The steel-plate-masonry composite structure is an innovative type of structural scheme popular in masonry structures with load-bearing walls removed for a large space. A total of 4 column specimens under static loading were tested to mainly study the failure modes, load-carrying capacity, and strain distribution in the critical cross-section. Results show that the composite columns started an initial failure from local buckling of the steel plate located between binding bolts; the main factors influencing load-carrying capacity included thickness of the steel plate, type of injected material, and initial column eccentricity; the working performance of the composite column with epoxy adhesive was better than that with cement grout; and re-distribution of compressive stress existed in the steel plates of the column. Also, the ratio of service load-carrying capacity to ultimate capacity of the steel-plate-masonry composite column is about 70%.

The concept of prestressing steel structures has only recently been widely considered, despite a long and successful history of prestressing concrete members. Several analytical studies of prestressed steel plate girder were reported in the literature, but much of that work was not studied with reference to different parameters like tendon profile, eccentricity, partial span to full span ratio, prestressing force, load carrying capacity etc. associated with prestressing. This paper examines analytically a comparative study of various tendon configurations and prestressing parameters on over all analysis and design of prestressed steel plate girder. The output from the computer Program for analysis and design of steel plate girder prestressed with different tendon configurations are compared among each other. As a Case-study, a prototype model of Prestressed Steel Testing Frame with straight tendon has been designed, constructed and tested in the laboratory for its safe load carrying capacity and maximum deflection.

Degradation of tensile properties resulting from geometrical discontinuities due to localized pitting is usually evaluated in terms of the reduced section thickness associated with pit geometry which lowers the load carrying capacity of the structure. However, the effects of finer parameters associated with pit distributions such as pit area percent (PAP) are not usually taken into account. In this research, the effects of spacing, depth and PAP on tensile properties of a structural steel are investigated. Simulated pit distributions were produced on the gage sections of flat tensile specimens using mechanical drilling. It is found that final elongation is more adversely affected than tensile strength with increasing PAP, pith depth and pith spacing. However, the reduction in final elongation tends to be largely recovered at higher PAP values due to increasing uniformity of strain distribution. It is noted that increasing pit spacing at a constant PAP leads to greater reductions in tensile properties, especially at higher pit depths, due to the increased stress concentration and strain localization. It is further clarifies that the introduction of first few pits and their growth to larger depths could be very detrimental to the mechanical properties of structural alloys.

Pillar jib cranes are often mounted to existing floors with the use of an intermediate anchorage steel plate instead of using independent foundations. The process of designing such an intermediate plate for a pillar jib crane and a destruction pattern for plates of insufficient thickness are presented in this article. The required steps of the designing process are introduced and also the required level of detail for the numerical analysis. The aim of this paper is to provide a secure and safe approach to the design of such intermediate anchorage plates.

RC shear wall with STRC (steel tube-reinforced concrete) columns and embedded steel plate has been proposed and used in the project of an International Conference Center. In order to ascertain the seismic performance of this kind of composite shear walls with different openings in the practical engineering, four 1/7 scale specimens with shear span ration 2.0 were tested under low-frequency cyclic loading. The load-carrying capacity, ductility, stiffness and its attenuation, hysteretic property, energy dissipation capacity and failure mode of the specimens were analyzed. The effect of the embedded steel plate and the concealed steel trusses on the seismic performance of the walls was studied. The results show that the ductility and load-carrying capacity of RC shear wall are improved greatly by setting the embedded steel plate or concealed steel trusses in the wall; The embedded steel plate and the concrete work very well through the stud connectors welded on the steel plate and the tie bars inserted in the walls; The STRC columns have the advantage of higher load-carrying capacity, not easy to crack and better ductility; The new composite shear wall has good seismic performance and important practical value. It is suitable for large and complex application of high-rise buildings in the seismic regions.

The dowel-type connection is widely applied in timber and bamboo structures. It is ambiguous regarding the calculation method of engineered bamboo connections completely referred to the timber design codes. The steel-to-laminated bamboo dowel connections with slotted-in steel plate tests were conducted to investigate the mechanical performance under tension based on the ASTM-D5652-15. The effects of the thickness, dowel diameter, and end distance on the yield load, ultimate load, initial stiffness, and ductility of the connections were studied. The difference in the yield load for different end distance is negligible. With the same thickness of the connections, the lower the thickness to dowel diameter, the larger the load-carrying capacity. The three typical yield modes and corresponding load-displacement curves of the connections are observed. By considering the rigid-plastic model, the theoretical equation for the connections is proposed and proven to fit well with the experimental results. It presents a better prediction for the load-carrying capacity of steel-to-laminated bamboo dowel connections with slotted-in steel plate.

Based on the experiment of a one-third scale, single-span, two-storey semi-rigid composite steel frame model with cross-stiffened steel plate shear wall under lateral cyclic loadings, the interactive effect between the joint stiffness and the cross-stiffened steel plate shear wall, the failure mode and energy dissipation mechanism of the structure system were analyzed, some important parameters were obtained in regard to load-carrying capacity, ductility, stiffness and energy dissipation capacity. The results showed that the specimen exhibited excellent ductility, energy dissipation capacity and great safety margin; the stiffness degradation of the joints was not serious, the requirement of ductility was lowered by setting up infill panels, the cooperative work between the frame and the steel plate shear wall was well; stiffeners improved the force condition of steel panels, increased the stiffness and load-carrying capacity of panels, lightened the pinch of hysteretic loops and reduced the noise and tremor of panels. The failure mode of the structure induced by buckling of stiffeners, local buckling and interactive buckling of infill panels,plastic hinges were formed at the bottom of column and semi-rigid connection, the in-plane deformation of specimen was bending failure. The research provides a basis for engineering application and theoretical analysis of the structural system.

Abstract Currently, the steel plate shear wall (SPSW) is commonly used in high-rise steel buildings as a lateral load resisting system. The SPSW consists of the boundary frame and infill plate. The objectives of this work are to study the effect of same weight different infill plate types, the effect of boundary frame characteristics, and the effect of infill plate weld separation on the seismic behavior of the SPSWs. A numerical method was proposed to have a comprehensive comparison of seismic behaviors of different types of SPSWs, having the same weight. The model was validated by using previously published numerical and experimental works. The study covers unstiffened (USPSW), stiffened (SSPSW), and corrugated steel plate shear wall (CSPSW). Similarly, the effect of boundary frame stiffness and welding separation characteristics between the plate and boundary frame will be studied, and key issues, such as load-carrying capacity, stiffness, and energy-dissipation capacity were discussed deeply. It was found that the SSPSW has better seismic behavior than USPSW and CSPSW. SSPSW has a higher load-carrying capacity than USPSW, and CSPSW by about 14, 24%, respectively. USPSW is more sensitive to the stiffness of the boundary frame than CSPSW. The plate welding separation has a greater impact on the initial stiffness than load-carrying capacity. When plate-column welding separation occurs, the initial stiffness, and the energy dissipation capacity reduces by about 21%, and 14%. Whereas, when the plate-beam separation occurs, the initial stiffness and energy dissipation capacity reduce by about 36%, and 20.5%.
