Description
Summary:Three full-size interior composite beam-to-column joint assemblies of a composite building frame with floor slabs were tested under cyclic loading. The assemblies were partly designed with the current Eurocode 4 for composite structures under gravity loads. Several particular design concepts are tested, such as different layouts and concentration of studs and reinforcements, and the influence of a transverse beam in the composite beam-to-column moment force transfer. The specimens were highly instrumented and the main experimental results are presented in this paper. Several features of the behaviour of a composite joint unit, including the effect of the slab on the force transfer in the joint are discussed.
