Recently, an embedded connection is adopted to the connection of steel structures. In this study, a new embedded connection technique is suggested. This connection consists as follows; steel square tube is just embedded to steel connector, and filler is filled to clearance between each member. Herein, the cyclic loading test is conducted to clarify the resistant mechanism of this connection in partial frame test specimen. From test results, the resistant mechanism and inelastic behavior of this connection are clarified. And also, by comparison with test results of frame test specimen with conventional joint, it is confirmed that the strength and rigidity on whole frame present almost enough performance.
