Abstract

The existing research on flange focused on bearing capacity, and there were few reports on the rigidity of flange. In this paper, rigidity test was carried on for the connection of rigid flange and flexible flange in power-transformed frames. According to the test results, the axial rigidity, shear rigidity and flexural rigidity was compared. The results indicated that the axial rigidity, shear rigidity and flexural rigidity of flexible flange connection was lower than those of rigid flange connection for both the plain bolt and high strength bolt.
