Abstract

Application of vertical stabilisation systems composed of frames with infilled panel has been increasingly adopted in nowadays buildings, primarily due to high resistance as well as their favourable behaviour when exposed to significant seismic activity. This paper has covered systems consisting of composite panels placed within the steel or composite member frames. These systems are listed in leading world norms, but the given guidelines are, due to insufficient research, very scarce and leave the designer with a number of opened questions. Aside these guidelines, this paper provides their additional clarification, and indicates the field’s current state of the art which would be used to set the course of further research.
