Development of a new classification system for the cold-formed steel bolted clip-angle beam-to-column connections
A comprehensive experimental study was conducted on cold-formed steel (CFS) beam-to-column connections, which included a configuration featuring a 3-bolted clip-angle (CA) connecting the web portions and two flange-cleats (FC) linking the top and bottom flange sections of both the beam and column. A total of 22 laboratory tests were performed. An in-depth parametric analysis of the moment-rotation behaviour was carried out and design guidelines were suggested for the optimum design of the chosen connection. The observed failure modes in the tested specimens are local buckling and distortional buckling of the clip-angle connector, pull through and bearing failure in the top and bottom FC respectively. Most of these connections attain at least 80 % of the plastic moment capacities of the associated beam. A new classification system has been suggested for the CFS beam-to-column connections from the 108 collated test data of CFS connections with only web portions connected (Type 1), with web and top flange portions connected (Type 2) and web, top and bottom flange portions connected (Type 3). The CFS connections are classified into rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible types, depending on their strength and stiffness characteristics in relation to the properties of the connected CFS beam.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
