Subassemblage with semi-rigid joint

Computers & Structures, 1995
The finite element technique is employed to analyse and perform a parametric study on cold-formed thin-walled column subassemblage with a semi-rigid joint. Besides large displacement, the analysis also considers the area of contact between the fastener, connector and the member in the vicinity of the joint. Results obtained from a series of preliminary

Semi-rigid joints of timber structures

Pollack Periodica, 2010
Traditional timber joints behavior remains badly known. Recent studies have shown that some kind of carpentry joints can be considered as semi-rigid connections. Their rigidity (bending stiffness) in general sense plays an important role in computation of the global deformations and force distribution of timber roofing frames.

Finite Element Modelling of Semi-Rigid Composite Joints

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2000
Abstract Semi-rigid joints in steel and composite construction are, at present, a frequently discussed topic. In framed structures, joints are located at points of intersection between beams and columns. In the semi-rigid joint concept, the actual stiffness and resistance of joints are considered thereby influencing the overall performance of the ...

Tubular Steel Truss Design Using Semi-Rigid Joints

Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (2014), 2014
Despite the fact that semi-rigid nature of steel structures joints is well-known for several decades the truss design is constantly being carried out with ideally hinged joints in the finite element models. In some recent studies the stiffness of welded tubular truss joints have been defined as well as the member buckling lengths in the trusses.

Advanced Method for Semi-Rigid Joints Design

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015
In this paper was presented analysis of the background and was found the most appropriate ways to consider joints stiffness. The design process algorithm is proposed in order to take into account nonlinear stiffness characteristic, complex of economic, ecologic and safety factors for the different joint types.

Analysis of frames with semi-rigid joints

Computers & Structures, 1994
Summary: We present a method to determine the load capacity as well as end member forces and deformations of frames with partial rigid joint connections by using the direct stiffness method. The connections are modeled as rotational springs, attached at the ends of framed members.
