Over the last few decades aluminium alloys have been increasingly used in the construction
sector due to their favourable properties. Thereafter, many research projects have been …

Aluminium alloys are gaining increasing use in the construction industry, underpinned by
extensive research and the growing availability of codified structural design rules at room …

This paper presents an experimental study on high-strength Q460 steel extended end-plate
connections at ambient and elevated temperatures. Ambient temperature tests were …

A comprehensive experimental study on structural behaviour of stainless steel bolted T-stub
connections is presented in this paper. A total of 27 stainless steel bolted T-stubs with …

Failure modes and their corresponding tension strengths of thread-fixed one-side bolted T-
stub were investigated experimentally and theoretically. The thread resistances of bolts fixed …

Building upon a previous investigation, this study reports a total of 13 experimental tests on
austenitic and duplex stainless steel T-stubs subject to monotonic loading. The structural …

In this paper, a new steel yielding damper in the beam-to-column connections relying on the
combination of slit damper and T-stub called T-SSD is proposed, with an aim to increase …

This paper presents the hysteretic behavior of aluminum alloy gusset (AAG) joints by means
of experimental study. Eight AAG joint specimens are tested under cyclic load. Initially, the …

This article describes the experimental studies of a preloaded asymmetric multi-bolted
connection in the exploitation state. The construction of two stands were introduced: for bolt …

This study numerically investigates dynamic response of welded beam-column joint with
different weld imperfections at weld root. The imperfections at weld root, such as incomplete …
