Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of civil engineering assembled building structures, and in particular to a self-resetting assembled UHPC frame beam-column node and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The key to prefabricated concrete frame structures lies in the reliable connection between prefabricated components. The connection nodes of prefabricated frames are important connection points and force transmission nodes between frame beams and frame columns. Once damaged, they will affect the stability of the overall structure. From the perspective of engineering practice, existing connection nodes have defects such as complex structure and force, poor integrity, and difficult to ensure construction quality. It is difficult to ensure that they are completely equivalent to cast-in-place frame structures, and the connection nodes are weak links in earthquake resistance. Under the action of rare or extremely rare earthquakes, damage and failure of the connection nodes may cause the overall collapse of the structure. Summary of the invention

[0008] Preferably, the non-bonded section of ordinary steel bars adopts a dimensionless parameter - non-bonded section ratio to control the design parameters. The non-bonded section ratio is the non-bonded section length / total length of ordinary steel bars. The non-bonded section ratio should be 0.2-0.4.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] A self-resetting assembled UHPC frame beam-column node, such as Figure 1-11 As shown, it includes a prefabricated frame beam component 1, a prefabricated frame column component 2, an ultra-high performance concrete 3 (UHPC), a self-resetting friction energy absorber 4, a pad 14, a pad 21, a connector 5 and a node plate 6. The prefabricated frame beam component 1 and the prefabricated frame column component 2 are connected by post-casting ultra-high performance concrete 3 at the node, the left side of the front side of the prefabricated frame beam component 1 is connected to the pad 14, the right side of the prefabricated frame column component 2 is connected to the pad 21, the pad 14 and the pad 21 are both connected to the node plate, and the self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 is arranged between the two node plates. The longitudinal stress-bearing steel bars of the prefabricated frame beam component 1 and the prefabricated frame column component 2 are connected by a connector 5. The longitudinal stress-bearing steel bars in the prefabricated frame beam component 1 include three sections: a high-strength steel bar section 11, a common steel bar non-bonded section 12 and a common steel bar bonded section 13, so as to achieve a damage control effect.

[0035] like Figure 8-Figure 11As shown, the connector 5 includes a locking ring 51 and a rubber connecting block 52. Each connector 5 is provided with two locking rings 51 and two rubber connecting blocks 52. The rubber connecting block 52 can be screwed into the high-strength steel bar section 11, the ordinary steel bar non-bonded section 12 and the ordinary steel bar bonded section 13 through threads. The two locking rings 51 can be mounted on two adjacent rubber connecting blocks 52 and locked with bolts to fix the rubber connecting blocks 52. The two adjacent rubber connecting blocks 52 are slidably connected to each other with a gap between them to allow the high-strength steel bar section 11, the ordinary steel bar non-bonded section 12 and the ordinary steel bar bonded section 13 to return to their original positions after being subjected to tension.

[0036] like Fig.10 As shown, one side of the rubber connecting block 52 is conical. When the rubber connecting block 52 is installed, the conical side is installed outward. The internal structure of the locking collar 51 is consistent with the structure of the rubber connecting block 52. When the high-strength steel bar section 11, the ordinary steel bar non-bonded section 12 and the ordinary steel bar bonded section 13 are subjected to tension, the rubber connecting block 52 is pulled to move. The conical setting makes the rubber connecting block 52 and the locking collar 51 tightened. The greater the tension, the tighter they are pulled.

[0037] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the steel bar strength grade used in the high-strength steel bar section 11 must be higher than that of the ordinary steel bar non-bonded section 12 and the ordinary steel bar bonded section 13. The high-strength steel bar section 11 is arranged near the node and extends into the prefabricated frame column component 2. The high-strength steel bar length ratio (i.e., high-strength steel bar length / frame column width) is used to control the design parameters, and the high-strength steel bar length ratio is 1.2-1.4.

[0038] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the non-bonded section 12 of the ordinary steel bar adopts a dimensionless parameter - non-bonded section ratio (i.e., non-bonded section length / total length of ordinary steel bar) to control the design parameters. The non-bonded section ratio reflects the degree of release of the steel bar-concrete interaction, and the non-bonded section ratio is 0.2-0.4.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 includes a self-resetting device 41 and a rotational friction damper 42. A set of self-resetting devices 41 and two sets of rotational friction dampers 42 are arranged between two node plates 6. The rotational friction damper 42 is connected to the node plate 6 in a hinged manner. When the frame beam-column node rotates relatively, the rotational friction damper 42 undergoes angular deformation and energy consumption, and the self-resetting device 41 undergoes axial deformation and has self-resetting capability. The self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 can dissipate part of the earthquake input energy and provide a certain self-resetting capability, significantly improving the seismic performance of the assembled concrete frame structure.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, the rotational friction damper 42 includes two connecting rods 421 and a friction damper 422. The two node plates 6 are hingedly connected with the connecting rods 421 on both sides. The connecting rods 421 on the two node plates 6 are hingedly connected to each other and the friction damper 422 is arranged at the hinge.

[0041] The self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 uses a dimensionless parameter - the energy absorber yield strength ratio (i.e., the yield bending moment of the self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 / the yield bending moment of the frame beam cross section) to control the design parameters. The energy absorber yield strength ratio reflects the relationship between the design yield strength of the self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 and the yield strength of the frame beam. The energy absorber yield strength ratio is 0.3-0.6.

[0042] This embodiment also provides a construction method for a self-resetting assembled UHPC frame beam-column node, comprising the following steps:

[0043] S1: manufacturing a prefabricated frame beam component 1, configuring the steel bars required for the prefabricated frame beam component 1, wherein the longitudinal force-bearing steel bars specifically include three sections of "high-strength steel bar section 11 + ordinary steel bar non-bonded section 12 + ordinary steel bar bonded section 13", each section is connected by a connector 5, a pad 14 for fixing the connecting plate is reserved at an appropriate position of the beam, and concrete is poured as a whole to form the prefabricated frame beam component 1;

[0044] S2: manufacturing a prefabricated frame column component 2, configuring the steel bars required for the prefabricated frame column component 2, reserving a pad 21 for fixing the connecting plate at an appropriate position of the column, and integrally pouring concrete to form the prefabricated frame column component 2;

[0045] S3: The longitudinal force-bearing steel bars of the upper and lower precast frame column components 2 are connected using connectors 5, and the beam-column node area is cast with ultra-high performance concrete 3;

[0046] S4: The node plate 6 is welded to the pad 1 14 and the pad 2 21 , and finally the self-resetting friction energy absorber 4 is installed, which specifically includes a set of self-resetting devices 41 and two sets of rotational friction dampers 42 , and each component is connected to the node plate 6 by hinged connection.

[0047] Although the present invention is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art through this disclosure that various changes or modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention defined by the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure is only used to explain, not to limit the present invention, but the scope of protection is limited by the content of the claims.
