Fire performance of blind bolted composite beam to column joints

Experimental and numerical study of temperature developments of composite joints between concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube columns and reinforced concrete beams

“…Ceramic fibre blanket of approximately 30 mm in thickness was glued on the unexposed surfaces using high-temperature adhesive. The thermal properties of ceramic fibre blanket provided by the manufacturer were the same with [18]: density at ambient temperature, 128 kg/m 3 , and thermal conductivities 0.090, 0.176 and 0.220 W/(m•K) at 400 C, 800 C and 1000 C, respectively.…”

“…The study on joint behaviour initially focused on steel joints using various types of connections, at both the connection level and the beam-to-column subassembly level. Then it started to cover a wider range of composite steel-concrete joints, such as the joints connecting composite beams [9]- [10], composite columns [11]- [15] and combinations of them [16]- [18]. Studies on the behaviour of joints and frames subjected to seismic action and fire are also available [19]- [21].…”

“…18, taking specimens J0-5 (fire resistance test) and J0-4 (post-fire test) as examples because they were subjected to longer fire exposure. For clarity, the t curves for each specimen was presented in two subfigures.…”

Study on fire resistance of a prefabricated reinforced concrete frame structure

“…Gernay and Franssen (2015) developed a new multi-axial constitutive model for concrete in fire. The fire performance of eight full-scale blind bolted joints was studied by Song et al (2017). The test results indicated that the joint failure was mainly dominated by flexural failure of the steel beam near the panel zone.…”

Explicit simulation of bolted endplate composite beam-to-CFST column connections

“…Experimental studies have been carried out to predict the moment-rotation behaviour of bolted endplate beam-to-CFST column joints with steel beams [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] and composite beams [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. However, as summarised in Thai and Uy [26], the number of tests on the considered joints is still limited due to expensive cost and time consuming.…”
