Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of strengthening of beam-column joints with end-plate connections in existing steel structures, and particularly relates to a strengthening structure for end-plate connection joints and a construction method thereof. Background Technique

[0002] In recent years, the scale and quantity of steel structures have been increasing year by year. Connection joints play a very important role in steel structures, and their characteristics are crucial for the integrity, load transfer, and seismic energy dissipation of the structure. Compared with traditional steel structure connection joints, end-plate joints that use friction-type high-strength bolts and connecting plates to connect beams and columns or splice beams together have the advantages of simple structure, convenient construction, high load-bearing performance, and strong energy dissipation performance. Therefore, end-plate connections have become the most widely used joint forms in portal frames and multi-story steel frames. During the construction process, due to factors such as improper construction and the action of the corrosion environment during service, the load-bearing performance of end-plate connection joints in existing steel structures does not meet the usage requirements or the appraisal evaluation standards, posing a serious threat to the safety of the overall structure. To solve the actual problems existing in the use of connection joints, it is necessary to strengthen their joints to improve the stiffness and bearing capacity of the joints and enhance the integrity, seismic performance, and reliability of the structure.

[0003] As shown in the Figure 1-2 accompanying figure, the existing strengthening methods for end-plate connection joints mainly adopt side fillet weld strengthening and full-around weld strengthening. By welding the end-plate and the flange of the original structural member, a connection joint is formed that uses both friction-type high-strength bolt connection and fillet weld connection at the same joint. However, there are many problems with the above methods. Among them, due to the large difference in stiffness between the two connection forms, the load transfer and distribution rules are complex. In addition, when strengthening the joint by using bolt-weld connection, the code clearly requires that the construction sequence should be to tighten the high-strength bolts first and then perform welding.

[0004] However, the friction-type high-strength bolts of end-plate connection joints in existing steel structures are affected by many factors, and the pre-tightening force often has a large loss. The change in the pre-tightening force causes uneven stress on the joint, resulting in phenomena such as relaxation, fracture, and detachment of the high-strength bolts of the connection joint. Although the above problems can be solved by replacing the high-strength bolts to achieve secondary tightening between the flange of the member and the end-plate, and then welding the end-plate by using fillet welds, replacing the high-strength bolts requires supporting and unloading the original structural connection joint. Since there are mostly equipment under the structural beam and the connection joint position is generally high, it not only affects normal production and life, but also has problems such as large construction difficulty and poor economy.

[0005] Meanwhile, existing strengthening methods have certain limitations in engineering applications. In view of problems such as large installation errors during construction, resulting in misalignment between connecting plate members, bolt hole misalignment, bolt missing, and electric welding hole enlargement, etc., this type of joint can no longer achieve secondary fastening between the connecting plate members of the original structure joint by replacing high-strength bolts; especially for joints with too large connecting plate gaps caused by improper construction, or joints with too large gaps caused by relative deformation between connecting plate members due to the failure of high-strength bolt fastening during use, not only can the fastening of high-strength bolts not be achieved for this type of joint, but also the welding between connecting plate members is very difficult to achieve.

[0006] In summary, for the end plate connection joints in existing steel structures, it is urgent to propose a strengthening method with clear force transmission, convenient construction, wide applicability, economy and high efficiency to effectively solve the above defects existing in existing strengthening methods.

The anticorrosion / fireproof coatings shall not be lower than the requirements of the design standard, and it is ensured that the interface between the newly applied coating and the old coating on the surface of the existing end plate connection node is well combined.

[0049] The end - plate connection joint reinforcement structure and its construction method of the present invention can supplement and reinforce the existing steel - structure end - plate connection joints. The reinforcement structure of the present invention aims at the end - plate connection beam - column joints where it is impossible to achieve secondary fastening between the joint connection plates by replacing high - strength bolts, especially for the joints with too large gaps between the connection plates caused by improper construction, or for the end - plate connection beam - column joints with too large gaps caused by relative deformation between the connection plates due to the failure of high - strength bolt fastening during use. It provides a reinforcement method that does not affect normal production and life, does not occupy extra space, and does not change the functional characteristics of the structure under the action of load in the existing structure. The present invention realizes the effective transfer of axial force, shear force and bending moment of the joint by adding H - shaped steel members, stiffening rib plates and connecting lacing plates and welding them to the existing structure beam - column, effectively improving the bearing capacity and seismic performance of the existing steel - structure end - plate connection joints.

[0050] The present invention also provides a construction method for the end - plate connection joint reinforcement structure, which includes the following steps:

[0051] Install the H - shaped steel member 6 on both sides of the existing structure column 1 and tightly abut the top of the H - shaped steel member 6 against the bottom of the existing structure beam 2; respectively arrange stiffening rib plates 7 on both sides of the existing structure beam 2; use the connecting lacing plate 8 to fixedly connect the H - shaped steel member 6 and the stiffening rib plate 7 together.

[0052] The specific construction process is as follows:

[0053] Step 1: Use friction - type high - strength bolts 5 to tightly connect the first joint connection plate 3 at the lower flange of the existing structure beam 2 and the second joint connection plate 4 at the top of the existing structure column 1 to form an existing end - plate connection joint; measure the size of the existing end - plate connection joint and lay out the lines. Combine the actual situation of on - site construction to determine the size of the H - shaped steel member 6; use manual or mechanical grinding methods to remove the original anti - corrosion / anti - fire coating at the existing end - plate connection joint, that is, remove the original anti - corrosion / anti - fire coating in the welding part and its surrounding area, so that the metal luster of the steel surface is exposed, providing conditions for the welding of the reinforcement structure and the existing structure members; place the web of the H - shaped steel member 6 perpendicular to the web of the existing structure beam 2, and make the upper end of the H - shaped steel member 6 be planed and tightly abutted against the bottom of the lower flange of the existing structure beam 2, and use fillet welds to weld the flange of the H - shaped steel member 6 and the existing structure column 1; connect the existing structure column 1 and the existing structure beam 2 together through the H - shaped steel member 6 to realize the transfer of vertical load between them.

[0054] Step 2: Stiffening plates 7 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the web of the existing structural beam 2. The stiffening plates 7 are arranged facing the web of the H-shaped steel member 6 and are perpendicular to the web of the existing structural beam 2. The upper end, lower end and side of the stiffening plate 7 are welded and fixed to the upper flange, lower flange and web of the existing structural beam 2 respectively by fillet welds. The height of the stiffening plate 7 is determined according to the measured height of the web of the existing structural beam 2 at the on-site connection position. The width of the stiffening plate 7 extends to the edges of the upper and lower flanges of the existing structural beam 2. Preferably, the extended width is 60 - 100 mm. In order to avoid stress concentration caused by intersecting welds, the side of the stiffening plate 7 close to the web of the existing structural beam 2 is chamfered and an access hole for welding is left. By setting the stiffening plate, the local bearing problem when the existing structural beam transfers the vertical load to the web of the H-shaped steel member is solved. By extending the stiffening plate to the upper and lower flanges of the existing structural beam, conditions are provided for connecting the existing structural beam and the H-shaped steel member through connecting batten plates.

[0055] Step 3: Grooves are cut at the upper end of the connecting batten plate according to the height and thickness of the stiffening plate. During on-site construction, they are vertically and cross-installed and temporarily fixed. The stiffening plate and the connecting batten plate are welded and fixed together by fillet welds, and both ends of the connecting batten plate are welded and fixed to the flanges of the H-shaped steel member by fillet welds.

[0056] Step 4: External pipe quality inspection and internal flaw detection are carried out on all the fillet welds above. After meeting the requirements of the corresponding specifications and technical standards, anti-corrosion / fireproof coating is applied to the surfaces of the existing end plate connection nodes, H-shaped steel members 6, stiffening plates 7 and connecting batten plates 8. The coating requirements shall not be lower than the original design standard, and reliable technical measures shall be taken to ensure good bonding at the interface between the new and old coatings. After completion, it can be put into use.

[0057] The end plate connection joint reinforcement structure of the present invention adds H-shaped steel members, stiffening rib plates and connecting batten plates at the existing end plate connection joint, detects the welding quality after construction is completed, and sets anti-corrosion / fire-proof coating; among them, H-shaped steel members 6 are added on both sides of the top of the existing structural column, the web of the H-shaped steel member 6 is perpendicular to the web of the existing structural beam 2, and is flush with the lower flange of the existing structural beam 2; the two flanges of the H-shaped steel member 6 are fixed by fillet welding with the flanges of the existing structural column 1; stiffening rib plates 7 are added on both sides of the web of the existing structural beam 2, the stiffening rib plates 7 are located above the H-shaped steel member 6 and are arranged opposite to the web of the H-shaped steel member 6; the stiffening rib plates 7 are fixed by fillet welding with the upper flange, lower flange and web of the existing structural beam 2; a rib plate slot is provided at the center of the upper end of the connecting batten plate 8, and the connecting batten plate 8 is vertically inserted on the stiffening rib plate 7 through the rib plate slot; the connecting batten plate 8 is fixed by fillet welding with the stiffening rib plate 7 and the flanges of the H-shaped steel member 6; after ensuring that the welding quality meets the requirements of corresponding specifications and technical standards, anti-corrosion and fire-proof coatings are applied, and it can be put into use after completion.

[0058] In the existing end plate connection joint, the high-strength bolts on both sides of the joint connecting plate bear the bending moment, and the high-strength bolts near the center of the joint connecting plate mainly bear the shear force; when there is a bending moment, in the existing end plate connection joint, taking the center distance between the first row of high-strength bolts on both sides as the moment arm and the center of the joint connecting plate as the neutral axis, the bending moment of the existing end plate connection joint is converted into a pair of force couples of the first and second rows of high-strength bolts on both sides of the existing structural column in the plane; in the present invention, by setting the connecting batten plate, stiffening rib plate and H-shaped steel member, the existing structural beam and the existing structural column are effectively tied together outside the existing end plate connection joint; by setting the connecting batten plate, the lateral shear area of the connecting batten plate is used to replace the high-strength bolts in the existing end plate connection joint to bear the shear force of the entire joint; according to the reinforcement structure described in the present invention, after the existing end plate connection joint is reinforced, since in the plane of the steel structure, the center distance of the connecting batten plates arranged on the same side is greater than the center distance between the first row of high-strength bolts on both sides of the existing end plate connection joint, therefore, the connecting batten plates of the reinforced joint give priority to bearing the bending moment and directly distribute and transfer the joint bending moment to the existing structural beam and column members, not only replacing the bending moment transfer at the existing joint connection; at the same time, the rotational stiffness of the existing end plate connection joint is increased.

[0059] The above embodiments are only one of the implementation manners capable of realizing the technical solution of the present invention. The scope of protection required by the present invention is not only limited by this embodiment, but also includes any changes, substitutions and other implementation manners that are easily conceivable by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention.
