Finite element analysis of doubler plate attachment details and load paths in continuity plates for steel moment frames

This thesis presents results of research aimed at developing an improved understanding of the behavior of column panel zones reinforced with doubler plates in seismic resistant steel moment frames. A primary goal of the research was to develop data to support the development of improved design guide...
