Defect Tolerance for Cast Steel Connections in Braced Frames
During the last decade, various steel casting products for steel building structures have been developed, such as connectors between brace members and gusset plates in braced frames. Some casting products are welded to steel sections such as tubular members and I-section members in building structures, where these members are expected to develop their capacity during a large-scale earthquake. In this situation, brittle fracture can be another concern of the casting products if there are defects in the connections. A study of defect tolerance for cast steel connections is therefore very important to prevent brittle fracture from weld defects or casting defects. This paper describes defect tolerances for cast steel connections in braced frames and explores the possibility of brittle fracture from assumed defects in typical cast steel connectors. A parametric study, which investigates the sensitivity of brittle fracture to defect size, defect location, and material mismatch effects, is described through cast steel connector models. A toughness scaling model is used for evaluating the occurrence of brittle fracture from assumed defects in the models.
