Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a joint structure between columns and beams in a steel-framed building. [Background technology]

[0002] In steel-framed buildings, welding has traditionally been used widely as a means for connecting columns and beams (see, for example, Patent Document 1). The column-beam connection structure described in Patent Document 1 is characterized in that in a column-beam connection structure in which a diaphragm is attached to a steel pipe to form a column and an H-shaped steel beam is welded to this column, haunch plates made of triangular, extremely low yield point steel are attached horizontally to both the left and right sides of the flange of the H-shaped steel beam and welded to the column. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2000-273971 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the column-beam joint structure described in Patent Document 1, the columns and beams are joined by welding, so skilled welders are required for construction. In addition, when constructing the column-beam joint structure, the welding work of the columns and beams is often performed in a factory, and the completed steel frame members are transported to the construction site, but since the size and weight of the steel frame members are large, there is a problem that a large lifting machine or transport vehicle is required to transport them to the construction site.

[0005] On the other hand, the column-beam joint structure described in Patent Document 1 can be constructed at the construction site, but because skilled welders must be deployed to the construction site, construction is becoming more difficult in the current situation of a continuing labor shortage. In addition, a shortage of welders can cause delays in construction.

[0006] Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to provide a column-beam joint structure that is easy to construct without the need for skilled welders, reduces the number of column materials used, and can shorten the construction period. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The column-beam joint structure according to the present invention comprises a plurality of columns erected at a predetermined interval, a lower beam horizontally disposed on the columns, and an upper beam placed on the lower beam in a state intersecting with the lower beam, The joining means between the pillar material and the lower beam material, and the joining means between the lower beam material and the upper beam material are characterized by being bolts and nuts.

[0008] In the above-mentioned beam-column joint structure, a diagonal brace can be attached between the lower beam and the upper beam, which are in an intersecting state with each other, using bolts and nuts. Effect of the Invention

[0009] The present invention makes it possible to provide a column-beam joint structure that is easy to construct without requiring skilled welders, reduces the number of column materials used, and shortens construction time. [Brief description of the drawings]

Then, both ends of a knee brace 16a arranged to connect the stiffener 14 and the gusset plate 15a of the upper beam 12 are fixed to the stiffener 14 and the gusset plate 15a using bolts and nuts BN, respectively. A C-shaped steel 17 is attached to the upper surface of the upper flange 12f of the upper beam 12 along the longitudinal direction of the flange 12f.

[0018] Similarly, as shown in Fig. 6, stiffeners 13 are attached to both sides of the portion of the web 11w of the lower beam 11 located directly above the column 10. In the portion of the upper flange 11f of the lower beam 11 located directly above the stiffener 13, the upper beam 12 is arranged to cross the lower beam 11 in a three-dimensional manner, and the portion where the upper surface of the upper flange 11f of the lower beam 11 and the lower surface of the lower flange 12f of the upper beam 12 are in contact with each other is fastened by a plurality of bolts and nuts BN.

[0019] 6, stiffeners 14 are attached to both sides of the web 12w of the upper beam 12 in the area located directly above the contact portion between the flanges 11f and 12f. Gusset plates 15b are fixed to the underside of the lower flange 12f of the upper beam 12 at positions facing each other across the lower beam 11. Then, both end portions of knee braces 16b arranged to connect the stiffener 13 of the lower beam 11 and the gusset plate 15b are fixed to the stiffener 13 and the gusset plate 15b using bolts and nuts BN.

[0020] Next, the longitudinal connection structure of the lower beam 11 will be described with reference to Fig. 7. As shown in Fig. 7, the ends of the lower beams 11, 11 adjacent to each other on the left and right in the drawing are butted together, and splice plates 18 are arranged on both sides of the webs 11w, 11w of the lower beams 11, 11, respectively, straddling the webs 11w, 11w, and fixed to the webs 11w, 11w with a plurality of bolts and nuts BN.

[0021] In addition, an attachment plate 19a is arranged on the upper surfaces of the upper flanges 11f, 11f of the lower beam members 11, 11 so as to straddle the upper surfaces of the flanges 11f, 11f, and an attachment plate 19b is arranged on the lower surfaces (the surfaces connected to the web 11w) of the upper flanges 11f, 11f so as to straddle the lower surfaces of the upper flanges 11f, 11f, and the attachment plate 19a, the flanges 11f, 11f and the attachment plate 19b are fixed using multiple bolts and nuts BN.
