Effect of panel zone strength ratio on reduced beam section steel moment frame connections

The effect of different panel zone design ratios (Rv/Vpz) on reduced-beam-section connections as part of steel moment resisting frames under cyclic and monotonic loading is investigated. As design specifications suggest an overestimated value for the (Rv/Vpz) ratio in some cases. To achieve this obj...
