Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) offer many benefits, but their low ductility limits their use in primary components of moment-resisting frames (MRFs), where beam-end plastic hinging is expected. To overcome this drawback, this study introduced an innovative ductile MRF system composed of pultruded I-shaped FRP beams a...

Moment‐resisting frames (MRFs) are widely recognized in structural engineering for their ability to absorb and dissipate energy, primarily through the formation of plastic hinges at beam ends. This makes them particularly effective in resisting dynamic loads such as seismic activity or strong winds. Integrating Fiber‐R...

Moment‐resisting frames (MRFs) are vital systems for dissipating seismic energy through plastic hinge formation at beam ends. In conventional MRFs, beams must resist both gravity and seismic forces, making repair after earthquakes difficult, particularly in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Repairing RC beams usuall...
