Abstract
A method for seismic retrofit of beam-column joints, designed without seismic considerations and reinforced by plain bars, is examined. The method, already applied to connections reinforced by deformed bars, has been modified for joints with plain bars. Retrofit of these relatively old connections needs special attention due to the weak steel–concrete bond, let alone the lack of seismic consideration in design. In this method, steel angles are...
