| الوصف: | In this study, cyclic seismic performance of weak-axis reduced beam section (RBS) welded steel moment connections was experimentally investigated. Experimental results of this study again showed that the weak-axis RBS moment connection designed based on the procedure proposed by Gilton and Uang (J Struct Eng 122:1292–1299, 2002) performs well and developed an excellent seismic performance much better than 4% story drift with 80% of beam plastic capacity. However, it was also shown that the sharp corner of C-shaped fillet weld, used for attaching the beam web to the shear plate, can be the origin of crack propagation owing to stress concentration there. Slight trimming of the sharp corner is recommended to reduce notch effect. One specimen in this study eventually failed due to low cycle fatigue fracture as a result of cyclic flange local buckling that occurred at the butt joint between the beam flange and the horizontal continuity plate. The size of the weld access hole beneath the butt joint should be minimized if possible to suppress the occurrence of flange local buckling around the butt joint. The factors affecting the size of C-shaped fillet weld and the beam shear eccentricity for the weld design were also examined through a case study and simple analytical modeling. The sectional factor governing the beam shear eccentricity was shown to be the plastic section modulus ratio of beam section at RBS center to the beam flanges at welded joint. The elastic method neglecting the ductile behavior of the C-shaped fillet weld group was shown to be too conservative and should not be used in design in order to minimize welding heat affection to the thin beam web as well. |
