Abstract

The purpose of the study described in this paper was to experimentally investigate branch squared T joints with cold formed hollow structural sections under the in plane moment in a Vierendeel Truss. The branch in the T joints was welded to the upper flange of the chord. The main experimental parameters were the ratio of the width to the thickness of the chord ($2{\gamma}$), with ${16.7{\leq}2{\gamma}{\leq}33.3}$, and the width ratio of the branch to the chord ($\beta$), with ${0.40{\leq}{\beta}{\leq}0.71}$. Nine specimens were tested and manufactured in joints under the in plane bending moment. Based on the results of the test, the in plane moment strength of the branch squared T joints was determined according to the bending deformation of the chord flange yielding, regardless of the ratio of the width to the thickness of the chord and the ratio of the width of the branch to the width of the chord. Also, the in plane moment strength of the branch squared T joints in the hollow structural sections can be defined as 1.5 times the moment load at M1%B the strength of the joints that governed the serviceability in the control group. Finally, the experimental results with the branch squared T joints show that the in lane moment strength of the joint increased as $2{\gamma}$ decreased and $\beta$ increased.

비렌딜 트러스가 면내 휨모멘트 하중을 받는 지관 정방형의 각형강관 T형 접합부의 거동을 실험적으로 조사하기 위한 것이 본 논문의 목적이다. T형 접합부에서 각형강관 주관 플랜지면의 위에 각형강관 지관이 용접으로 접합되어 있다. 주요 변수로는 주관 두께에 대한 폭의 비($2{\gamma}$)로 ${16.7{\leq}2{\gamma}{\leq}33.3}$의 범위이고, 주관 폭에 대한 지관 폭의 비인 폭비($\beta$)로 ${0.40{\leq}{\beta}{\leq}0.71}$이다. 접합부에 면내 휨모멘트 하중이 작용하도록 총 9개의 실험체를 제작하여 실험하였다. 실험결과, 각형강관 지관 정방형의 T형 접합부에 대한 면내 휨강도는 주관 폭두께비와 폭비에 관계없이 주관 플랜지 휨변형에 의해 결정됨을 알 수 있다. 또한, 지관 정방형의 각형강관 T형 접합부의 면내 휨강도는 사용성에 의해 지배되는 것으로 나타나 면내 최대 휨강도는 1%B 변형시의 휨강도($M_{1%B}$)에 1.5배로 평가할 수 있는 것을 알 수 있다. 최종적으로 지관 정방형의 각형강관 T형 접합부에 대한 면내 휨강도는 주관의 폭두께비가 작을수록, 주관 폭에 대한 지관 폭의 비인 폭비가 클수록 접합부의 휨강도는 선형으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.
