“…The first step is to determine whether the joint is a rigid or semi-rigid connection; if it is a rigid connection (generally a high-strength bolt connection with preload applied), the design value of the core zone shear is calculated following Equation (22); if it is a semi-rigid joint, the design value of the core zone shear is calculated following Equation (24).…”

“…However, not much research has been conducted on the assembly efficiency and post-disaster repair efficiency of joints. Oliveira et al [22] designed a new type of concrete beam-column joint which has about 80% of the flexural strength of a cast-in-place joint. However, because there is no corbel, temporary supports are needed to connect the beams and columns when assembling them.…”

A new type of assembled concrete beam–column joint based on a bolted connection was proposed, aiming to complete the post-earthquake node repair work by replacing precast beams and bolts. To study the seismic performance of the new beam–column joints, two full-scale components of the new joints were fabricated and subjected to low cyclic loading. The whole process from crack generation to component failure was investigated in detail, and seismic performance indicators such as the hysteresis curve, skeleton curve and stiffness degradation curve were compared and analyzed. Based on the experimental results, ABAQUS finite element software was applied to numerically simulate cast-in-place joints and test joints. Based on the failure mechanism of the new assembled beam–column semi-rigid joints, a stress analysis of semi-rigid joints was carried out. The research results show that the two new joints have good seismic performance and energy dissipation performance. Bolts and precast beams are the main stress components, and the repair of new joints can be completed by replacing bolts, which meets the seismic design concepts of “strong columns and weak beams” and “strong joints and weak components”. The larger the diameter of the bolts, the higher the load capacity and the lower the stiffness degradation rate. The finite element simulation results are high-accuracy and can well reflect the seismic performance of the components. It is found that cast-in-place joints are better in energy dissipation capacity than test joints, but the ultimate bearing capacity of test joints is better than that of cast-in-place joints. Based on the experimental stress characteristics of the nodal core zone, a mechanical analysis model of the nodal core zone of the new assembled concrete beam–column joints is proposed, and shear force calculation equations for the core zone of the new assembled concrete beam–column rigid joints and semi-rigid joints are derived.
