The design of structural steel frames under consideration of the nonlinear behaviour of joints

Generalised component-based model for beam-to-column connections including axial versus moment interaction

“…Tables Table 1. Summary of the mechanical models to predict the joint behaviour. Kennedy & Hafez (1984) Header plate connections T-stub: axial force Chmielowiec & Richard (1987) All types of cleated connections Bending moment and shear Welded connections Bending moment Tschemmernegg & Humer (1988) Endplate bolted connections Bending moment Madas (1993) Jaspart et al (1999) and Cerfontaine (2003) Note: f cp u is given in section 2.1, k cp p and k cp u are given in Eqs. 1 and 2, respectively.…”

“…The moment-rotation curves for fully welded connections were determined via the model for all possible combinations of beams and columns made of European rolled sections IPE, HEA and HEB. This model was extended by Tschemmernegg & Humer (1988) for endplate bolted connections by adding new springs (Fig. 4, springs C), to take into account the new sources of deformation.…”

Experimental and numerical evaluation of rigid column to baseplate connection under cyclic loading

“…There are different models proposed for connection behaviors. Wales and Rossow established a component‐based approach, and Tschemmernegg and Humer developed a component‐based model for applying in three typical springs regarding welded connections with end plates. Madas and Elnashai proposed an analytical model based on component by which general equation of moment–rotation is formed by overlapping the participation of components.…”

Mechanical modeling of the nonlinear response of beam-to-column joints

“…The intended scope of the modeling is the calculation of the joint M-ϕ curve or its characteristic properties of strength, initial rotational stiffness and rotational capacity. Various mechanical models have been proposed in the past for several connection typologies [2][3][4][5]8,[15][16][17][18][19].…”
