With the comprehensive development of ultra-high voltage (UHV) engineering projects in China, traditional strength of steel can not meet the demands of UHV transmission tower because of the great height, span and load. Therefore, it is necessary to widely use Q460 equal angle steel. The deficiency of studies on related theories and tests leads to the lack of sufficient basis for its use. In this paper, experimental and theoretical researches were carried out on the bearing capacity of compression members of Q460 equal angle steel. Based on the test results, design suggestions and methods were put forward.

The authors present an experimental and analytical study of slotted-in connections for joining walls in the Masonite flexible building (MFB) system. These connections are used for splicing wall elements and for tying down uplifting forces and resisting horizontal shear forces in stabilizing walls. The connection plates are inserted in a perimeter slot in the PlyBoard™ panel (a composite laminated wood panel) and fixed mechanically with screw fasteners. The load-bearing capacity of the slotted-in connection is determined experimentally and derived analytically for different failure modes. The test results show ductile postpeak load-slip characteristics, indicating that a plastic design method can be applied to calculate the horizontal load-bearing capacity of this type of shear walls.

Ratio Of Components

Experiment on bearing capacity of 24 Q460 high strength angle steel for compression members attached by one leg shows: the ultimate bearing capacity of the experiment value are higher than the calculated of the “Design of Latticed Steel Transmission Structures” (ASCE10-1997), on the same section in different slenderness ratio of components, the larger slenderness ratio, the higher the ratio; while on the same slenderness ratio in different sections, the greater width-thickness radio, the greater the ratio. Based on this problem, analyzing the current standard, a set of formulas based on high-strength angle struts connected by single Limb was brought, which can used for the design of the Q460 high-strength angle.

Bolt Diameter

In lattice angle steel transmission tower, as the bolt diameter is small and member connection is relatively thin, lower clamping force is commonly used in bolted joint. It is common in lattice tower during full tower tests, joint slippage occur even under design load. However, traditionally trussed beam hybrid finite element model without explicitly considering slippage effects has been widely used in the analysis of the tower. In this paper, the HD-1 tower was experimentally studied under various static load cases, and several numerical models with including joint eccentricity and slippage are established. After comparing the theoretical analysis results and the experimental results, the following conclusions are presented: joint eccentricity almost has not effects on leg member axial force; Among all the studied load cases, joint slippage effects the leg member force most under torsional condition than the other load conditions; Numerical model with including joint slippage effects yield much better axial force results in leg member compared with experimental test results.

The dissertation taked the ZBS2 straight-line tower in the UHV line project as the object,used the finite element software ANSYS to establish finite element model and did a analysis about its dynamic characteristics. Considering width and thickness of large width angle steel,the section area of large width angle steel is larger than normal angle steel,and the application of large width angle steel can increase bearing capacity of the member.Therefore,this article taked large width angle steel to replace double combined angle steels in the main members of the tower,and calculated the ultimate bearing capacity. Analysis of comparison indicate that the ultimate bearing capacity increases by 13% when large width angle steel is used.Therefore it is feasible and advantageous that large width angle steel uses in the UHV transimission tower,and it provide a reference and basis for future design of the UHV transmission tower with large width angle steel.

Composite Shear

Double steel-concrete composite shear wall is a novel composite structure. Due to its good mechanical properties, it has been considered as a substitute for reinforced concrete walls in nuclear facilities, marine environmental structures, and high-rise buildings. However, the design method of the double-steel concrete composite shear wall is lacking. The purpose of this paper is to propose the bending capacity formula under large and small eccentric loads. By summarizing the test results of 49 steel-concrete composite double shear walls under cyclic loading from different studies, it was found that the bending failure of double-steel-concrete composite shear walls was featured by the concrete crushing at the bottom. A finite element model was established and it could simulate the axial and bending performance of double steel-concrete composite shear walls reasonably well. According to the experimental results and FE analysis, the primary assumptions for calculating the axial and bending bearing capacity of the double steel-concrete composite shear walls were proposed. Based on these assumptions, the bearing capacity formulas were derived according to the equilibrium theory of the cross section. The calculation results obtained by the bearing capacity formulas were in good agreement with the test results.

In view of the problems of large stress and severe bearing heating in double-drum winch at present, this paper adopted a new method to enhance bearing capacity for double-drum winch by adding anti-pressure wheels between two drums. Finite element methods were used to analyze the strength of 4000kN-traction double-drum winches with anti-pressure wheels and without anti-pressure wheels respectively. The results of the analysis revealed that the stress of the cylinder bearing decreased from 264MPa to 167MPa. The new method by adding anti-pressure wheels had remarkably improved the endurance of the bearing. Therefore, the design method can be widely used in large-traction double-drum winch.

The experimental investigation on the effects of granular fill and geogrid reinforced granular fill on the behaviour of the static liquefaction potential of the subsoil is reported in this study. A series of plate load test were carried out with different thickness of the granular fill, number of geogrid layers, and size/dimension of the footing. The test results were presented in terms of bearing capacity and subgrade modulus for the settlement ofδ10,δ15, andδ20. The experimental results revealed that the introduction of granular fill significantly increases the bearing capacity and effectively control the settlement behaviour of the footing. The introduction of geogrid in granular fill enhanced the Percentage of Control in Settlement and Bearing Capacity Ratio by a maximum of 328.54% and 203.41%, respectively. The introduction of geogrid in granular fill interrupts the failure zone of the granular fill and enhances the subgrade modulus of the footing by a maximum of 255.55%; in addition subgrade modulus of the footing was increased with an increase in the number of geogrid layers. Based on the test results it is suggested that the footing with large size has beneficial improvement on the reinforced granular fill.
