Experimental assessment of the semi-rigid connections behavior with angles and stiffeners
Abstract Experimental investigations were done on statically loaded beam-to-column connections that were designed with top-and-seat angles in minor column axes. This study was undertaken to analyze the influence of angles with and without stiffeners on the behavior of the beam-to-column connections. The aim was to provide necessary data to improve the Eurocode 3. While the rotation stiffness and capacity of the entire stiffener used beams decreased, the resistance moment increased. Moreover, the rotation capacity increased with the increased thickness of the top-and-seat angles.
Highlights The moment resistance, initial stiffener, and post-limit stiffener increased with the increasing lengths of angles. The moment resistance was increased by using a stiffener in the beam. The ductility levels of joints increased with the increasing stiffener thickness. The rotation at the maximum load and corresponding ductility of joints decreased with the increasing lengths of angles. The bending moment, the maximum moment and the plastic flexural resistance increased with the increased thickness of angles.
