Abstract

This paper presents test results on reduced beam section (RBS)program addressed panel zone (PZ) strength as the key variables. PZ strength has been much debated issue for several decades. A desirable range of PZ strength has not yet been proposed despite the fact that a significant amount of RBS test data is available. Test results from this study and by others showed that panel zones could easily develop a plastic rotation of 0.01 radian without causing distress to the beam flange groove welds. At this deformation level, the amount of beam distortion (i.e., buckling) was about one half that developed in strong PZ specimens. A criterion for a balanced PZ strength that improves the plastic rotation capacity while reducing the amount of beam buckling is proposed.

본 연구에서는 보 플랜지 절취형 (Reduced Beam Section, RBS) 철골모멘트접합부의 실험결과를 기초로 패널존의 적정강도를 제시하고자 하였다. RBS 충분한 실험자료가 보고 되어 있음에도 불구하고, 패널존의 적정강도 범위가 아직 제시된 바가 없다. 본 연구 및 다른 연구자의 실험결과에 의할 때, 패널존은 보 플랜지 그루브 용접부에 유해한 영향을 미치지 않고 0.01 radian의 소성회전각을 무난하게 발휘할 수 있음이 확인되었다. 또한 이 정도 크기의 패널존 소성변형을 허용하면 강한 패널존 시험체에 비해 횡비틀림 좌굴의 진폭이 절반 정도로 감소하였다. 이러한 실험적 관측을 토대로 RBS접합부의 소성변형능력을 향상시킴과 동시에 보의 소성힌지에 발생하는 좌굴의 크기를 줄일 수 있는 균형 패널존에 대한 강도 기준을 제안하였다.
