c are <strong>the</strong> bending moments <strong>and</strong> shear forces acting in <strong>the</strong><br />

beams at <strong>the</strong> two sides <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> frame system. RV <strong>and</strong> RH are <strong>the</strong> vertical <strong>and</strong><br />

horizontal reaction forces at <strong>the</strong> column base.<br />

The angle ϕDEV represents <strong>the</strong> slope <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> vertical pendulum during <strong>the</strong> test,<br />

increasing with <strong>the</strong> horizontal displacement. Assuming <strong>the</strong> hypo<strong>the</strong>sis <strong>of</strong> small<br />

angles we can state that:<br />

where ∆UDT.beam is <strong>the</strong> specimen displacement given by <strong>the</strong> digital transducer<br />

applied at <strong>the</strong> lateral concrete beam face.
