Behaviour of pultruded beam-to-column joints using steel web cleats [PDF]
Response of pultruded Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) beam-to-column joints with steel bolted web cleats is studied through physical testing. Two joint configurations are considered with either three or two bolts per cleat leg, as per drawings in a ...

Rectangular Gusset Plate Behaviour in Cold-Formed I-Type Steel Connections
Cold-formed structure connections utilizing gusset plates are usually semi-rigid. This paper investigates the behaviours of rectangular gusset plates in cold-formed connections of elements whose columns and beams are made with lipped back-to-back C ...

DEFORMATION INDETERMINACY IN GLOBAL ANALYSIS OF STEEL STRUCTURES WITH SEMI-RIGID JOINTS
This paper shows the procedure for determination of deformation indeterminacy within global analysis of steel constructions with semi-rigid joints, as well as the analysis of deformation indeterminacy within the approximate deformation method.

A review of progressive collapse research and regulations [PDF]
History has demonstrated that buildings designed to conventional design codes can lack the robustness necessary to withstand localised damage, partial or even complete collapse. This variable performance has led governmental organisations to seek ways of

Length spectra and degeneration of flat metrics [PDF]
In this paper we consider flat metrics (semi-translation structures) on surfaces of finite type. There are two main results. The first is a complete description of when a set of simple closed curves is spectrally rigid, that is, when the length vector ...

Standardisation of partial strength connections of extended end-plate connections for trapezoid web profiled steel sections [PDF]
Traditionally, connections are usually classified as pinned or rigid although the actual behaviour is known to fall between these two extreme cases. The use of partial strength or semi-rigid connections has been encouraged by codes and studies on the ...
