Abstract
In this article, a steel moment connection of beam to the column called a slotted web and bolt flange plate moment connection is introduced and the seismic performance of the connection is assessed by modeling the finite element. The connection consists of two slots in the beam web and bolted plates to the beam flange at the area of connection of the beam to the column to create a plastic hinge in an area farther from the column face, thus reducing the plastic strain equivalent to the panel zone and welding the beam-to-column connection area. The beam is connected to the slab on the side so that no plastic hinge is created against the side buckling. A numerical study has been performed to find the effectiveness of the proposed connection parameters. The results showed that following the limitations in this study, the SW-BFP connection had better hysteresis behavior than the SW connection. The deformation capacity of the connection in the SW-BFP connection (slotted web and bolt flange plate moment connection) has increased up to 112% compared to the connection of the beam with the slot web (SW). The sheet bolted to the beam flange on both sides of the beam with the slot die causes the buckling modes to occur later and reduces the stress by 23.93% in the beam-to-column connection area and 20.94% in the connection panel zone compared to the SW connection. Also, adding bolt-to-beam plates to the SW connection reduces the plastic strain in the panel zone by 87%, while the strain value in the beam-to-column connection area has reached zero.
期刊介绍:
The Earthquakes and Structures, An International Journal, focuses on the effects of earthquakes on civil engineering structures. The journal will serve as a powerful repository of technical information and will provide a highimpact publication platform for the global community of researchers in the traditional, as well as emerging, subdisciplines of the broader earthquake engineering field. Specifically, some of the major topics covered by the Journal include: .. characterization of strong ground motions, .. quantification of earthquake demand and structural capacity, .. design of earthquake resistant structures and foundations, .. experimental and computational methods, .. seismic regulations and building codes, .. seismic hazard assessment, .. seismic risk mitigation, .. site effects and soil-structure interaction, .. assessment, repair and strengthening of existing structures, including historic structures and monuments, and .. emerging technologies including passive control technologies, structural monitoring systems, and cyberinfrastructure tools for seismic data management, experimental applications, early warning and response
