What is Understanding Intermediate Moment-Resisting Frames about?
1. There are three basic types of lateral load resisting systems that absorb energy from earthquake motion without collapse: moment-resisting frames, shear walls, and braced framing. 2. Moment-resisting frames resist lateral forces through bending and are categorized as special moment-resisting frames (SMRF), intermediate moment-resisting frames (IMRF), or ordinary moment-resisting frames (OMRF) depending on their ability to absorb energy through inelastic deformation. 3. SMRFs can absorb a large amount
