- Abstract
Based on the idea of damage control, this article studied a new type of earthquake-resilient prefabricated sinusoidal corrugated web beam-column joints. First, the constitution and advantages of prefabricated sinusoidal corrugated web beam-column joints were introduced. Then, finite element models are developed based on the design theory, and the hysteretic behaviour of prefabricated sinusoidal corrugated web beam-column joints was investigated using the finite element method considering the effects of parameters such as the weakened form, thickness and unbolted length of the flange cover plate, the bolt hole form and the gap between the beams. Finally, cyclic loading test and repairing test were conducted on a basic specimen, and the rationality of the numerical analyses and the design theory were verified. It indicates that a properly designed prefabricated sinusoidal corrugated web beam-column joint has good bearing capacity and hysteretic behaviour with earthquake resilience. The thickness and unbolted length of the flange cover plate, the bolt hole form and the gap between the beams have significant effects on the seismic behaviour of the joint.
