Effects of detailing on panel zone seismic behaviour in special moment resisting frames with unequal beam depths
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Special moment resisting frames (SMRF) are commonly used as lateral-load resisting systems in seismic design. The results of recent studies have shown that the seismic performance of such frames can be improved by paying particular attention to the detailing of their panel zones (PZ) and beams. Panel zones with unequal beam depths appear to be a special case of connection detailing, which has not received sufficient attention so far and could lead to complications in everyday engineering practice. Some full-scale experiments of connections with unequal beam depths were performed, using different continuity plate arrangements (inclined and straight plates), and different corner clip lengths. A companion analytical study was also conducted, for which results have shown that the correct selection of inclined or straight continuity plates, with special detailing of the PZ, could keep the behaviour of the latter within safe margins. Such considerations could prevent the occurrence of failure in the PZ, and significantly improve the seismic resistance of SMRF with unequal beam depths.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
