Zusammenfassung:•Prediction models of Cμ and Cr were developed for the RSMRF.•A peak and residual displacement-based design method was developed for retrofitting SMRFs.•The designed RSMRFs can achieve the desired peak and residual inter-story drift responses.•The designed RSMRFs have no repair requirements for after MCE excitations. Conventional steel moment-resisting frames (SMRFs) absorb seismic energy through steel yielding behavior, leading to significant residual displacement. Although steel yielding behavior can ensure the seismic safety of SMRFs under strong earthquakes, excessive residual displacement may lead to post-earthquake demolition decisions, causing a large amount of economic loss. This paper aims to develop a peak and residual displacement-based design (PRDBD) method for controlling the peak and residual inter-story drift responses of SMRFs by installing self-centering braces. The peak and residual displacements are both set as the design targets in the proposed PRDBD method. To this end, the machine learning prediction models of inelastic and residual displacement ratios were first developed based on the median responses of single-degree-of-freedom systems under earthquakes. The detailed design steps of the proposed PRDBD method were subsequently introduced. The three- and nine-story demonstration buildings were retrofitted by using the PRDBD method with two different design targets. Static and dynamic analyses were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed PRDBD method. The static analysis results indicated that the self-centering braces could efficiently enhance the SMRF’s stiffness and strength. The retrofitted SMRFs showed no strength deterioration, whereas the original SMRFs showed obvious strength deterioration at the roof drifts of 3.2% and 2.5% in the three- and nine-story buildings, respectively. The dynamic analysis results confirm that the self-centering braces can efficiently reduce the peak and residual inter-story drift responses of the existing SMRFs and the retrofitted SMRFs can achieve the peak and residual inter-story performance objectives under the considered seismic intensity. Moreover, the retrofitted SMRFs can be fully recoverable after maximum considered earthquakes by controlling the maximum residual inter-story drift lower than 0.2%.
