Abstract

Building designs that are earthquake-resistant are vital because Indonesia is an earthquake-prone region. The eccentrically braced frame (EBF) is one of the structural systems that may withstand earthquakes. The initial output of this system is intended to be an earthquake fuse. The main beam and EBF with horizontal linkages (EBF-H) are situated together. The main beam will spin vertically during an earthquake, which will have an impact on the building above it. There is a vertical link eccentrically braced frame (EBF-V) to alleviate this problem. EBF V is superior for post-earthquake rehabilitation since it has a separate link from the main beam. EBF-V investigations are relatively uncommon, nevertheless. The structures of EBF-H and EBF-V will be compared in this investigation. The results showed that the structure with EBF-V had better stiffness than EBF-H. EBF-V and EBF-H have almost the same structural weight. © 2025 Institute of Physics Publishing. All rights reserved.
