Test Analysis of Stiffened T-Stub Connections

Abstract:

To investigate the effect of stiffener on the stiffness and strength of T-stubs, 3 T-stub connections without stiffeners and 6 stiffened T-stub connections with varied shape and thickness of stiffeners were tested monotonically. The load carrying capacity, relative deformations of endplates and strains on the stiffeners and endplates were measured. The load-deformation curves of the connections and load-strain curves were presented. The test results showed that the commonly used stiffeners in current Chinese practice often yield or/and buckle prematurely. And the stiffener designed by the method can meet the requirement in CECS102-2002, which demands that the stiffener should be able to force the extended portion of endplates from clamped-free boundary to plates fixed on two adjacent boundaries.
