STUDY ON THE CONTROLLING PARAMETERS DESCRIBING RELATIONSHIP OF OUTER-SHELL BEAM-COLUMN CONNECTION

Based on previous research results and experimental data, the mechanical performance of outer-shell connection (OSC) is studied. The three-parameter model describing relationship is put forward and the calculation results of the model agree well with test data. With the model, the curve of OSC can be obtained by the parameters of material character and geometry size, and it can be referred for the engineering practice.
