- This paper addresses a critical issue relating to the safe structural design of earthquake-resisting structures: predicting the lateral deflections of hollow and concrete-filled circular steel tubular braces under cyclic axial loading. This research is important because excessive lateral deflections of these highly ductile members may cause damage to surrounding structural components and very little test data existed for lateral deflections of circular braces prior to these experiments. The results were used to develop predictive expressions for lateral deflections which will improve the safety and performance of braced frames under cyclic loading.
