Steel frames retain residual deformation after a huge earthquake, their continued use is impractical. This paper aims to decrease residual deformation by use of connections incorporating a wedge device. A loading test on a specimen with a beam joint connected by conventional bolts and using such a device shows that its restoring force characteristics are of the linear-from-origin type. Seismic response analyses of steel frames with such wedge device connections lead to the following conclusions: they show no residual deformation; and story deformation angles, story shear forces, story
