Analysis of the Mechanical Behavior of Gusset Plate to CHS KKjoints
A nonlinear finite elements analysis was carried out to investigate the failure modes and the ultimate strength of gusset plate to CHS KKjoints. The effects of web loading proportion
geometric parameters and axial stress in chord on the ultimate strength were considered. It was found that the ultimate strength of gusset plate to CHS KKjoints was greatly decreased with the increase of web loading proportion when the proportion value was positive; however
the web loading proportion had less effect on the ultimate strength when the proportion value was negative. And with the varying of web loading proportion
the effect of the axial stress in chord on the ultimate strength of KKjoints had a complex effect on the joint mechanic behavior. Based on the regression analysis
a formula was proposed for predicting the ultimate strength of gusset plate to CHS KKjoints.
