| Title of the article | Joints perfection of steel trusses with chords of hollow polygonal cross section |
| Abstract. | Problem statement. The purpose of this research work was the development of reinforcement solutions of roof trusses chords consisting of zinc-coated pipes of polygonal hollow section with constant thickness ranged from 4-6 mm. Cross sections is formed from blank plate of constant width in such a way that it has gusset along of the length of a chord. Results. Its determined that forces which act on a gusset with thickness from 4 to 6 mm are larger than allowed by statical calculations. Therefore 4 different reinforcement solutions are developed for achieving robust force transferring from brace members of the truss to chords. All reinforcement options exclude welding, which damages the galvanized coating. Finite element models of a part of the top chord of the truss in reinforced state were created and analyzed for all four types of reinforcement solutions. Conclusions. The significance for the construction industry lies in the fact that the coefficients of the efficiency of amplification are obtained. The reinforcement by bending the slots is rational for all the thicknesses considered; reinforcement by installing the intermediate plate is less effective than bending; the preload of bolts in the case of bending is most effective at a thickness of 6 mm, with a thickness of 4 mm is not effective. |
