33 Summary (SCBF) Out-of-plane frame deformation appears to have had little to no effect on SCBF frame deformation capacity and strength XBF deformation capacities the same as those achieved in planar tests t at UW with similar il frame 8t elliptical offset method accommodated large inelastic rotations after brace buckling Gusset edge deformation caused by frame action no apparent effect on global performance

34 Summary (BRBF) Out-of-plane frame deformation appears to have had little to no effect on frame deformation capacity and strength Frame action had dominating effect on gusset interface weld demands Considerable damage to frame occurred before and after brace fracture The BRB cores fractured at 3.5 and 4% story drift No instabilities occurred in the BRB prior to fracture Different behavior than BRBF tests at UW and UCB UW, UCB drifts prior to BRB instability ~ 2 to 2.5%
