Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of shock-absorbing steel structure connecting pieces, in particular to a frame structure with replaceable beam end metal dampers. Background Art

[0002] Traditional buildings mainly rely on the deformation of the structure itself to absorb earthquake energy, and many main components are difficult to repair after being damaged. With the continuous advancement of earthquake-resistant theories, technologies, and methods, as well as the development and application of more high-performance materials, people have higher and higher requirements for the earthquake resistance of structures. Structural earthquake resistance has gradually shifted from anti-collapse design to recoverable function design, in order to minimize the losses of the entire society after the earthquake.

[0003] Among the methods of realizing recoverable functional structures, the most feasible one at present is the replaceable structure. Replaceable structural components are set in the structure. During a strong earthquake, the damage to the structure is mainly concentrated on the replaceable components. Not only can they be used to effectively dissipate the energy input into the structure by the earthquake, but also it is conducive to the rapid replacement of damaged replaceable components after the earthquake, so as to restore the normal use function of the structure as soon as possible.

[0004] The beam-column joint is an important part of the frame system. The beam-column joint is subjected to complex forces, and its function is to transfer shear force and bending moment between beams and columns. Therefore, under the action of earthquakes, the beam-column joint is severely damaged, and even the entire frame structure collapses, and the post-earthquake repair work is difficult. Therefore, it is very necessary to propose and study the seismic measures of the frame structure. In order to reduce the brittle failure of the beam-column joint of the frame structure under the action of earthquakes, and to ensure that the frame structure can still maintain good ductility after the earthquake to achieve the effect of dissipating earthquake energy, the general method is to add dampers at the beam-column joints to enhance their seismic performance.

[0005] Publication No. CN207296055U discloses a non-buckling corrugated structure energy-absorbing component, which fully utilizes the advantage of the large out-of-plane stiffness of the corrugated structure and has a certain versatility. It can be widely used in steel plate shear walls, shear dampers, connecting beam dampers or other forms of metal shock-absorbing components made of metal materials such as steel, aluminum, and lead. However, it does not describe the application structure of the corrugated structure energy-absorbing component in engineering.

The structure is relatively complex, and bolt structures are often used for connection to achieve the combination of the overall structure, but the combination between the beams and columns has the problem of insufficient strength due to too many bolt connections.
