Ultimate strength of CFST-gusset plate joints with ring stiffener plates under tension
Highlights A concrete-filled steel tube-gusset plate joint with ring stiffener plates is proposed. The mechanical properties of the specimens were derived and analysed. The equivalent interaction method (EIM) was introduced to predict the ultimate strength of CFST-gusset plate joint with ring stiffener plates under tension.
Abstract Tube-gusset plate joints are increasingly adopted in large lattice towers for wind power, due to the advantages of simple fabrication and clear force transmission path. To investigate the mechanical performance of CFST-gusset plate joints with ring stiffener plates, tensile bearing capacity tests of three tube-gusset plate joints were performed in this study. The test results showed that setting ring stiffener plates and filling concrete could effectively improve the stiffness and tensile bearing capacity of tube-gusset plate joints. In addition, the finite element (FE) models were established in this study, and the accuracy of the FE models was verified by comparing it with the test results. Parameter analysis showed that the increase of the width ratio (R/D) and thickness ratio (t r/t) of the ring stiffener plate and the width ratio (L GP/D) of the gusset plate was a significant method to improve the ultimate strength of tube-gusset plate joints under tension. But when the width ratio and thickness ratio of ring stiffener plates exceeded the limit relationship, the ultimate strength of joints would not be further improved, which was easy to cause waste of materials. Finally, to simplify the calculation of CFST-gusset plate joints with the ring stiffener plates, an equivalent interaction method (EIM) was proposed in this study, which could accurately predict the ultimate strength of CFST-gusset plate joints with ring stiffener plates under tension.
