Recent challenge for large-span single-layer reticulated structures is the development of a new joint that can provide these structures with adequate stiffness while satisfying various important requirements, such as easy assembly on a construction site. In this paper, a new semi-rigid joint system, which is referred to as the bolt-column (BC) joint, is developed. A series of tests was performed considering...
The bolt–column (BC) joint, which can efficiently connect H, I and rectangular section members, is actually semi-rigid and of partial strength. The consideration of real semi-rigid behaviour can lead to a more accurate global analysis and, consequently, more optimized structures. In this paper a parametric analysis is conducted on the joint. A total of 341 models, divided into five series G1–G6, were...
