Abstract
A lateral bracing system incudes a frame and a brace assembly. The brace assembly may include at least one diagonal brace affixed to the frame by gusset plates. The diagonal brace may be affixed to the gusset plates at one or both ends by a yield link assembly. The yield link assembly may include various numbers of stacked fuse plates, depending on the required design strength of the lateral bracing system. Each fuse plate may include first and second ends, bolted respectively to the diagonal brace and gusset plate, and a central yield region including one or more mechanical fuses. The mechanical fuses are configured to distribute the inelastic strains throughout the yield region.
