Research on collapse ultimate load of fabricated reinforced concrete column and steel beam composite frame structure

In this work, the collapse ultimate load of a prefabricated reinforced concrete column-steel beam composite frame structure was studied. During the study, the "new RCS beam-to-column joint" was used as the beam-to-column connection in the experimental model. Further, the half-scale fabricated RCS space frame structure (2-story, 1 × 2 bay) was subjected to instantaneous failure experiments twice at the bottom of the side column under various load levels and the 2A column was quickly pulled out by the traction force of the vehicle. The experimental results demonstrated that the method of dismantling the failure column provided a relatively true response to the condition of progressive collapse. The remaining RCS structure was found to be in the elastic stage during various load level tests. Moreover, the displacement time history curve did not have a vibration phenomenon during the first experimentation. The SAP2000 finite element program was used to verify that the test results were similar to that of the numerical simulation results, and it was further explored and found that the collapse ultimate load value was 10.25 times the structure design load value.
