Abstract |
The steel structure is excellent in the economy by shorting construction periods using prefabrication methods, which is excellent in strength and ductility in comparison with other structures. However, the big problem in steel joints is how to clear the allowable error of the production precision in the construction. So, we examine the elasto-plastic properties and construction methods of steel brace joints using High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites (HPFRCCs) and steel bars. The test results clearly showed that steel brace using HPFRCCs and steel bars can secure the performance like steel brace and that construction was good. |
