ADVANCED DESIGN MODEL FOR STRUCTURAL STEEL CONNECTIONS

Original language description

Development of general-purpose software and decreasing cost of computational resources facilitate the trend of application of design FEA oriented models of steel structures. The FEA of structural connection is the coming step in structural steel design. As the computational tools become more readily available and easier to use even by relatively inexperienced engineers the proper procedure should be employed when judging the results of computational analysis. The Component Based Finite Element Model (CBFEM) is a multilevel FEA method developed to analyse and design connections of steel structures. The steel plates are analysed in CBFEM procedure by FEA. The connectors, e.g. bolt, welds, anchor bolts, are included as components. The proper behaviour of components is treated by introducing a springs representing well its behaviour in term of initial stiffness, ultimate resistance and deformation capacity The only way to prove correctness of simulated results is through a methodical System response quantity process. The System response quantity consist of Validation, which compares the numerical solution with the experimental data, of Verification, which compares computational solutions with highly accurate analytical or numerical solution, and of Benchmark cases, the examples for check of the software and its user on approved and simplified input and output. To help with this process is prepared a contribution, which summarises the history of achievements of FEA application in structural connections. The particular attention is dedicated to design models of hollow section joints.
