Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of prefabricated buildings, and more particularly to an on-site welding-free fully prefabricated concrete frame. Background Art

[0002] Prefabricated buildings refer to buildings constructed by prefabricating building components and accessories in a factory, transporting them to the construction site, and then assembling them through reliable connections. In recent years, with the rapid development of building industrialization, prefabricated concrete frames have been widely used in engineering construction due to their advantages such as fast construction speed, low environmental pollution, and controllable quality. However, the connection technology of on-site nodes has always been a key problem that has hindered the further development of prefabricated concrete frames, which is specifically reflected in the following two aspects:

[0003] On the one hand, traditional prefabricated frames typically rely on on-site welding for joint connections. This method not only increases construction complexity and places high demands on welding techniques and operator skills, but also is susceptible to environmental influences, resulting in low construction efficiency and high quality fluctuations. This makes it difficult to meet the stringent requirements for structural ductility and energy dissipation in high-intensity earthquake zones.

[0004] On the other hand, the positioning accuracy of steel bars at joints is difficult to guarantee. Prefabricated components are prone to deviation during transportation and hoisting, leading to misalignment of steel bars during on-site assembly. This can lead to connection difficulties, assembly failures, or low efficiency, seriously impacting construction progress and structural reliability.

[0005] Therefore, how to effectively avoid on-site welding operations, improve steel bar positioning accuracy, simplify construction processes, and improve construction efficiency while ensuring structural safety and seismic performance has become a core technical issue that needs to be urgently addressed in the current prefabricated building field. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides an on-site welding-free fully assembled concrete frame, aiming to solve the above technical problems.

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] An on-site welding-free fully assembled concrete frame comprises: a prefabricated upper column and a prefabricated lower column; the prefabricated upper column and the prefabricated lower column are connected by a steel joint;

[0009] The steel joint is composed of a top plate, a bottom plate and a surrounding plate. There are multiple surrounding plates, and the multiple surrounding plates are enclosed and fixed between the top plate and the bottom plate; the top plate is provided with a reserved hole corresponding to the space enclosed by the surrounding plates, so that concrete can be poured into the space area enclosed by the surrounding plates during prefabrication; the column longitudinal reinforcements of the prefabricated upper column and the prefabricated lower column pass through the steel joint holes on the edges of the top plate and the bottom plate respectively, and are fastened with bolts, so that the prefabricated upper column is connected and fixed to the top plate of the steel joint, and the prefabricated lower column is connected and fixed to the bottom plate of the steel joint, and the column longitudinal reinforcement is located on the outside of the surrounding plate.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the present invention provides an on-site welding-free fully assembled concrete frame, which connects the prefabricated upper column and the prefabricated lower column through steel joints. There is no need for on-site welding, which reduces the complexity of construction, reduces the dependence on welding technology and the technical level of operators, improves construction efficiency and quality stability, and is particularly suitable for high-intensity earthquake zones to meet the requirements of structural ductility and energy consumption capacity. A reserved hole is provided in the top plate of the steel joint, allowing concrete to be filled in the space area enclosed by the enclosure during prefabrication, thereby enhancing the connection strength and integrity of the node. The column longitudinal reinforcement passes through the holes in the steel joint and is fastened with bolts to ensure a reliable connection between the prefabricated upper column and the prefabricated lower column. At the same time, the column longitudinal reinforcement is located on the outside of the enclosure to avoid direct contact between the steel bar and the steel joint, reducing the risk of steel bar corrosion and extending the service life of the structure.

[0011] Preferably, in the above-mentioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, shear pins are welded and fixed to the bottom surface of the base plate. This effectively improves the shear resistance of the joints, enhances the bearing capacity of the structure under horizontal loads, and further ensures the safety and stability of the building.

[0012] Preferably, in the above-mentioned on-site welding-free fully assembled concrete frame, during factory prefabrication, the top plate of the steel joint is pre-connected to the prefabricated upper column, and the prefabricated lower column is positioned with its column longitudinal reinforcement by a reinforcement positioning fixture, so that the column longitudinal reinforcement of the prefabricated lower column can correspond to the steel joint holes on the bottom plate of the steel joint during subsequent installation. This ensures that the column longitudinal reinforcement of the prefabricated lower column can accurately correspond to the steel joint holes on the bottom plate of the steel joint during subsequent installation, improves construction accuracy and efficiency, reduces the risk of steel bar misalignment during on-site assembly, avoids connection difficulties, assembly failures or low efficiency caused by deviations, and ensures construction progress and structural reliability.

[0013] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, the steel bar positioning fixtures are provided with pre-reserved holes corresponding to the steel joint holes. The longitudinal bars of the prefabricated lower columns are positioned using the steel bar positioning fixtures before the reinforcement of the prefabricated beams is tied. The steel bar positioning fixtures are removed and reused when the prefabricated upper columns are installed. This further improves the accuracy of steel bar positioning. The steel bar positioning fixtures can be removed and reused when the prefabricated upper columns are installed, reducing construction costs and waste generation at the construction site, thus complying with environmental protection requirements.

[0014] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, the top plate, bottom plate, and enclosure plates are all made of steel plates and are welded together. This ensures high strength and rigidity of the steel joints, enabling them to withstand large loads and deformations, guaranteeing the connection performance of the nodes and the overall stability of the structure. Furthermore, the use of steel plates facilitates processing and installation, further improving construction efficiency.

[0015] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, the floor panels are fixedly connected between the precast beams during floor assembly. This forms a unified floor structure, enhancing the floor's rigidity and load-bearing capacity, improving the building's integrity and stability, and facilitating resistance to horizontal loads and earthquakes.

[0016] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free, fully assembled concrete frame, steel members are embedded in the precast beams, and the floor panels are provided with panel holes corresponding to the steel members, through which the steel members pass. This connection method is simple and fast, eliminating the need for complex construction procedures, improving the efficiency and quality of floor assembly, while ensuring a reliable connection between the floor panels and precast beams and enhancing the integrity of the floor structure.

[0017] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free, fully assembled concrete frame, the outer diameter of the steel member is smaller than the aperture of the panel hole, and high-strength concrete mortar is poured into the gap between the panel hole and the steel member. This ensures a tight connection between the steel member and the floor panel, while also improving the strength and durability of the connection. The filling effect of the high-strength concrete mortar further enhances the integrity and shear resistance of the floor structure.

[0018] Preferably, in the aforementioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, the height of the steel member exposed from the precast beams is equal to the thickness of the floor panel. This makes the connection between the floor panel and the precast beams smoother and tighter, avoids stress concentration caused by height differences, improves the load-bearing capacity and durability of the floor structure, and facilitates the installation and construction of the floor panel.

[0019] Preferably, in the above-mentioned on-site weld-free fully assembled concrete frame, stiffening plates are fixed to the enclosures, further enhancing the strength and rigidity of the steel joints, improving the bearing capacity and deformation resistance of the nodes, ensuring the stability and reliability of the nodes when bearing large loads, and extending the service life of the structure.

[0020] It can be seen from the above technical solution that, compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an on-site welding-free fully assembled concrete frame, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. Improved construction efficiency: This eliminates on-site welding, reduces construction complexity and reliance on welding processes, and shortens construction time. The use of rebar positioning fixtures improves rebar positioning accuracy, reduces assembly failures due to deviations, and ensures construction progress. Steel joints are pre-connected to prefabricated upper columns during factory prefabrication, reducing on-site workload and improving construction efficiency.

[0022] 2. Enhanced structural safety and seismic performance: The steel joint structure consists of a top plate, bottom plate, and enclosure panels. Column longitudinal reinforcement is bolted to the steel joint, enhancing the joint's connection strength and integrity. The installation of shear pins improves the joint's shear resistance, enabling it to better withstand horizontal loads and seismic forces. Precast beams and floor panels are connected via steel components and high-strength concrete mortar, enhancing the floor's rigidity and stability.

[0023] 3. Improved construction quality: Factory-fabricated steel joints and rebar positioning fixtures ensure high precision in prefabricated components, reducing errors and quality fluctuations during on-site construction. The simple and quick connection method between prefabricated beams and floor panels reduces construction uncertainty and ensures connection reliability.

[0024] 4. Extending the service life of the structure: The longitudinal reinforcement of the columns is located outside the enclosure, avoiding direct contact between the steel bars and the steel joints, reducing the risk of steel corrosion. High-strength concrete mortar is used to fill gaps, improving the durability of the joints.

[0025] 5. Energy saving and environmental protection: The rebar positioning fixtures can be used in a revolving manner, reducing material waste during construction. Factory prefabrication reduces pollution caused by on-site welding and meets environmental protection requirements.

[0026] 6. Optimize the construction process: The overall prefabricated construction method simplifies the construction process, reduces construction steps and reduces the difficulty of on-site operations. The standardized production of prefabricated components improves the standardization and consistency of construction.

[0027] 7. Strong adaptability: This invention is applicable to a variety of construction scenarios, especially in high-intensity earthquake zones, and can meet the stringent requirements for structural ductility and energy dissipation. The stiffening plate design of the steel joints further enhances the structure's load-bearing capacity and adaptability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
