Book Description
This volume highlights the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of seismic design and performance of steel structures, as presented by leading international researchers and engineers at the 10th International Conference on the Behaviour of Steel Structures in Seismic Areas (STESSA), held in Timisoara, Romania, on 25-27 May 2022. It covers a diverse range of topics such as behaviour of structural members and connections, performance of structural systems, mixed and composite structures, energy dissipation systems, self-centring and low-damage systems, assessment and retrofitting, codes and standards, light-gauge systems. The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
Analytical and Experimental Analyses of Selected 4-bolt Extended Endplate Moment Connections Subjected to a Tensile Load

Book Description
The objective of the present research project was to experimentally and analytically determine the validity of a pure tension design approach to the 4-bolt moment procedure. To achieve this, the effects of end plate thickness and stiffener plates were investigated by testing three connection types and modeling these connections using ANSYS 6.1. Experimental testing included instrumentation of the specimens consisting of strain gages and displacement transducers. A constantly increasing tension force was applied to the specimens using an 860 kip hydraulic cylinder. At 860 kips (which represented a 3.88 increase beyond the design load of 221.41 kips), none of the specimens failed, although large plastic deformations were observed. Clear differences were observed in the elastic/plastic behavior, deformation and stress levels in the three specimen types. It was concluded that the specimen with a 3/4" end plate and welded stiffeners was clearly the stiffest specimen of the three combinations tested. ANSYS 6.1 was used to perform finite element analyses on both the stiffened and unstiffened 3/4" end plate connections. A comparison was made between both 3/4" end plate connections. In general, analytical findings corroborated experimental results and were, on average, within 10% of those found experimentally. The use of stiffeners welded between the end plate and the beam section greatly enhanced the tensile behavior of the connection. In fact, the stiffened end plate connection outperformed the end plate connection with the required thickness.

Investigation of the Failure Mechanism and Moment Capacity Prediction in a Ten Bolt Flush End Plate Moment Connection

Category : Bolts and nuts

Pages : 89
Book Description
Moment end plate connections have found their usage in a number of applications and extensive research has been done on smaller capacity connections of such type. This study seeks to investigate the failure mechanism and the subsequent prediction of the moment capacity of a ten bolt flush end plate connection. The model under study is typical of a flush end plate connection present in an existing steel parking deck. Yield line analysis methods have been employed in analyzing the various failure mechanisms and have been used in developing prediction equations for the design of the end-plate. The modified Kennedy method has also been used in the prediction of the bolt forces for all cases of the analysis with failed bolts. A three dimensional finite element model using ABAQUS Standard has been employed to validate the results from the analytical methods taking into consideration, the interactions between the connection components, boundary conditions and material non-linearities. The moment capacity and the corresponding failure mechanism is predicted under two cases of bolt loss in rows of the connection. Limit state of end plate yielding governs the design for the ten bolt connection and that with one row of bolt failure at the top. Bolt fracture governs the design when there are two rows of failed bolts.

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 689
Book Description
Modern Trends in Research on Steel, Aluminium and Composite Structures includes papers presented at the 14th International Conference on Metal Structures 2021 (ICMS 2021, Poznań, Poland, 16-18 June 2021). The 14th ICMS summarised a few years’ theoretical, numerical and experimental research on steel, aluminium and composite structures, and presented new concepts. This book contains six plenary lectures and all the individual papers presented during the Conference. Seven plenary lectures were presented at the Conference, including "Research developments on glass structures under extreme loads", Parhp3D – The parallel MPI/openMPI implementation of the 3D hp-adaptive FE code", "Design of beam-to-column steel-concrete composite joints: from Eurocodes and beyond", "Stainless steel structures – research, codification and practice", "Testing, modelling and design of bolted joints – effect of size, structural properties, integrity and robustness", "Design of hybrid beam-to-column joints between RHS tubular columns and I-section beams" and "Selected aspects of designing the cold-formed steel structures". The individual contributions delivered by authors covered a wide variety of topics: – Advanced analysis and direct methods of design, – Cold-formed elements and structures, – Composite structures, – Engineering structures, – Joints and connections, – Structural stability and integrity, – Structural steel, metallurgy, durability and behaviour in fire. Modern Trends in Research on Steel, Aluminium and Composite Structures is a useful reference source for academic researchers, graduate students as well as designers and fabricators.
