AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, when adding steel brackets to old concrete columns, the insufficient edge and center distances of multiple rows of anchor bolts lead to cracking of the concrete columns and make construction difficult, failing to meet the renovation requirements.
The design adopts a combination of anchor bolts and external angle steel. By welding the external angle steel to replace some of the anchor bolts, a hoop structure is formed, reducing the number of anchor bolts required. The shear force is transferred by connecting the angle steel to the anchor plate.
This solved the problem of insufficient anchor bolt insertion, prevented concrete cracking, reduced construction difficulty, and improved construction progress.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of building renovation and reinforcement technology, and in particular to a connection structure for adding steel brackets to existing concrete columns. Background Technology
[0002] Old factory buildings, due to their long service life, suffer from structural aging and damage, or their original structures no longer meet current standards and specifications, making them unsuitable for the evolving functional needs of modern production. Therefore, they require renovation and reinforcement to eliminate safety hazards and meet new requirements. During the renovation and reinforcement of old factory buildings, corbels are often added to existing concrete columns as new load-bearing supports. This is because corbels can efficiently transfer concentrated loads (such as crane beams and mezzanine beam loads), avoiding excessive damage to the already aged and damaged old concrete columns. They can also be specifically adapted to the specific functional requirements after the renovation, providing a reliable force transmission path for new components and ensuring the safe transfer of new loads to the old structure.
[0003] The current conventional method involves inserting multiple rows of anchor bolts into concrete columns to fix anchor plates, and then welding steel brackets onto the anchor plates. However, due to the age of the existing concrete columns, the concrete strength is generally low, which increases the damage during the anchor bolt insertion or rebar installation process and easily causes the existing concrete columns to crack. More importantly, due to cross-sectional limitations, some columns cannot meet the structural requirements for the edge distance and center distance of the anchor bolts, making it impossible to carry out the renovation project. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address or partially address the problems existing in related technologies, this application provides a connection structure for adding steel corbels to existing concrete columns. It adopts a combination design of anchor bolts and external angle steel, and uses welded external angle steel to replace some anchor bolts to reduce the impact of too many anchor bolts on the column.
[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a connection structure for adding steel corbels to existing concrete columns, including: a row of anchor bolts inserted vertically at intervals in the middle of the structural column; a set of anchor plates installed opposite to the anchor bolts on the surface of the structural column; connecting angle steels snapped onto each edge of the structural column; corbel panels and corbel stiffening plates installed on the anchor plates; one side of the connecting angle steel is connected and fixed to the anchor plate, and the other side is connected to the adjacent connecting angle steel based on the connecting flat steel to form a hoop structure for the structural column.
[0006] The anchor bolts penetrate the front and rear sides of the structural column, and the anchor plates include a front anchor plate installed on the front side and a rear anchor plate installed on the rear side of the structural column.
[0007] The connecting angle steel is set on the four edges of the corresponding structural column, one side is welded to the anchor plate, and the other side is stuck in the structural column and welded to the adjacent connecting angle steel based on the connecting flat steel.
[0008] The technical solution provided in this application may include the following beneficial effects:
[0009] This application provides a connection structure for adding steel brackets to existing concrete columns. It employs a combination design of anchor bolts and external connecting angle steel, solving the problems of insufficient edge and center distances for multiple rows of anchor bolts, while also reducing the impact of too many anchor bolts on the column. The use of welded external connecting angle steel to replace some anchor bolts acts as a confinement around the existing concrete column, preventing concrete cracking, reducing the difficulty of wet drilling operations, and accelerating the construction progress.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] like Figures 1-3 The diagram illustrates a connection structure for adding steel corbels to an existing concrete column, applied to an existing concrete structural column 1 to increase its load-bearing support points. It includes: a row of anchor bolts 2 vertically penetrating the front and rear of the structural column 1 and spaced apart in the middle of the column 1; anchor plates 3 fixed based on the anchor bolts 2; and corbel faceplates 4 and corbel stiffening plates 5 installed on the anchor plates 3. The anchor bolts 2, composed of bolts, nuts, and washers, are used to fix the anchor plates 3 to the concrete structural column 1. Corbel faceplates 4 and corbel stiffening plates 5 are correspondingly installed on the anchor plates 3, allowing the newly added corbels to serve as new load-bearing support points, transferring concentrated loads and avoiding excessive damage to the already aged and damaged old concrete column.
[0023] Four bolts are inserted into the structural column 1. Each bolt connects to a set of anchor plates 3 on the front and rear surfaces of the column 1, including a front anchor plate 3 on the front side and a rear anchor plate 3 on the rear side. Four connecting angle steels 7 are installed on the four edges of the structural column 1, including angle steel No. 1 and No. 2 corresponding to the two front edges, and angle steel No. 3 and No. 4 corresponding to the two rear edges. The right side of angle steel No. 1 and the left side of angle steel No. 2 are welded to the front anchor plate 3, and the right side of angle steel No. 3 and the left side of angle steel No. 4 are welded to the rear anchor plate 3. Because the angle steel itself has an "L-shaped structure" that matches the side edges of the structural column 1, after one side of the connecting angle steel 7 is welded to the anchor plate 3, the other side can hold the structural column 1 in place. Then, connecting flat steels 6 are used to connect angle steel No. 1 and No. 3, and angle steel No. 2 and No. 4 on the left and right sides of the structural column 1, respectively, ultimately forming a hoop structure for the structural column 1.
[0024] Technical points: When constructing the four-sided angle steel, first lay out the positioning lines and weld it to the anchor plate 3 on the ground to reduce the amount of high-altitude welding work; after the anchor plate 3 is in place and the anchor bolt 2 is tightened, connect the flat steel 6 and then weld it to the connecting angle steel 7. During this process, the anchor plate 3 must be in close contact with the concrete column to ensure that the shear force can be effectively transferred between the anchor plate 3 and the concrete. Then weld the connecting flat steel 6, so that the shear force is transferred to the concrete column through the anchor rod and the anchor plate 3.
[0025] Finally, it should be noted that in this document, relationships such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "include," "contain," or any other variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.
