Abstract

This utility model discloses a connection node between a concrete beam and an inclined column. A square column cap encloses the inclined column node area, providing ample anchorage space for the beam's longitudinal reinforcement and ensuring reliable force transfer to the inclined column. The use of a cubic column cap instead of the traditional cylindrical structure significantly simplifies formwork erection. An innovative method uses U-shaped and L-shaped steel bars lapped together to form vertical closed stirrups, significantly reducing the difficulty of steel bar processing and tying, and avoiding the construction defects of integrally bent stirrups. The beam's longitudinal reinforcement is arranged differently according to the connection direction: for multi-beam connections, continuous reinforcement is used for continuous force transfer; for single-sided beam connections, it is extended and bent for anchorage, optimizing the reinforcement density in the node area. The recessed design at the bottom of the square column cap provides space for concrete vibration, ensuring the compactness of the pour. This node balances structural reliability and construction convenience, effectively solving the problem of non-orthogonal beam-column connections.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building structure technology, specifically to a connection node structure between a concrete beam and an inclined column, which is particularly suitable for beam-column nodes that are not orthogonally arranged. Background Technology

[0002] In building structures, the connection between concrete beams and inclined columns is a crucial point for transmitting internal forces. Traditional connection methods are mainly divided into two categories: one is direct beam-column connection, and the other is connection through column cap transition.

[0003] Direct connection is feasible when the inclined column has a small inclination angle or the beam section height is low. However, when the inclined column has a large inclination angle or the beam section height is high, it is difficult for the beam end section and the inclined column surface to completely overlap, resulting in insufficient effective connection area in the joint area. In addition, the dense arrangement of reinforcing bars in a narrow space can easily lead to insufficient spacing between the reinforcing bars, making it difficult to fill the concrete densely during pouring and causing quality defects.

[0004] While cylindrical column capitals can expand the joint area, their curved formwork is complex to fabricate, requires high precision in formwork support, and results in low construction efficiency. When tying reinforcing bars within a cylindrical space, operators struggle to accurately position the stirrups, leading to problems such as rebar displacement and insufficient lap length. More importantly, the closed stirrups of traditional column capitals require continuous bending of a single rebar, demanding extremely high processing precision, making construction difficult and quality control challenging.

[0005] In summary, existing technologies struggle to balance node reliability, ease of construction, and quality control, necessitating a new type of connection node to resolve these contradictions. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a non-orthogonal concrete beam-inclined column connection node that is easy to construct and has reliable force transmission. It optimizes the reinforcement anchorage and formwork support through a square column cap and innovates the stirrup structure to reduce construction difficulty.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed in this application is as follows:

[0008] This invention provides a connection node between a concrete beam and an inclined column, comprising:

[0009] Concrete inclined column, at least one concrete beam, and square column capital;

[0010] The square column cap encloses the inclined column node area at the beam-column intersection, and the inner wall of the square column cap completely covers the inclined column surface of the node area.

[0011] The ends of each concrete beam are connected to the sidewall of the square column cap, and the longitudinal reinforcement of the beam extends through into the interior of the square column cap.

[0012] The bottom elevation of the square column cap is lower than the bottom elevation of the concrete beam.

[0013] The vertical closed stirrups of the square column cap are formed by overlapping U-shaped and L-shaped steel bars to create a closed ring structure.

[0014] Furthermore, the inclined column is a cylindrical structure;

[0015] When both sides of the inclined column are connected to concrete beams, the longitudinal reinforcement of one side of the concrete beam passes through the square column cap and the inclined column, and extends into the concrete beam on the other side as its longitudinal reinforcement.

[0016] When the inclined column is connected to the concrete beam on only one side, the longitudinal reinforcement of the concrete beam extends to the opposite side of the square column cap and then bends and anchors.

[0017] Furthermore, the square column cap is a vertically arranged cubic structure, and its bottom elevation is 50mm lower than the bottom elevation of the concrete beam.

[0018] Furthermore, the minimum distance between the outer wall of the square column cap and the outer edge of the inclined column is 100-150mm.

[0019] Furthermore, the steel reinforcement cage of the square column cap includes:

[0020] Multi-layered parallel horizontal closed stirrups, each layer of horizontal closed stirrups is formed by continuously bending a single steel bar into a rectangular frame;

[0021] Multiple sets of vertical closed stirrups, each set of vertical closed stirrups is composed of one U-shaped steel bar and two L-shaped steel bars lapped together.

[0022] Furthermore, the open end of the U-shaped steel bar overlaps with the end of the L-shaped steel bar, the overlap length is not less than 10 times the diameter of the steel bar, and the overlap part is welded and fixed.

[0023] Furthermore, when multiple concrete beams are connected to inclined columns, at least two concrete beams have the same top surface elevation, and the top surface elevation of the square column cap is flush with the top surface of the concrete beam.

[0024] Furthermore, the horizontal closed stirrups of the square column cap have clearance openings in the area where the beam longitudinal reinforcement passes through, and the beam longitudinal reinforcement passes through these openings to extend into the interior of the column cap.

[0025] Furthermore, the concrete beam includes three concrete beams located in different directions: a first concrete beam, a second concrete beam, and a third concrete beam. The bottom elevation of the first concrete beam is higher than the bottom elevations of the second and third concrete beams, and the top elevations of the three concrete beams are the same.

[0026] Compared with existing technologies, the connection node between a concrete beam and an inclined column of the present invention achieves the following beneficial technical effects:

[0027] This invention uses a square column cap to wrap around the inclined column node, providing ample anchorage space for the longitudinal reinforcement of the beam and ensuring reliable transmission of internal forces. The cubic structure of the column cap greatly simplifies the formwork erection process and improves construction efficiency. The innovative use of split U-shaped and L-shaped steel bars lapped together to form vertical stirrups significantly reduces the difficulty of steel bar processing and binding, avoiding the construction defects of traditional integrally bent stirrups. At the same time, the optimized steel bar arrangement in the node area effectively ensures the compactness of the concrete pouring, thereby improving the overall structural quality and durability.

The centerlines of the first concrete beam 3 and the third concrete beam 5 coincide, and the top surfaces of the three beams are flush, but the bottom surface of the first concrete beam 3 is higher than the bottom surfaces of the second and third concrete beams 4 and 5. The top surface of the square column cap 2 is flush with the top of the beams, and its bottom surface is 50 mm lower than the bottom surfaces of the second and third concrete beams. The distance between the square column cap 2 and the edge of the inclined column 1 is greater than 100-150 mm. Preferably, the inclined column 1 is a cylinder.

[0037] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the longitudinal reinforcement 7 of the second concrete beam 4 passes through the square column cap 2 and through the inclined column 1 to reach the opposite side of the square column cap 2.

[0042] 1) Determine the orientation and top elevation of the concrete beams, where the center lines of the first concrete beam 3 and the third concrete beam 3 coincide, and the top elevations of the three concrete beams are consistent.

[0043] 2) Determine the top elevation, height, and planar dimensions of the square column cap 2 based on the height of the concrete beam and the inclined column 1;

[0044] 3) Tie the reinforcing bars of inclined column 1 and square column cap 2, wherein the vertical reinforcing bars of square column cap 2 are formed by lapping one U-shaped bar and two L-shaped bars;

[0045] 4) Erect the formwork for inclined column 1, square column cap 2, and three concrete beams;

[0046] 5) Tie the reinforcing bars of the concrete beams, wherein the longitudinal reinforcing bars 7 of the second concrete beam 4 are inserted into the square column cap 2 and the inclined column 1 and avoid the reinforcing bars of the square column cap 2 and the inclined column 1, and are bent and anchored downward on the opposite side of the square column cap 2. The longitudinal reinforcing bars 6 of the first concrete beam 3 and the longitudinal reinforcing bars 8 of the third concrete beam 3 are inserted into the square column cap 2 and the inclined column 1 and are arranged in a continuous manner.

[0047] 6) Pour concrete to complete the construction.
