[0053] A splicing method for a steel frame - cold - formed thin - walled steel shear wall: The steel frame is connected by end - plate connection joints with high - strength bolts among 2 frame columns and 1 frame beam. The frame columns are located at both ends of the frame beam, and the end plates are located above the column flanges. The cold - formed thin - walled steel keel is formed by connecting 7 vertical columns, 2 rigid cross - braces, upper and lower guide rails, and 18 rigid diagonal braces through self - tapping bolt - nut assemblies. 7 vertical columns are placed at equal distances along the length direction of the wall, and the side vertical columns are connected to the column flanges through self - tapping screws. The rigid cross - braces are arranged at equal distances along the height direction of the wall. Openings are provided at the positions where the cross - brace webs pass through the vertical columns to allow the vertical columns to pass through the whole length. The upper guide rail is connected to the beam flange through a self - tapping screw assembly, and the lower guide rail is connected to the vertical column through a self - tapping bolt - nut assembly. The rigid diagonal braces are arranged in each grid formed by the vertical columns, upper and lower guide rails, and rigid cross - braces. The connections between the rigid diagonal braces and the vertical columns and rigid cross - braces are made by using gusset plates through self - tapping bolt - nut assemblies. The method includes the following steps:
[0054] Step 10: First, horizontally place the frame columns, and use bolts to connect the column flanges welded with end plates to the beam ends to form a portal structure. Stiffeners can be set in the joint area, and holes are opened at the corresponding positions of the column flanges and beam flanges for facilitating later connection with the cold - formed thin - walled steel keel.
[0055] Step 20: Cut and process the cold - formed thin - walled steel keel with corresponding dimensions in the factory for connection; circular holes are opened at the corresponding positions of the side vertical columns of the light steel keel for facilitating later connection with the steel frame.
[0056] Step 30: Install the cold - formed thin - walled steel keel inside the steel frame and fix it with self - tapping bolt - nut assemblies. The arrangement positions of the self - tapping bolt - nut assemblies correspond to the opening positions of the steel frame.
[0057] Step 40: Weld the fixed end of the keel node reinforcement device to the cold - formed thin - walled steel channel by welding, and connect the main pipe body and the rotary - shaft type articulated locator through the rotating threaded rod. After fixation, an integral body is formed.
[0058] In the embodiment of the present invention, the stiffeners are strip - shaped strengthening members arranged in pairs on both sides of the web of the frame column.
[0059] In the embodiment of the present invention, when opening holes in the steel frame, threads are required inside the holes, which can enable the self - tapping bolt - nut to better connect the steel frame and the cold - formed thin - walled steel keel.
[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, the limit bolts need to be screwed in from both sides simultaneously.
[0061] The frame columns of the present invention need to be paired with stiffeners on both sides of the web to improve the overall stiffness of the joints; a gusset plate is welded to the flange of the frame column at the connection with the beam section to improve the bearing capacity of the joints. The keel joint reinforcement device needs to be arranged at each joint of the cold-formed thin-walled steel keel grid. When the wall is subjected to reciprocating tensile and compressive forces under earthquake action, it can enhance the lateral stiffness, bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity of the wall. Compared with self-tapping screws, the self-tapping bolt and nut assembly can effectively reduce the repeated extrusion of the screws at the connection under low-cycle reversed loading, the continuous expansion of the screw holes, resulting in cumulative damage to the screws, and finally shear failure. The advantages of the present invention are:
[0062] 1. The cold-formed thin-walled steel keel joints are provided with strengthening members, which can improve the shear bearing capacity of the wall and have stronger lateral stiffness.
[0063] 2. The keel joint reinforcement device adopts a rotary hinge assembly method, which is convenient to install and has a wide range of applicable scenarios.
[0064] 3. The components of the keel joint reinforcement device are connected by threaded rods. The threaded rods can be replaced with threaded rods of corresponding lengths according to different usage scenarios to meet the usage requirements.
[0065] 4. The self-tapping bolt and nut assembly is provided with a flat blade groove and a cross blade groove, which reduces the limitation on installation tools and improves work efficiency.
[0066] 5. The self-tapping bolt and nut assembly can slightly expand the self-drilled hole by using a gradually increasing transition rod section, so that the main rod section with external threads can be squeezed into the self-drilled hole and the corresponding internal threads can be screwed out. There is no need to pre-process a preset hole on the part to be fixed before installation, and the installation is more convenient.
[0067] The shear bearing capacity of the reinforced diagonal brace joints of the present invention is improved, and the lateral stiffness of the cold-formed thin-walled steel keel structure is increased. There is a significant coupling effect between the steel frame and the cold-formed thin-walled steel shear wall filled inside, which optimizes the structural force, improves the integrity of the wall, and forms a new type of steel frame-shear wall structure. Anti-pulling parts are arranged at the bottom of the wall. The lower end of the anti-pulling part is locked with the lower guide rail by 2 self-tapping bolt and nut assemblies, and the upper end is connected with the column web by 6 self-tapping bolt and nut assemblies.
[0068] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention in other forms. Any person skilled in the art may use the disclosed technical content to make changes or modifications into equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution content of the present invention still belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
