Abstract
This paper provides the results of an experimental and analytical study performed on the beam to Concrete Filled Circular Steel Column connections with the external stiffener rings under the gravity loads. Specimens are modeled as a 1/4 scale of the beam-columns as gravity loads are applied to a multi-story frame. Important parameters in this study are the width of the external rings, the diameter-thickness ratios of column and whether or not the external rings are welded to the circular column. A total of 20 specimens are tested to clarify the structural behavior of the CFT column connections with the external stiffener rings. The test results are summarized for the yield and maximum strength and stiffness. The existing design equations for the allowable and yield load capacities are referred to verify the structural characteristics for the connections.
연직하중을 받는 콘크리트충전 원형강관기둥 외다이아프램 접합부의 거동을 파악하고자 실험을 통하여 그 내력을 평가하고 각 변수에 따른 영향도를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 다층골조의 보-기둥을 실물크기 1/4규모로 모델화시켜 총 20개의 실험체를 제작하였으며 스티프너 보강유무, 스티프너 폭, 강관두께, 강관과 스티프너의 용접유무 등을 주요변수로 두어 본 연구를 수행하였다.
