Finite element modelling of semi-rigid composite joints with precast hollowcore slabsLam, Dennis, Fu, F., Ye, J. January 2006 (has links)
No / This paper described the finite element modelling of the semi-rigid composite beam-column joints with the composite steel beams and precast hollowcore slabs which can accurately simulate the moment-rotation response of the connections. Using the general purpose finite element software ABAQUS, a three dimensional model of the composite joint is set up. The techniques of simulating the bolt force, the endplate, the concrete elements, the reinforcement, the shear connectors and the interaction between the slabs and the steel beams are discussed. The results are presented and compared with the experimental data and good agreement is obtained. Parametric studies using the developed model will be performed to gain better understanding of this form of composite joints.

Lateral Loading of Small-Scale Shear Wall Buildings with Floor SlabsSpeirs, John W. 03 1900 (has links)
<p> This thesis describes the construction and testing of small-scale shear wall buildings with rigidly connected floor slabs, but without wall openings. A micro-concrete material was used in the casting of both the basic small-scale shear wall buildings and the floor slabs. The vertically cantilevered buildings were tested by applying a transverse static load at the top of the buildings.</p> <p> The behaviour of buildings with only floor slabs was compared with that of buildings containing only wall openings. The results of static loading of the buildings were compared with those results predicted analytically using Vlasov's thin-walled elastic beam theory.</p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)

Behaviour of composite steel beams with precast hollow core slabs in hogging moment regionsLam, Dennis, Fu, F. January 2005 (has links)
No / The chapter discusses the behavior of composite steel beams with precast hollow core slabs in hogging moment regions. Full-scale composite beams to column semi-rigid connections with precast hollow core slabs are tested in the chapter. The chapter presents a steelwork connection consists of a flush end plate bolted to column flanges. The main variables studied are shear stud's spacing and degree of shear connection. Comprehensive instrumentations are used for all the tests, based on the experimental data, and equations to predict the rotation and the moment capacity for this type of composite connection are proposed in the chapter. A precast composite hollow core floor is a newly developed composite system for building that use precast hollow core slabs as the structural flooring. However, research on composite construction incorporating steel beams with precast hollow core slabs is still relatively new in comparison to the more traditional composite metal deck flooring.

Analytical model of semi-rigid composite joints with steel beams and precast hollowcore slabsLam, Dennis, Ye, J., Fu, F. January 2007 (has links)
No / Composite construction incorporating steel beams and precast hollowcore slabs is a recently developed composite floor system for building construction. As the construction industry demands for rapid construction with reduction in cost and environmental impacts, this form of composite construction, which does not require major onsite concreting, has become very popular among the designers and engineers in the UK. This form of composite construction is so far limited to simple beam-column connections. A semi-rigid composite joint is developed which can provide sufficient moment and rotation capacity required for plastic analysis in composite beams design. An analytical model for the semi-rigid composite connection is proposed and is verified with the experimental data and good agreement is obtained.

New Test for Shear Connectors in Composite Construction.Lam, Dennis January 2000 (has links)
no / Composite beams formed by connecting the concrete slabs to the supporting steel beams have been in use for many years. Much of the research into this form of construction has concentrated on the more traditional reinforced concrete and metal deck construction. In composite beam design, the strength of the shear connector is of great importance since longitudinal shear forces must be transferred across the steel-concrete interface by the mechanical action of shear connectors. The shear strength and stiffness of the connection is not only dependent on the strength of the connector itself, but also on the resistance of the concrete slab to longitudinal cracking caused by the high concentration of shear force at each connector. Present knowledge of this behaviour is limited to shear connectors in solid reinforced concrete slabs and concrete slabs with profiled sheeting, little information is given for the shear connector capacity on composite steel beam with precast hollow core slabs. A new horizontal push off test is proposed to determine the shear capacity of the connector on the composite beams with precast concrete hollow cored floor slabs. The results showed the new test is compatible with all type of floor and shear connectors, and can replace the existing vertical push off tests.

Composite Steel Beams with Precast Hollow Core Slabs: Behaviour and DesignLam, Dennis January 2002 (has links)
This article reviews the design and behaviour of composite beams with precast hollow core slabs in multi-storey buildings for gravity loading. A brief history of composite construction and introduction to precast¿composite construction is given, followed by an overview of recent research work on various factors affecting the design. This includes the push-off test procedure, the load¿slip characteristic of the headed shear studs and the design procedures for this type of construction. Finite element modelling of the headed stud shear connectors and the composite beams with precast hollow core slabs are presented. Finally, recommendations and future research work is also suggested.
