AI Technical Summary
Traditional welding connections between pipes and plates are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to welding defects, affecting the stability of the welded components. They are rarely used, especially in concrete composite structures.
Friction welded pipes with connecting keys are used. The pipe body has through holes and is folded to form self-folding connecting keys, which increases the welding contact area and allows the inner and outer concrete to be connected during concrete pouring, thereby improving the bonding force and structural strength.
It improves welding strength and efficiency, enhances the stability and compressive and shear resistance of concrete composite structures, reduces welding defects, and saves materials.
