 1/50 was presented and the specific example was used to elaborate the operating process. The seismic behavior factor R, the overstrength factor RΩ and the ductility reduction factor Rμ of 10-storey 3-span steel frame-steel plate shear wall under the inverted triangle load are respectively 6.07, 2.96 and 2.05. while they are respectively 7.2, 3.37 and 2.13 under the uniform load. Finally, it can be concluded that the economic and reasonable design goals are achieved for this structure.

This paper presents a suitable solution of studying on the performance of energy consumption of BRB. The hysteretic curve of BRB is got with finite element software, and is lead into steel frame by virtual hinge. The results show that the BRB has more advantages in reducing the structural displacement and protecting the safety of the main structure compared with the general braces.
