Performance of the PR connections under combined Axial-tension and moment loading

Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2010
The inherent moment capacity of bolted top-seat angle connections with double web angles (TSDW), categorized as partially restrained (PR) connections according to AISC-LRFD specifications, can be considered in analyses of semi-rigid connections ...

Numerical model for the non-linear dynamic analysis of multi-storey structures with semi-rigid joints with specific reference to the Algerian code [PDF]

, 2019
The current paper aims at investigating the dynamic response of rigid and semi-rigid connections of steel structures built in high seismic areas. A nonlinear dynamic analysis model, which is an extension to the simplified and direct mechanical model used

Analysis of the Mechanical Behavior of Bolted Beam-Column Connections with Different Structural Forms

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019
In order to study the mechanical behavior of bolted beam-column connections, the accuracy and applicability of the finite element model were firstly validated according to the published experiments on end-plate connections using ABAQUS. Then, in order to

Damage avoidance design steel beam-column moment connection using high-force-to-volume dissipators [PDF]

, 1997
Existing welded steel moment frames are designed to tolerate substantial yielding and plastic rotation under earthquake loads. This sacrificial design approach can lead to permanent, and often irreparable damage when interstory drifts exceed 2%.

Behaviour of pultruded beam-to-column joints using steel web cleats [PDF]

, 2013
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 ...
