2012, 42(1): 1-7,61. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz201201001
Abstract:
High strength steel has been gradually applied in construction industry.As the strength of steel increases,the property of toughness degrades to some extent,particularly in the case of application at low temperature.Therefore,it is necessary to study the impact toughness of high strength steel.Impact toughness tests of 14 mm thick Q460-C steel at low temperature were performed,Charpy impact power level was compared with that of 60,90,120,and 150 mm thick Q345 steel at the same temperature respectively,besides the scanning electronic microscope of the Charpy-type specimen fracture surfaces with different temperature points were analyzed.And the results showed that:1)The impact toughness of Q460-C steel decrease with the descending temperature;2)Between 20 ℃ and-20 ℃,the low temperature impact power level of 14 mm thick Q460-C was lower than that of 150,120,90 mm and 60 mm thick Q345 at the same temperature;3)The influence of steel strength on low temperature brittleness of Q460-C was less obvious than that of steel depth on that of Q345;4)The fracture appearances of Charpy-type specimens of Q460-C,which break at-20 ℃ had finished the transition form ductile to brittle on the whole,with a large of significant brittle characteristics.Meanwhile,a Boltzmann function fit analysis was made on Charpy impact test results of Q460-C,obtaining-11.1 ℃ as the brittle ductile transition temperature.Test results showed that the low temperature brittleness of Q460-C and its welding seam were apparent,to which much attention should be paid.

Abstract:
The mechanical properties of steel under monotonic loading and cyclic loading are quite different,because of cyclic hardening,cyclic softening and bauschinger effect.Based on the monotonic and cyclic loading experiment of structural steel Q345 and Q460,the comparison of monotonic performance,cyclic loading phenomenon,cyclic performance and cyclic constitutive model were analyzed.The results showed that:the ductility was good under monotonic loading and Q460 was better.The stress-strain curves possed of the phenomenon of cyclic hardening,cyclic softening,and Bauschinger effect.The hardening was advanced under cyclic loading and Q345 was remarkable.The energy dissipation capacity of Q460 was not lower than Q345,and steel occured cumulative damage under cyclic loading.The mixed hardening model could well simulate the cyclic tension-compression curves,which might provide cyclic constitutive model accurately of Q345 and Q460 to study the seismic behavior of steel structures.

Abstract:
Aiming at the local buckling behavior of high strength steel welded box section columns,four axial compression tests of Q460 square box section stub columns were conducted.Based on the test results,the relation of buckling stress and ultimate stress of specimens with different width-to-thickness ratios were studied.Besides,test results were compared with the corresponding design methods and calculation formulae in Chinese,American,European steel structures design codes and method proposed by Chen Shaofan.The research work showed that the effective areas decreased and the post-buckling strength increased with width-to-thickness ratios;the value of the buckling stress of square box section stub columns in the Chinese steel structures design code was unreasonable;the calculation results of the American,European steel structures design codes and the design method proposed by Chen Shaofan were close,which were all little higher than the test results,so all the design methods were reasonable.A new design method was proposed to predict buckling stress of Q460 square box section stub columns,which was in need of revision;the design method proposed by Chen Shaofan and the calculating formula of Eurocode 3,which was in need of revision,were recommended to predict ultimate stress of Q460 square box section stub columns.

Abstract:
The use of high strength steel,particularly above grade Q460,has increased in recent years.But there are no regulations on bolted connections with high strength steel.Especially,there are significantly fewer investigations on the influence of end distance,edge distance or bolt spacing on the shear resistance of high strength steel in comparison to mild steel.Therefore,extensive experimental research on bolted connections made of high strength steel under static shear was put.It was tested 10 mm and 12 mm plate of grade Q460 steel.All test specimens with two M27 bolts class 10.9 bolts arranged in a transverse direction to the load axis were assembled with different dimensions to explore the influence of end distance,edge distance and bolt spacing.The objective of the research was to determine the ductility and resistance of such connections.Different failure modes of bolted connections could be observed in the test.The ultimate bearing capacity was compared with that predicted by the current connection provisions specified in Eurocode and AISC steel design standards.Recommendations concerning the adequacy of current design standards with respect to the design of high strength steel bolted connections were proposed.

Abstract:
In the specifications on detailing of stirrups and minimum hoop characteristic factors in column hoop densified regions,there exists large difference between Chinese Codes and related codes of other countries.So it is necessary to check the seismic behaviors of columns with different transverse reinforcement schemes in different codes.Moreover,it is needed to verify the seismic behaviors of columns designed to Chinese Codes using HRB500 rebars with a higher strength as longitudinal reinforcements.Reverse cyclic loading tests of 9 RC column specimens reinforced with HRB500 rebars were conducted.The test parameters included the transverse reinforcement ratio,hoop characteristic value,stirrup strength and arrangement of stirrups.The effects of these parameters on the failure mechanism,load-deflection hysteretic-curve,ductility,stiffness degradation and energy-dissipating capacity were analyzed.Different behaviors between the columns with HRB500 rebars and those with HRB335 rebars were discussed,with other parameters remaining the same.The results showed that when the details of stirrups in hoop densified regions confirming to the design codes,the columns reinforced with HRB500 rebars could meet the seismic requirements of deformability and ductility.

2012, 42(1): 89-93. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz201201017
Abstract:
The calculation of deflection for concrete structural member that was put forward in Code for Design of Concrete Structures was an approximate method.Similar methods were also put forward in some foreign codes or standards for concrete structures.The mentality for this kind of approximation calculation consisted of two steps.Firstly,curvature was calculated with bending moment.Secondly,deflection was calculated by curvature with the help of mechanics.It was unreasonable to calculate deflection by curvature with the help of mechanics.Essentially,the calculation of deflection by curvature was a geometric problem,and integral method should be used to resolve this problem.Based on the numerical equation between the deflection and its derivative or the relation between the derivatwe and the second derivative of deflection in finite integral solution,deflection-curvature matrix was derived by matrix operation,and the curvature-deflection equation was derived with functional relation (x)=-z(x).The curvature-deflection equations for some kinds of common boundary conditions were discussed.The methods and formulae of deflection calculation for concrete structural member were put forward.Calculation showed that it was convenient to improve the approximation calculation of deflection for concrete element by finite integral method.The accuracy of calculation was greatly improved.

2012, 42(1): 94-97,148. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz201201018
Abstract:
In a tier building or tall building with frame structure,the total building structural system consists of stairs structure and frame structure.This total structural system may be called frame-stairs system.Unreasonable joints of stairs structure can bring some bad characteristics of this frame-stairs system.Such unreasonable stairs may be destroyed badly in earthquake,and escape way may be cut off.The bad characteristics of this structural system were shown by push-over analysis.Based on the conclusions of push-over analysis,a kind of reasonable joint of stairs structure in frame-stairs system was put forward.By this kind of joint,the way transfering horizontal loads down in stairs was cut off.In this case,stairs elements won't participate in transfering down horizontal earthquake actions of building,and the destruction of stairs elements might be avoided.Adopting such structure,it may be possible for stairs to become safety island.

Chen Jinfeng, Song Erxiang, Xu Ming
2012, 42(1): 103-109. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz201201020
Abstract:
The strength reduction FEM was adopted to analyze slope stability influenced by the gradient of inclined rock ground as well as interface roughness between the fills and the ground.Safety factors,the most dangerous sliding surface as well as their difference from those calculated by the simplified Bishop method were presented.The results showed that for filled slope on inclined intact rock ground,the sliding surface was quite different from circular surface in some cases.There would be considerable error if safety factors were calculated by the simplified Bishop method.Furthermore,for filled slope on inclined intact rock ground with non-full rough interface,there were restriction mechanisms of the inclined rock ground with relatively high strength and weaking mechanisms of the interface,acting on the sliding surface.The former enhanced slope stability,while the latter acted the opposite.The calculation also showed that FEM with strength reduction,applied to the stability analysis of high filled slopes on mountainous ground,could give more realistic shape and position of the sliding surface and consequently more reliable results for the safety factor.In contrast,the conventional limit equilibrium analysis methods,with the usual assumption of circular sliding surface,might give poor results for this type of complicated problems.FEM with strength reduction was simple and efficient.Therefore,its application prospect was more extensive than limit equilibrium method.

Abstract:
The failure modes of underreamed ground anchors in sand under vertical pullout,which were embedded in various depths,were researched by model test.The test results exhibited three different modes of failure depending on the embedment ratio.The rupture surface of shallow underreamed anchor presented like an inverted bell,inclined slightly inward as it extended to the sand surface.The failure mode of shallow underreamed anchor was known as general shear failure,shallow underreamed anchors should not be used in practice.The rupture surface of deep underreamed anchor was completely limited inside sand and presented like a ellipsoid.There was no deformation in the shallow sand layer either during or after pullout,and the failure of underreamed anchors embedded in deep sand resulted from local shear failure.It was highly recommended to apply the deep underreamed ground anchors in design.There was another type of underreamed anchor between shallow and deep underreamed anchors,namely the transitional anchor,and a combined failure surface of the anchor was appeared in the failure zone.But the failure mode of the transitional anchor was near to the shallow one,which was classified as the shallow failure mode.

Abstract:
Carbonation of high performance concrete under freeze-thaw cycles was studied with different fly ash proportion(0%,20%,40%,60%);the new rules to estimate carbonation of concrete under freeze-thaw cycles were defined.The influence of different fly ash proportion and different freeze-thaw damage on carbonation was analyzed quantitatively by image processing techniques.Experiment results showed that the carbonation of concrete after freeze-thaw cycles was different from the traditional carbonation of concrete.The traditional testing method using carbonation depth could not express new feature of carbonation after freeze-thaw damage.And the new testing method using carbonation area could better express the carbonation law.The carbonation area and fly ash proportion subject quadratic equation =45.12-1.35FA+0.035FA2;and the carbonation area and freeze-thaw damage degree linear equation =35+0.306x.The research on the carbonation of concrete under freeze-thaw cycles possesses the real meaning to the structure durability and life prediction of concrete in the freeze-thaw area.

Abstract:
The steel fibers used in fiber reinforced concrete were shaped with flattened end or hooked end to strengthen the anchoring effect between the concrete matrix and fibers.However,the mechanical difference of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete(UHPFRC) with these two deformed fibers remains to be confirmed experimentally.In this paper,the end-flattened and end-hooked fibers were used in producing UHPFRC with the fiber volume ratio of 1%,2%,2.5% and 3% to investigate the different fiber reinforcing effect.The results showed that with the fiber volume ratio of 2%,the UHPFRC with end-flattened achieved the best workability and mechanical performance;with the fiber volume ratio of 2%~2.5%,the flexural strength and fracture energy of UHPFRC with end-flattened fibers exceeded that of end-hooked fibers;due to the better anchoring effect,UHPFRC beams with end-hooked fibers behaved more ductile than that with end-flattened fibers after the peak load.

Abstract:
Some of the problems such as silo categories,load effect fundamental combination and selection of correlation coefficient,calculation of stored material pressure,structural of design etc.were detected while using GB 500772003 Code for Design of Reinforced Concrete Silos to calculate and design a silo.By elaborating and discussing thoroughly,meaningful conclusions were proposed: the silo structure classification was clear;load effect and seismic action effect combination formulas were analysed;relevant provisions of the stored material load calculating and structure design were explained.

Abstract:
A novel type of steel plate composite shear wall was presented.Four steel plate shear walls specimens and one composite shear wall with various ratio of width-thickness were tested by jack.The failure mode,the shear strength,the lateral stiffness,and the buckling mode were investigated by experiment.The results indicated that ratio of width-thickness of steel plate would determine the shear-carrying capacity and failure mode;and the small ratio of width-thickness of steel plate required adequate anchorage to avoid failure of boundary;although the lateral stiffness of steel plate has little enhancement by the precast concrete plate,the buckling strength and shear strength of steel plate wall were improved by them.Through theoretical analysis,the formula of shear strength of steel plate wall with trilateral constrained and one elastic restraint side,and the one of composite shear wall were proposed based on experiment and numerical simulation.At last,the thicknesses of precast concrete plate applied to steel plate wall with various ratio of width-thickness were presented.

Abstract:
Because of the change of functions,a six-story frame industrial workshop was reconstructed to a nine-story frame structure building used as hotel.The field inspection and seismic appraisal of the original building were carried out,the results could meet various requirements of the present Chinese code.According to the problems when storey adding directly,for instance,the ratios of the axial compression to axial compressive strength of some frame columns would be beyond the limit,the longitudinal reinforcement ratios of frame beams would be less than the service level,and some stories drift would be beyond the limit of seismic design code,strengthening designs,including pressure grouting in treatment for foundation like enlarging cross-section of columns and beams,and adding short pier shear wall to increase the lateral displacement stiffness of structure were provided.Based on the analysis of the structure after strengthening,the effect of the seismic strengthening design was excellent.
