Two types of specimen were tested: one is an X-shaped frame whose panel is subjected to shear, and the other is a 3-point bending specimen whose panel is free from shear. In result, the joint strength and stiffness are well predicted by the previously proposed formulae irrespective of the existence of shear in the panel, and the panel strength and stiffness are also well predicted by the well known formulae given for diaphragm connections. This suggests that the interaction between panel and joint of the non-diaphragm connection can be ignored in structural design.en10.3130/aijs.81.1575info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBeam-to-column connectionCHSJointNon-diaphragmPanelStrength and stiffnessDiaphragmsJoints (structural components)StiffnessStructural design3-point bending specimensBeam connectionsBeam-to-column connectionsBuckling restrained bracesCyclic loading testNon diaphragmsPanelStrength and stiffnessCyclic loadsCyclic loading tests of sub-standard RC frames retrofitted with buckling restrained braces and elastic steel framesArticle81727157515842-s2.0-84989851757Q1
