Abstract

This paper presents the findings of an internet based survey conducted on members of the UK steel construction industry. The survey was in the form of an online questionnaire that was open from April to October of 2015. The purpose of the survey was to aid the development of a programme of full scale dynamic testing on UK standard simple and/or semi rigid steel connections. The information that was obtained is of use to both the wider academic community and the steel industry itself. Findings of the survey indicate how often tubular box sections are used on projects, the most popular methods of connecting open sections to box sections, preferred choice of fasteners in blind connections, preferred methods of connecting open section beams to open section columns, how often stainless steel bolts are currently being used on construction projects and finally some additional comments on the design of simple and/or semi-rigid connections are presented that were provided by survey respondents.

当前英国使用简单和/或半刚性钢连接的趋势
本文介绍了对英国钢结构行业成员进行的基于互联网的调查结果。该调查以在线问卷的形式进行,于2015年4月至10月开放。该调查的目的是帮助制定英国标准简单和/或半刚性钢连接的全尺寸动态测试计划。所获得的信息对更广泛的学术界和钢铁工业本身都有用处。调查结果表明,管状箱形截面在工程中使用的频率、将开口截面连接到箱形截面的最常用方法、盲连接中紧固件的首选方法、将开口截面梁连接到开口截面柱的首选方法、不锈钢螺栓目前在建筑项目中使用的频率如何,最后给出了一些由调查受访者提供的关于简单和/或半刚性连接设计的额外评论。
