Abstract
The Steel Slit Panel Frame (SSPF) has promise as a lateral force resisting system, exhibiting good energy dissipation and ductile behavior. Further benefits include ease of fabrication and erection and use of Steel Slit Panels (SSPs) as replaceable fuse elements. However, issues of residual drift and cumulative story stiffness reduction should be addressed further before the SSPF can be implemented in practice. Cumulative story stiffness reduction in the SSPF is the result of SSP-frame interaction. Preliminary design guidelines are refined through a parametric study of various SSPF configurations. Residual drift may hamper installation of new SSPs after a seismic event. However, preliminary analysis results suggest that some simple detailing could be used to accommodate residual drift. SSPF residual drift and possible replaceable fuse strategies are investigated.
