“…For example, aluminium alloy members joined by means of stainless steel connection components, as shown in Fig. 16 [29], have been found to have improved fire-resistance compared to fully aluminium alloy solutions. Moreover, analogous to concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) cross-sections, innovative timber-filled aluminium alloy tubular (TFAAT) cross-sections, utilising aluminium alloys for the outer tube as shown in Fig.…”

“…The growth in the use of aluminium alloys in structural applications has been matched by a growth in research activities. Specifically, a large number of studies have been performed over the past few decades to investigate the material properties of aluminium alloys [5,6], as well as the structural performance of aluminium alloy elements [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26], connections and joints [27][28][29][30] and systems [31] at ambient temperature. To date, four international standards [32][33][34][35] have been developed for the design of aluminium alloy structures.…”

“…Based on this study, a new method was proposed to predict the location and distance more accurately between the plastic hinges compared to the existing method in the EC9 standard for bolted T-stub. Wang et al [40] investigated five full-scale aluminium top and seat angle cleats (TSAC) joints and three full-scale aluminium top, seat, and web angle cleats (TSWAC) joints connected by swage-locking pins, Figure 4. It should be noted that two different materials were used for the angle cleats: aluminium alloy AW 6061-T6 and stainless steel S304.…”

Jezgre mnogih europskih gradova, koje su ujedno i gradska kulturna središta, čine blokovi zgrada sastavljeni uglavnom od zidanih konstrukcija. Ograničen prostor za širenje i rast broja stanovnika rezultirali su formiranjem blokova zgrada. Iznimka nije ni Hrvatska, primjerice blokovi su karakterističan tip gradnje u Donjem gradu u Zagrebu. S obzirom da se ponašanje građevina u bloku u slučaju potresa razlikuje od ponašanja samostojećih konstrukcija, za građevinske inženjere one predstavljaju poseban izazov. Rad prikazuje dva pristupa procjene oštetljivosti konstrukcija, s naglaskom na utjecaj bloka, tj. na međudjelovanje konstrukcija.

“…Most of the research is related to joint components with mechanical fasteners, i.e., T-stubs [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. In recent years, research has started on bolted beam-to-column joints in full-scale [23,24] to characterise their behaviour, and thus the behaviour of aluminium frame systems. On the other hand, welded aluminium beam-to-column joints are the subject of very little research and no full-scale laboratory tests for such joints are currently found in the literature.…”

Parametric Numerical Study of Welded Aluminium Beam-to-Column Joints

Beam-to-column joints are one of the most common types of joints in metal structures. In the design of load-bearing aluminium structures, welding, as a joining method, is often avoided because of localised degradation of mechanical properties in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). However, recent experimental studies on the extent and strength of the HAZ show a significant difference compared to very conservative design rules when modern welding techniques are used. Therefore, the numerical study conducted in this paper addresses the influence of HAZ on the mechanical behaviour of the welded aluminium beam-to-column joint. Parametric numerical analyses were performed varying the aluminium alloys, the reduced mechanical properties of the HAZ, and different definitions of the HAZ extent. The obtained results show that the highest stress concentration occurs at the connection between the top beam flange and the column flange, resulting in plastic softening in this region. Different joint capacities were observed by varying the mechanical properties of the HAZ. A detailed overview of numerical models as well as the obtained moment–rotation curves show that the behaviour of some models is not as conservative as assumed in the design standards considered.
