Plastic hinge: Art & Technology

In the structural engineering beam theory, plastic hinge is the deformation of a section of a beam where plastic bending occurs. In earthquake engineering plastic hinge is also a type of energy damping device allowing plastic rotation of an otherwise rigid column connection.
