Stress Impact Analysis of Steel Frame with Different Beam-column Connection Mode Gang Wang College of Architecture and Civil Engineering , Taiyuan University of Technology, Taiyuan 030024, China wg666888@126.com Key words: semi-rigid connection; Node; steel frame; SAP2000 Abstract：This paper uses the SAP2000 to establish different beam column connections of steel frame structure finite element model, comparative analysis of the beam column for the rigid connection, hinged, semi-rigid connections of steel frame structure, the dynamic characteristics of structure displacement and internal force influence.
Semi-rigid connection mode has been widely applied to the steel structure engineering, but the semi-rigid nodes steel structure calculation and analysis method is not mature, with semi-rigid nodes steel structure is necessary to further research.
In the practical engineering structure and fully articulated or rigid connection analysis inaccuracy, consider beam-column semi-rigid nodes can be more accurate to evaluate the seismic performance of the semi-rigid nodes steel structure is necessary to further research.

Stochastic Prediction for Frost Heave Effect of a Subway Tunnel Taiquan Zhou1, a 11College of Environmental and Civil Engineering, Jiangnan University, Jiangsu Wuxi, P.R.
In Japanese and Europe, the artificial freezing construction method has been used in city subway municipal engineering.
Also the artificial freezing method was used in the Zhang Fuyuan-Sanshanjie corridor in Nanjing subway first line engineering.
The horizontal freezing method is often used in tunnel and underground engineering structure construction.

Experimental study on shear strength of west Sichuan unsaturated mixed-soil Kai Cui1,a, Bang Wen Huang1,b 1School of Civil Engineering Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, China a cuikai80@hotmail.com, b hbwen1989@126.com Keywords: unsaturated mixed-soil; shear strength; matrix suction Abstract.
Introduction Engineering practice shows that the typical mixed-soil of the colluvium in west Sichuan belongs to unsaturated soil.
So in engineering practice, when the two kinds of soil are met, it is better to improve the condition of dewatering for improving the shearing strength of the soil than compact the soil.

Introduction The concept of reliability was put forward by Freudenthal in 1947[1], and the reliability problems were paid wide attention by academic and engineering field.
In engineering practice, the limit state function of most complex structure is an implicit expression.
All these numerical results of the sensitivity derivatives can provide a quantitative basis for the engineer to design a reliable and robust structure system.
