Dear yanad,

The Building Modeller of SeismoStruct provides the capability to automatically model steel braces of different configurations. Also in the Materials module there is a model specific for the modeling of steel in BRBs.

Finally, if you carry out a search in this forum with the 'Buckling Restrained Brace' term, you will find a number of posts.
