ABSTRACT: The behaviour of seismic-resistant buildings relies heavily upon the inclusion of energy dissipat-
ing elements. These are the diagonal braces in concentrically-braced frames, whose performance depends upon
both cross-sectional properties and global slenderness. Rectangular hollow sections are traditionally preferred
in such applications but are prone to high
