Here we will discuss about the types of joints commonly used for structural steel hollow sections. Hollow sections are of three types, Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) and Square Hollow Sections (SHS) and Circular Hollow Sections (CHS). Following are the joint details for structural steel hollow sections (RHS and SHS) commonly used: 1.

It provides a number of short examples, in the form of calculation sheets, illustrating the design of structural hollow sections for beams and columns in buildings. All the examples were prepared by Miss M E Brettle and checked by Mr A S Malik of The Steel Construction Institute.

2016年7月1日 · Effects of geometrical parameter on mechanical behaviour of steel-concrete-steel SHS X-joints were evaluated. Inner tube and concrete infill significantly enhanced the ultimate strengths of SHS X-joints under axial compression. The proposed design equations of joints were verified to be accurate and reliable.

2022年11月1日 · SHS X-joints were manufactured from the materials described in Section 2.1. For the 500WH material, four different joint configurations (brace and chord members) were applied. Respectively, for the 355WH material, only two different joint configurations were used.

2025年1月15日 · Doubler or collar plate reinforcement has gained popularity in strengthening square hollow section (SHS) joints on the chord. But the existing design rules for the reinforced tubular joints require improvement. This paper reviews literature on SHS joints strengthened by doubler or collar plate.

2010年2月1日 · In this paper, hollow section T-joints made up of square hollow section (SHS) chords and braces are investigated. The chords of the SHS–SHS T-joints were concrete-filled thereby forming welded composite tubular T-joints.

2021年8月1日 · The design of hollow steel section connection in terms of joint resistance and cost fabrication is affected considerably by member sizing since the sections are usually welded to each other. The most common types of hollow steel sections employed in design are;

The steel joint is defined as a uniplanar SHS joint with a full-overlapped top connection, commonly used for industrial applications. Two pipes (typically named braces or branches) are full-overlap connected to the end of a vertical member (also called a chord).

The following suggested method is based on recommendations in CIDECT’s 'Design Of Rectangular Hollow Section (RHS) Joints Under Predominantly Static Loading' and 'Design Of Circular Hollow Section (CHS) Joints Under Predominantly Static Loading' which have been incorporated into Eurocode 3: ENV 1993-1-1:1992/A1:1994, Annex K. .

A diamond bird-beak square hollow section (SHS) T-joint is different from a conventional SHS T-joint as the brace and chord members both rotate 45°.
