Abstract : This article focuses on the likelihood of the weak storey behaviour and the weak storey collapse of diagonally concentrically braced frames designed according to Eurocode 8 provisions. The emphasis is primarily put on the nature and development of the weak storey behaviour in order to designate the effects that shall be taken into account in an effective design procedure. In a second stage, the focus is on developing supplementary conditions to Eurocode 8 based on plastic analysis that can enhance the designs by preventing the occurrence of weak storeys. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
