Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure include a seismic bracing yield fuse for seismically bracing nonstructural equipment from a structural member of a building. The seismic bracing yield fuse includes a fuse member configured to undergo ductile yielding in a length dimension upon application of a tensile or compressive force along the length dimension of the fuse member. The fuse member includes two ends and a central bar positioned between the two ends. The central bar includes a neck down portion including a substantially constant cross section.
