Abstract
![CDATA[The combined utilisation of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns and steel beams has increased in composite building construction in recent years. The steel tube of a CFST column normally provides the confinement to the concrete, whilst the concrete restrains the local buckling of the steel tube. The connections between the steel beams and CFST columns can be designed as rigid connection, pinned connection or semi-rigid connection. Known as semi-rigid connections, the endplate connections are gaining popularity due to the ease of installation. This paper investigates the steel beam-CFST column joints with endplate connections, in which the blind bolts are used. The behaviour of the connections is investigated using finite element (FE) analysis. The FE simulation results are compared with test data to verify the FE model. The influence of different types of blind bolts and binding bars on the joint behaviour is analysed.]]
