Abstract

This study aims to develop a procedure for predicting the static resistances of non-welded, laser-made T rectangular hollow section (RHS) joints, and estimations are provided, using the well-known beam-column I section joints component method for the first time. The results of theoretical and experimental studies on 11 such joints, created as one- or two-sided joints, undertaken by the author and others are described. Comparison are drawn between the theoretical and experimental results, and remarks regarding similar types of one-sided welded T RHS joints are provided. Finally, to summarise this stage of the research, conclusions are presented. The stiffness of the studied joints was not considered.
