Abstract
In this study, the behavior of nine steel frames having various infill properties under
reversed-cycling loading were investigated experimentally. The steel frame systems consist of a
single story with span/height ratios of 1, ½ and 2. The selected infill properties are no infill, brick-
wall infill and brick-wall + plaster infill. The reversed-cycling loading was applied to test the
specimens laterally to simulate the seismic load. Then, the displacements occurring at the
specimens were measured. Strength envelopes, rigidity decreases and energy dissipation properties
of the infilled frames were determined and the results obtained are compared.
