Experimental Research on Fire Resistance of Prefabricated Steel Bracket Connection
Three fire-resistance tests on a new type of prefabricated steel bracket connection with different rib thickness, loads and eccentricities were conducted under the ASTM-E119 temperature curve to investigate the fire-resistance behavior of the connection. The temperature distribution, deformation, failure mode, and fire-resistance of the connection were obtained. The finite element model of the fire-resistance analysis of the connection was established, and the accuracy of the model was verified by the experimental data. The results show that the bearing capacity of the ribs drops sharply at 700 ℃, and the studs reach a bearing capacity limit at about 660 ℃. The failure of the connection is controlled by the buckling of the ribs or the breakage of the studs. The failure shows a certain degree of brittleness (deformation increases sharply). With the increase of eccentricity and load, the fire-resistance of steel brackets decreases. There is a limited enhancement of fire-resistance by increasing the rib thickness. The critical temperature of studs and ribs was given, which can be used as a reference for the fire-resistance design of this kind of connection.
