Wang Yuanqing, Yuan Huanxin, Shi Yongjiu, Yang Lu
2012, 42(5): 1-11. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205001
Abstract:
Stainless steels have unique properties such as favorable corrosion resistance and durability,which could be a satisfactory solution to the corrosion problem of ordinary steel structures.Naturally,service lives of structures are able to get prolonged while the maintenance cost can be reduced provided that stainless steel structural members are adopted in building structures.On account of nonlinear material properties,the stiffness of stainless steel structural members would degenerate with the growth of stresses.Meanwhile,high material cost necessitates more economic design comparing with ordinary steel structures.Consequently,special attention should be paid to the stability of stainless steel structural members.This paper presents status quo and advances of stability research on stainless steel structural members,and analyzes current design provisions in foreign countries.Based upon the recent research and design development,recommendations are made on related research activities regarding the deficiency of experimental results and design provisions in China.

2012, 42(5): 12-20. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205002
Abstract:
ANSYS is employed to study the overall buckling properties of stainless steel cold formed tubular columns under axial load.Non-linear property of material,the effect of cold-formed,local and overall imperfection as well as the residual stress are considered in this model.The comparisons between test results and the calculated results are performed in order to verify the FEM model.Comparisons indicate that the developed FEM model could represent the test exactly and the deviations in average are limited in 5%. Then the influences of varieties of factor are valued.The results of parameterized analysis conclude that: the influence of the increase strength in the corner region,the parameters variation of the material property and the amplitude of the overall imperfection could cause considerable changes in the buckling strength of stainless columns; shifts in section types almost do not influence the buckling strength.The conclusion could be regarded as the foundation of the design method for cold-formed stainless steel columns.

Shu Ganping, Zheng Baofeng, Shen Xiaoming
2012, 42(5): 21-28. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205003
Abstract:
Test results of the stainless steel material property indicate that: considerable difference exists among different states of the same type stainless steel and also exists among varieties of type.However this difference is not directly considered in the typical design codes existing in the world.Based on the verified FEM model,total 30 column curves are calculated that covered the range of material properties in common use.The concept of modification slenderness ratio is utilized to modify the Perry formula and the K&R formula; at last,new design formula is obtained for calculating the buckling strength of stainless steel columns.Comparisons between the available test result and the proposed approach are conducted.The comparisons indicated that the proposed approach could fit the test results well.This approach could be used as a reference for the first version of stainless steel design code of China.

2012, 42(5): 29-32. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205004
Abstract:
In order to investigate the inelastic deformation behavior of stainless steel beams,4 stainless steel welded beams under pure bending and concentrated loading were performed.The tested material was austenitic stainless steel 316. The relationship between load and deflection was discussed and comparison between test results and results obtained by finite element method was made.The results showed that the deformation behavior of stainless steel performed non-linear load-deflection relationship because of the influence of nonlinear material properties; when yield load reached,the plastic deflection was about half of total one; plastic deflection increased remarkably when out-of- plane displacement took place.The test results can provide a basis for the deflection calculation of the domestic stainless steel I-beams.

2012, 42(5): 33-40. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205005
Abstract:
Test investigation was performed on the stainless steel flexural members with sections consist of SHS,RHS and welding H section.The flexural members were made in austenitic stainless steel type 304. The test included 39 flexural members totally with 11differernt size sections.The test demonstrated that the simply supported SHS and RHS beams mainly have three different failure modes with different constraint to web and different load methods: flexural failure,web crippling and the combination of flexural failure and web crippling.On the other hand,the beams with welding H-sections were liable to flexural-torsional buckling.Then the test results were compared to the results obtained by EN1993-1-4 and SEI/ASCE 8-02 in the following aspects: the flexural capacity,the nonlinear deflection and the stability coefficient of the welding H-beam.These comparisons indicate that: test results of flexural strength and flexural-torsional buckling strength were higher than those predictions using above design codes; deflections predicted using above design codes were smaller than tests results.

2012, 42(5): 134-138,156. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205026
Abstract:
This paper presents a review of advances in research on fire resistance and high temperature properties of high-strength concrete (HSC) and ultra-high-strength concrete (UHSC).Further research needs in the near future on UHSC,especially on reactive powder concrete (RPC),are also discussed.It is commonly recognized that HSC suffers strength loss in a manner basically similar to that of normal strength concrete.But the main problem of HSC is explosive spalling under high temperature,which can be solved by employing either polymer fiber or steel fiber.The objectives of fire resistance research are to restrain explosive spalling and minimizing spalling probability,so as to ensure satisfactory fire resistance of RPC.It is expected that in-depth research will be carried out on fracture properties,and micro-structure,resulting in establishment of a mechanism for improving fire resistance of RPC as well as technical measures.

2012, 42(5): 139-145. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205027
Abstract:
The seismic behavior of frame side joints of the steel high-strength reinforced concrete with dog-bone type weakening has been investigated based on the experiment and analysis of nine joint specimens,under cyclic loading. The test results show that well designed HSRC frame joint with dog-bone type weakening has good displacement ductility and hysteretic behavior.The joint,whose axial compression ratio is small,hysteretic curve is full and skeleton curve is gentle,has a better ductility and energy dissipation.In condition of the same or close axial compression ratio,the seismic performance,including the ductility and energy dissipation capacity of the joint with dog-bone type weakening is clearly superior to that of the ordinary joint,and the displacement ductile coefficient is increased by 10% to 25%. When the dog-bone type weakening is taken on the flanges of the steel at the beam end near the joint,the plastic hinge of the beam may be transferred from the root of beam end to the weakened position, thus the seismic behavior of the joints may be improved effectively and the ductile design can be realized.

Shao Jinsong, Liu Weiqing, Jiang Tong, Jiang Jianqiang
2012, 42(5): 151-156. doi: 10.13204/j.gyjz2011205029
Abstract:
The experimental investigation concerning the flexional behavior of 36 cylindrical wood beams reinforced with FRP sheets were conducted.The work mechanism and failure modes of the specimens were discussed in details. The parameters of the specimens were number,types and the location of FRP sheets.The effect of design parameters of the specimens on the carrying capacity and deflection of beams was analyzed.The results show that FRP in the tension zone of the wood beam can improve the capacity effectively.The capacity of wood beam is increased by 30. 61% with one layer sheet of CFRP in tension zone.The lateral FRP wound in the pure flexion zone can improve the behavior of the compression zone of wood beam,and increase its flexional capacity effectively.The increased extent is related with the number of FRP sheets.The failure of reinforced wood beam presents the folded fiber in the compressive zone and broken wood fiber in the tension zone.The effect of FRP in the compression zone on the bending capacity of timber beam is related to the strengthened forms.The reinforcement effect of the lateral FRP wound in the compression zone is the best,but little effect is found along the longitudinal FRP.
