Abstract
In this paper, new vertical interlocking method using high tension bolts is proposed for laying steel frame unit systems of container standard size. In this method, the location of tightening bolts is characteristic. The position is located inside of a beam from the column beam connection. Therefore the ultimate strength for the earthquake is decided by the plastic deformation of the beam without the fracture of the bolt. This performance is proved by full scale tests and numerical analyses.
