Ultimate Strength, Ductility, and Failure Mode of High-Strength Frictional Bolted Joints Made of High-Strength Steel
Abstract:Further structural rationalization of steel bridges such as weight reduction of members can be realized by using high-strength steel. However, owing to the high yield-to-tensile strength ratio, failure of connected members occurs before the members in the gross area are plastic-deformed sufficiently. In this study, tensile tests of frictional bolted joints with various geometrical configurations and grades of plates and bolts were conducted to compare the failure modes of high-strength and mild steel joints an… Show more
