Abstract:

location axis, joints, force-transforming plates, carrying capacityAbstract: Steel structure has been widely used all over the world. In actual construction process, steel structure inevitably has initial defects, which may have bad influences on its performance. Three groups of specimens were designed in this paper to compare the performance of rigid joints transferring forces outside box columns to that of perfect traditional joints and that of traditional joints with uniaxial and biaxial deviation of column's location axis by finite element method program ANSYS. From the analysis of stiffness, yielding capacity, and ultimate carrying capacity, the impact of force-transforming plates can be evaluated. The adding force-transforming plates were helpful to reduce the influence from column imperfect.
