Beam to concrete-filled rectangular hollow section column joints using long bolts

Structural behaviour of stainless steel beam-to-tubular column joints

“…Other less fabrication-intensive connection details have also been explored involving various bolting techniques. A conceptually simple bolted connection involving bolts long enough to go through the column section has been experimentally investigated by Hoang et al [17] for concrete filled SHS. However, the resulting connection detail is difficult to execute on site and could induce additional cost.…”
