Abstract
This study conducted a static tensile test in order to prevent the lowering of load carrying capacity caused by critical sections made by over bolt holes in the base plate and the cover plate of steel member joints using high-tension bolts. The change of the load carrying capacity of joints was examined by comparison of the maximum load on joint fracture obtained from the tensile test with critical section rate and design strength. According to the results, the rate of decrease in strength was higher when the critical section rate was high, and in particular, decrease in strength was affected much more by critical sections in the base plate than by those in the cover plate. In high-tension bolt joints using over bolt holes for the base plate and the cover plate, load carrying performance was somewhat lower than that in joints using standard bolt holes, but the maximum tensile strength on facture was over 15% higher than design fracture strength. According to the results of this study, the use of over bolt holes in high-tension bolt joints had an insignificant effect on the lowering of load carrying capacity, so the allowance of over bolt holes in the joints of steel members is expected to enhance to the economy and efficiency of the works.
