A kind of accordion-web RBS connection, "Tubular Web RBS (TW-RBS)" connection is proposed in this research. TW-RBS is made by replacing a part of web with a tube at the desirable location of the beam plastic hinge. This paper presents first a numerical study under cyclic load using ABAQUS finite element software. A test specimen is used for calibration and comparison of numerical results. Obtained results indicated that TW-RBS would reduce contribution of the beam web to the whole moment strength and creates a ductile fuse far from components of the beam-to-column connection. Besides, TW-RBS connection can increase story drift capacity up to 9% in the case of shallow beams which is much more than those stipulated by the current seismic codes. Furthermore, the tubular web like corrugated sheet can improve both the out-of-plane stiffness of the beam longitudinal axis and the flange stability condition due to the smaller width to thickness ratio of the beam flange in the plastic hinge region. Thus, the tubular web in the plastic hinge region improves lateral-torsional buckling stability of the beam as just local buckling of the beam flange at the center of the reduced section was observed during the tests. Also change of direction of strain in arc shape of the tubular web section is smaller than the accordion webs with sharp corners therefore the tubular web provides a better condition in terms of low-cycle fatigue than other accordion web with sharp corners.

The research study is focuses on a form of all-bolted joint with the external ring stiffening plate in the prefabricated steel structure. The components are bolted at site after being fabricated in the factory. Six specimens were tested under cyclic loading, and the effects of column axial compression ratio, concrete-filled column, beam flange sub plate, beam web angle cleats, and spliced column on the failure mode, hysteretic behavior and ductility of the joints were analyzed. The results shown that the proposed all-bolted joint with external ring stiffening plate performed high bearing capability, stable inflexibility degradation, high ductility and plump hysteretic curve. The primary failure modes were bucking at beam end, cracking at the variable section of the external ring stiffening plate, and finally welds fracturing between external ring stiffening plate and column wall. The bearing capability of the joints reduced with the axial compression ratio increased. The use of concrete-filled steel tube column can increase the bearing capability of joints. The existence of the beam flange sub plate, and beam web angle cleat improves the energy dissipation, ductility, bearing capacity and original rigidity of the joint, but also increase the stress concentration at the variable section of the external reinforcing ring plate. The proposed joints with spliced column also performed desirable integrity, large bearing capacity, initial stiffness and energy dissipation capacity for engineering application by reasonable design.

The flow velocity distribution at inlet and exit of Diesel Particulate Filter(DPF) by fabricating L-shape connector with the DPF was measured using a Pitot-tube and 2-D transverse machine. An adaptor designed for making the Pitot tube probe access to the inlet and exit of the DPF was connected with the inlet and exit flange of the DPF, respectively. The Pitot tube which was mounted in the 2-D positioning machine could access to the inlet and exit of the DPF through the rectangular window of the adaptor. The L-shape connector in the DPF inlet has a flow guide which is a perforated steel pipe. The flow velocity distribution at the inlet of the DPF showed a chaotic velocity distribution which is different from that with a diffuser type connector. The velocity distribution at the exit of the DPF showed a crown shape which is similar to that of the diffuser type connector. The velocity distribution at the exit of DPF showed different patterns according to the air flow rate.

CFT 구조는 각형이나 원형강관에 콘크리트가 충전된 구조로서, 강관은 콘크리트를 구속하고 콘크리트는 강관의 좌굴을 방지함으로써 부재의 강성 및 강도를 증가시킬 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 관통 다이아프램 충전개구부 형상이 각형CFT 기둥-보 접합부의 내력에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통해 확인한 후, 유한요소해석을 수행하여 실험 결과와 비교 검증했다. 이로써 각형CFT 기둥-보 접합부의 내력은 관통 다이아프램의 개구부 면적이 같을 경우 그 형상에 크게 영향을 받지 않으며, 관통 다이아프램과 보 플랜지의 접합부분 형상 및 치수가 동일하면, 보에 발생한 휨응력이 다이아프램을 통해 기둥으로 전달되고 있음을 확인하였다.

The concrete-filled tube (CFT) column has the excellent structural performance. But it is difficult to connect with column and beam because of closed section. Its Solution, 2 members of ㄷchennel in which Internal diaphragm is installed were welded beforehand and the method of making Rectangular Steel Tube was proposed. According to upside and downside junction shape, Internal diaphragm suggested as symmetric specimen and asymmetric specimen. The upper and lower diaphragm of the Symmetric specimen used the same horizontal and The upper diaphragm of the Asymmetric specimen used the horizontal plate and the lower diaphragm used the vertically plate. In this research, 4 T-shape column to beam steps connections were tested with cyclic loading experiment in order to evaluate the structural capability of the offered connection.

최근 합성 보-기둥 접합부를 위한 복합모멘트접합(hybrid moment connection)상세가 개발되었다. 기둥으로 팔각형태의 콘크리트 충전강관이 사용되었고, 보에는 U단면 콘크리트 충전강관이 사용되었다. 보-기둥 모멘트접합을 위해 보 강관은 기둥 강판에 직접 용접되었다. 하지만 보 하부 플랜지는 응력집중을 피하기 위하여 기둥 강판에 용접되지 않았고, 대신 보 플랜지의 인장력을 전달하기 위해 기둥 관통철근이 사용되었다. 기존 외다이어프램 보강상세 및 복합모멘트접합 상세를 갖는 총 4개의 실험체를 제작하고, 반복하중실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 복합모멘트접합 상세는 보 플랜지의 인장력이 기둥 내부로 효과적으로 전달되었다. 또한, 하중재하능력 및 변형능력이 기존 외다이어프램 상세와 거의 동일한 수준으로 나타났다. 하지만, 최종 접합부 파괴모드는 복합모멘트접합 상세에 따라 영향을 받았다.

The connection with combined cross diaphragm is developed for the connection of square CFT column and steel beam and proposed to be used for the frame with asymmetric span length. The structural characteristics of this connection lie in the penetration of the beam flange in the direction of major axis through the column for the smooth flow of stress. The purpose of this study is to analyze the dynamic behavior and stress flow of suggested connection and to evaluate the resistance to shock of connection. Four T-type CFT column-to-beam specimens; two with combined cross diaphragm and the others with interior and through diaphragms, the existing connection types, were made for cyclic load test guided by the load program of ANSI/AISC SSPEC 2002. The results show that the proposed connection is more efficient than existing ones in terms of strength, stress flow and energy absorption and satisfies the seismic performance required in the region of weak/moderate earthquakes.

The objective of this study is to clarify the structural features of members consisting of connection, as a series of the previous study on the CFT column-to-beam tensile connection with combined cross diaphragm. This connection has the merits that the stress is distributed evenly on the beam flange and the diaphragm and the stress concentration is reduced, by improving the stress transfer route and restraining abrupt deformation of diaphragm. The finite element analysis was performed to find out the stress transfer through sleeve which is an important member of the connection with combined cross diaphragm. The length and thickness of sleeve were used as variables for the analysis. As the analysis results, the length and thickness of sleeve didn't influence on the capacity of the connection and played a role of a medium to transfer the stress from the diaphragm to the filled concrete. It is proposed that the appropriate length of sleeve be the same value as the diameter of sleeve and the appropriate ratio of sleeve diameter to sleeve thickness be 20. Two equations for evaluation of the load-carrying capacity of the connection were also proposed through the modification of the evaluation equation suggested in the previous study.

본 논문은 콘크리트충전 각형강관 기둥-H형강보 접합부로서 기둥을 관통하는 철근과 T-스티프너를 외부에 보강한 새로운 접합부상세를 제안하고, 5개의 십자형 접합부 실험체를 역대칭 반복가력 실험하였다. 실험변수는 T-스티프너의 길이(200, 250mm), 철근의 직경(HDl6, 19)이다. 실험결과 T-스티프너 길이의 증가가 철근의 강도비 증가보다 내력 및 강성에 미치는 영향이 보다 크고, T-스티프너의 보강만으로도 보붕괴형의 안정적인 이력거동을 나타내었다. 또한, T-스티프너와 강관 코너부의 용접 시에는 취성파괴의 가능성에 주의하고, 본 논문에서 제안한 용접방법을 따르는 것이 적절할 것으로 판단된다.
