This paper present some detailed information about reduced beam section used in moment resisting frame.
Guidelines about the cut, that is to be introduced in the flange of the beam section ,are obtained from FEMA 350.Time
history analysis and dynamic analysis are carried out in this paper. A G+15 storey steel building is modeled using RBS
as a component in one building and regular beam section as a component of the other in STAAD PRO V8i.
Displacement, storey drift , time period and base shear of both the buildings are compared as the result.
