The main
purpose of the investigation presented is the characterization of the nonlinear
dynamic behavior of steel joints between I profile beams and hollow section
columns with welded reverse channel. The experimental program supporting this
investigation consists on the determination of the characteristics of the
nonlinear cyclic behavior of the connection between I profile beams and
circular or rectangular hollow section columns. The main goal of this research
program is the identification and characterization of the connection components
that control the hysteretic behavior of the connections to be used in seismic
areas. The paper presents preliminary test results.
