The paper deals with the effect of non-uniform temperature over the cross-section in the steel frame structure under fire loading. The unequal temperature distribution causes additional bending moments in statically indeterminate structures. Numerical results of thermal and structural analysis from the commercial computer software ANSYS are compared with the experimental measurements on the steel frame exposed to high temperature.

According to the superposition principle of building structure, the lateral deformation mode of pre-stressed mega bracing-steel frame structure was analyzed, then the relation between the structural maximum inter-story drift and cross section area of cable was further established. Based on the area of cable derived by the design target value of inter-story drift, the qualitative estimation theory on cross section area of the cable is finally determined.

Abstract Structures exposed to fire loading, where supports prevent thermal expansions, must be calculated according to the basic principles of mechanics while respecting the effect of rising temperature on the structure and its effect on the value of variable material properties at the time of fire. The paper analyzed and compared results of the experiment aimed to verify the behavior of statically indeterminate steel frame exposed to high temperature and numerical modelling using finite element method in the ANSYS software.

Most steel beam-column connections actually show semi-rigid deformation behavior that can contribute substantially to overall displacements of the structure and to the distribution of member forces. Steel frame structure with semi-rigid connections are becoming more and more popular due to their many advantages such as the better satisfaction with the flexible architectural design, low inclusive cost and environmental protect as well. So it is very necessary that studying the behavior of those steel frame under cyclic reversal loading. On the basics of connections experiments the experiment research on the lateral resistance system of steel frame structure has been completed. Two one-second scale, one-bay, two-story steel frames with semi-rigid connections under cyclic reversal loading. The seismic behavior of the steel frames with semi-rigid connections, including the failure pattern, occurrence order of plastic hinge, hysteretic property and energy dissipation, etc, was investigated in this paper. Some conclusions were obtained that by employing top-mounted and two web angles connections, the higher distortion occurred in the frames, and the internal force distributing of beams and columns was changed, and the ductility and the absorbs seismic energy capability of steel frames can be improved effectively.

Purpose Progressive collapse because of high temperatures arising from an explosion, vehicle impact or fire is an important issue for structural failure in high-rise buildings. Design/methodology/approach The present study, using ABAQUS software for the analysis, investigated the progressive collapse of a two-dimensional, three-bay, four-storey steel frame structure from high-temperature stresses. Findings After structure reaches the temperature results like displacement, stress axial load and shear force are discussed. Research limitations/implications Different temperatures were applied to the columns at different heights of a structure framed with various materials. Progressive collapse load combinations were also applied as per general service administration guidelines. Originality/value This study covered both steady-state and transient-state conditions of a multistorey-frame building subjected to a rise in temperature in the corner columns and intermediate columns. The columns in the framed structure were subjected to high temperatures at different heights, and the resulting displacements, stresses and axial loads were obtained, analysed and discussed.
