The main aim of the current paper is to investigate the cyclic behavior of bracing type pure aluminum shear panels (BTPASPs) obtained through a heat treatment of the base material and stiffened by means of welded ribs. The use of the heat-treated aluminum alloy AW1050 A H24 allows to achieve a good hysteretic behavior, while the choice of equipping the plates with ribs is due to the will of shifting buckling phenomena to the plastic field. In order to examine the performances of such a device, experimental tests on two diagonally loaded bracing type pure aluminum shear panels are presented

Abstract
The main aim of the current paper is to investigate the cyclic behavior of bracing type pure aluminum shear panels (BTPASPs) obtained through a heat treatment of the base material and stiffened by means of welded ribs. The use of the heat-treated aluminum alloy AW1050 A H24 allows to achieve a good hysteretic behavior, while the choice of equipping the plates with ribs is due to the will of shifting buckling phenomena to the plastic field. In order to examine the performances of such a device, experimental tests on two diagonally loaded bracing type pure aluminum shear panels are presentedFile in questo prodotto:
