To evaluate the static and seismic behaviour of glulam beam-to-column connections with screwed-in threaded rods, nine specimens grouped in three were tested under both monotonic and reversed cyclic loads. The failure modes, moment resistance, initial rotation stiffness, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity of the developed connections were investigated. The results indicated that the developed beam-to-column connections showed superior structural performance. Furthermore, with the introduction of a steel bracket, the hybrid screwed-in threaded rod connection features larger stiffness, higher load-carrying capacity, remarkable ductility, and better energy dissipation capacity. The main failure modes included the yielding of steel brackets, as well as the yielding or rupture of the threaded rods, which indicated a ductile behaviour. The connection specimens with steel columns showed larger stiffness than those with glulam columns, which is reasonable for the bigger compressive deformation of glulam columns.

This study is devoted to experimentally investigate the seismic behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) wide beam–column joints equipped with a steel jacketing seismic strengthening solution. To this end, three identical full-scale specimens have been tested under cyclic loading, one in the as-built condition and two after the application of the strengthening solutions. Details of selected solutions are described in the paper along with the experimental results which confirm how the application of simple and feasible steel interventions can effectively improve the seismic capacity of wide beam–column connections in RC frames, especially in terms of lateral load carrying capacity and energy dissipation.

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.

Seismic Behaviors

The steel plate shear walls (SPSW) are currently being considered as a lateral load resisting system. A numerical method was proposed to have a comprehensive comparison of seismic behaviors of the plane wall (PW) and stiffened plane wall (SPW) with different stiffener characteristics, having the same weight, by using finite element modeling (FEM). The model was validated by using previously published experimental works. The material and geometric nonlinearity were taken into consideration. In this paper, the effect of using stiffeners with different cross-section shapes and directions will be studied, and key issues, such as load-carrying capacity, stiffness, and energy dissipation capacity, were discussed in depth. It was found that the proposed SPW with horizontal L, T, and U stiffeners could effectively improve load-carrying capacity by about 4, 20, and 23%, respectively. Diagonally and horizontally, SPWs with U stiffeners have higher energy-dissipation capacity than PW by about 57, 50%, respectively. This method provides a combination of high-performance stiffeners form and material for improving the seismic behavior of SPW.

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%.

Four steel beam-column connections were tested under cyclic loads to investigate effects of the concrete cover and the cast-in-situ slabs on the failure modes, stiffness, load-carrying capacity, ductility and energy-dissipation capacity. The test results show that the stiffness and bending strength of the non-rigid steel connections are significantly increased due to the presence of concrete cover and the cast-in-situ slabs can further enhance the connections. Moreover, the connection with slab is prone to debonding failure along beam-slab interface resulting in a remarkable decrease of the stiffness and strength. Practical methods are also presented for analyzing and assessing the steel frames with non-rigid connections considering effects of concrete cover.

The majority of existing ancient timber structures have different degrees of damage. The looseness of mortise-tenon joints is a kind of typical damage type. In order to study the influence of looseness on the seismic performance of mortise-tenon joints, six through-tenon joints and six dovetail-tenon joints with scale 1:3.2 were fabricated according to the requirements of the engineering fabrication method of Chinese Qing Dynasty. Each type of joints consisted of one intact joint and five artificial loose joints, and the artificial defect was made to simulate looseness by cutting the tenon sectional dimension. Based on experiments of two types of joints under low-cyclic reversed loading, the seismic behaviors of joints such as failure modes, hysteretic loops and skeleton curves, strength and stiffness degradation, and energy dissipation capacity were studied. Moreover, the comparative analyses of seismic performance between two types of joints were carried out. The variation tendency of seismic behaviors of two types of joints has similarities, and there are some differences due to their different structural styles. The results indicate that squeeze deformation between tenon and mortise of two types of joints occurred. The shape of hysteretic loops of two types of joints is reverse-Z-shape, and the pinching effect of hysteretic loops becomes more obvious with the increase in looseness, among which of through-tenon joints is more obvious than that of dovetail-tenon joints. The carrying capacity, stiffness, and energy dissipation capacity of loose joints are significantly lower than that of the intact one, and the energy dissipation capacity of dovetail-tenon joints is better than that of through-tenon joints. The rotation angles of two types of joints can reach 0.12 rad, and the loose joints still have great deformation capacity.

Effective Use

In order to make an effective use of the recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), a total of six steel tube RAC columns and six basalt fiber (BF) reinforced RAC columns, including six columns that were externally strengthened with aramid fiber reinforced polymer (AFRP) sheets, were fabricated and tested. This were to provide a strengthening solution to upgrade the load carrying capacity, ductility and rigidity of the RAC filled steel tube columns. Besides, the recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement ratios for production of RAC was analyzed. The results show that the load carrying capacity and ultimate displacements of the RAC filled ST columns could be improved greatly by adding of basalt fiber, especially for the specimens with 50% and 100% RCA replacement ratio. The similar result was also found for the specimens strengthened with AFRP reinforcement, along with the stiffness of the columns were enhanced obviously. Moreover, the highest improving on the load carrying capacity, stiffness and ultimate displacement was found in the specimens both reinforced by adding of BF and strengthening of AFRP. However, the failure modes of the specimens with BF reinforced RAC gave a higher deformability than the one with AFRP strengthening arrangement.
