“…Previous studies have mainly focused on the axial compression behavior of steel stud walls [ [50] , [51] , [52] ] as well as their fire performance [ [53] , [54] , [55] ]. The seismic performance of steel stud walls with various configurations, cover boards, steel stud tube spacings, and openings have been investigated by Restrepo et al [ 56 ], Moghimi et al [ 57 ], Wang et al [ 58 ], Bao et al [ 59 ], Fulop et al [ 60 ], Macillo et al [ 61 ], Fiorino et al [ 62 ], Ye et al [ 63 ] and Wang et al [ 64 ] by series of cyclic tests and the shake table tests conducted by Fiorino et al [ 65 ]. It has been recognized that the cover board makes a considerable contribution to the load bearing capacity and stiffness of the steel stud wall.…”

The mechanical behavior of all-welded beam-column connections of steel frames during progressive collapse was numerically studied using finite element simulations. The validation of the numerical model was based on a previous test model. The analysis results indicated that the stiffness of the all-welded beam-column connection in the elastic-plastic stage was mainly provided by the shear stiffness of the panel zone, and the axial compression on the column had a substantial impact on the capacity and ductility of the all-welded beam-column connection. An improved component-based model of the all-welded beam-column connection was proposed. To verify the accuracy of the proposed model, a beam-column assembly with an all-welded connection was established and the influence of the catenary action, column axial compression, beam-column stiffness ratio, and dynamic performance was parametrically analyzed. The validation results showed that the proposed model was able to simulate the behavior of all-welded beam-column connections at large structural deformation.

“…In recent years, semi-rigid steel frames have been a favorable option used for seismic applications due to their exceptional deformation capability and remarkable energy dissipation ability, while such frames have relatively low lateral stiffness and strength. [1][2][3] The intervention of partitioned infill walls, however, would disturb the expected seismic response of the frames because of the premature failure of the susceptible infill wall. [4][5][6][7] Moreover, severe deformation of the inevitable door openings on the infill wall might aggravate such undesirable effects, given the absence of standardized door opening numbers and locations.…”

Semi‐rigid steel frame stands out due to its remarkable deformation capability under seismic loading, while the introduction of partitioned walls would disturb the expected seismic behavior of the infilled steel frames. Furthermore, the presence of door openings might exacerbate these negative effects. To mitigate the detrimental multiple‐diagonal strut effect of traditional infill walls around the door opening, an innovative low‐damage wall panels system: prefabricated infill wall panels with a door opening and sliding joints are presented for semi‐rigid steel frames. For testifying the effectiveness of the proposed structure, a quasi‐static test was carried out on three half‐scaled steel frames: a bare frame, a frame infilled with conventional wall panels with a door opening, and a frame infilled with the novel wall panel system with a door opening. Experimental results reveal that the developed innovative wall panels with a door opening could avoid unfavorable crack developments and opening deformation around the door area. It is mainly attributed to the releasement of the adverse multiple‐diagonal strut mechanism of traditional wall panels with door openings. Thus, the presented infilled frame showcases seismic performance similar to the bare steel frame, while having a higher energy dissipation capacity. Moreover, the developed analytical prediction method based on the superposition principle could accurately estimate the lateral load‐carrying capacity of the structures. Due to negligible deformation of the both bottom infill wall panel and the door opening, the innovative infill wall only contributes about 10% lateral load‐carrying capability to the infilled frame.
