TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION EUROCODE 3 - ANNEX J ROTATION CAPACITY COMPONENTS NUMERICAL EXAMPLE CONCLUSIONS

M. Sc. Thesis: Rotation capacity of semi rigid connections (by Erik Zupančič)

- Conclusions

- 3D numerical model

- Initial geometric imperfection

- Material characteristics

- Column web in compression

- Expected results (bigger axial force, biger

slenderness – smaller limit displacement)

- Column web in tension

- Comparision of expressions with numerical simulation

18

TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION EUROCODE 3 - ANNEX J ROTATION CAPACITY COMPONENTS NUMERICAL EXAMPLE CONCLUSIONS

M. Sc. Thesis: Rotation capacity of semi rigid connections (by Erik Zupančič)

- Column web in shear

- Expected results (bigger axial force, smaller

ratio height/width of panel – smaller limit rotation)

- Column flange and end plate in bending

- Equivalent T – Stub (three different modes)

- Mode 1 (plastification of plate)

- Mode 2 (plastification of plate and bolt)

- Mode 3 (plastification of bolt)

- Comparision of expressions with numerical simulation

TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION EUROCODE 3 - ANNEX J ROTATION CAPACITY COMPONENTS NUMERICAL EXAMPLE CONCLUSIONS

M. Sc. Thesis: Rotation capacity of semi rigid connections (by Erik Zupančič)

- Component method

- Simple calculation of rotation capacity of connection

- Difficult calculation of all three characteristics of connection

- Good results (comparision of method results with test results)

TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION EUROCODE 3 - ANNEX J ROTATION CAPACITY COMPONENTS NUMERICAL EXAMPLE CONCLUSIONS

M. Sc. Thesis: Rotation capacity of semi rigid connections (by Erik Zupančič)

- Future work

- Method of expansion on all types of connections

- 3D numerical simulation of complete connection

- More experimental tests

- Comparision of several calculated examples with tests

- Behaviour of components and expressions
