Abstract

The invention discloses a calculation method of ultimate moment resistance and moment-rotation relation for steel beam to concrete-filled steel tube column connections with bidirectional bolts, wherein the calculation method as follows: calculate ultimate moment resistance values of the connection for different failure modes, i.e. yielding of the endplate or T-stub in bending, failure of bolts in tension, failure of column in transverse compression, failure of panel zone in shear, and yielding of the steel beam in bending; the smallest one in the five ultimate moment resistance values is taken as the ultimate moment resistance of the connection; obtain the initial rotational stiffness of the connection by the test, simulation or theoretical calculation; then, the moment-rotation curve of the connection is obtained by substituting the initial rotational stiffness and the ultimate moment resistance into the proposed exponential model for the moment-rotation relation.
