Abstract

Semirigid connections of beam-column using high tension bolts and angles were tested under a constant axial force and a repeated horizontal force, and the hysteretic behaviour of the connection is investigated. The restoring force characteristics of the connection is also formulated and the is compared with test results. Test results show that hysteretic behaviour of the connections of beam-column is considerably stable in the large range of deformation, and is traced well by the proposed formulae.
