Resistance of truss N shape joints made with steel RHS in plug & play connections

Author(s): Jerzy Szlendak, Piotr Oponowicz
Subject(s): Architecture
Published by: Biblioteka Politechniki Lubelskiej
Keywords: Steel truss N shape RHS joints; non-welded plug &play connections; numerical estimation of resistance by ANSYS software; tests of six joints in natural scale

Summary/Abstract: Research on resistance of truss N shape RHS joints is presented. Experimental evidence of such joint behaviour tested in natural scale is described. Geometry and material properties of the tested six connections are given. For each specimen axial-deflection curves are presented. The comparison between numerical models by ANSYS software and experimental results is shown. Finally, some important conclusions are given.
