Polster	Preliminary Testing of a Novel Precast Concrete Buckling-Restrained Brace	2023		.txt	text/plain	146	4	27	The thesis explains the experimental testing set-up, describes the casting process of the test specimens, explains the instrumentation and data acquisition system, presents the results from the tests, and draws conclusions and recommendations for future experimental research on precast concrete BRB components as well as precast concrete braced frame structures. While BRB frames are commonly used for primary lateral-load resistance in steel building construction with great success, they are currently not permitted for precast concrete structures due to extremely limited research.	cache/k930bv76t37.txt	txt/k930bv76t37.txt
