Abstract
Structural bolts have widely been used in prefabricated construction to connect the top and bottom steel columns. In recent years, normal structural bolts have been used to connect two concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns to make efficient construction for prefabricated CFST columns and noticed that such bolts are under compression. Although extensive research has been conducted under tension, there is limited research on structural bolts under compression. Even, the effect of bolt thread under compression has not been investigated. The main aim of this study is to investigate the effect of bolt thread on the ultimate capacity and failure mode under tension and compression. The results indicate that the ultimate capacity of the bolts under compression is higher compared to the bolts under tension. Furthermore, the failure mode of the bolt under compression is also different compared to the tensile one.
