    Analytical modeling of post-tensioned precast beam-to-column connections
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Kaya, Mustafa; Arslan, A. Samet
    In this study, post-tensioned precast beam-to-column connections are tested experimentally at different stress levels, and are modelled analytically using 3D nonlinear finite element modelling method. ANSYS finite element software is used for this purposes. Nonlinear static analysis is used to determine the connection strength, behavior and stiffness when subjected to cyclic inelastic loads simulating ground excitation during an earthquake. The results obtained from the analytical studies are compared with the test results. In terms of stiffness, it was seen that the initial stiffness of the analytical models was lower than that of the tested specimens. As a result, modelling of these types of connection using 3D FEM can give crucial beforehand information, and overcome the disadvantages of time consuming workmanship and cost of experimental studies.

    Effect of stress levels applied to pre-stressing strands on post-tensioned beam-to-column connections
    (Wıley-Blackwell, 2012) Kaya, Mustafa; Arslan, A. Samet
    This article presents an experiment study on precast beam-to-column connections with 15.24?mm diameter pre-stressing strands. Stress levels of 40%, 50% and 60% tensile stress were applied to the pre-stressing strands. Following the experiments, precast specimens were compared with those of the reference specimen. The load capacity of the precast specimen stressed at the level of 60% tensile stress reached 98% of the load capacity of the reference specimen, and the amount of energy dissipated by the same specimen reached 48% of that dissipated by the reference specimen. The stiffness of the same precast specimen at 1.5% drift was observed to be 71% of the reference specimen at the same drift. In the experimental studies, it was seen that the maximum stress determined in this specimen, which pre-stressing strands provide connection, reached approximately 75% of the tensile strength of the pre-stressing strands. It could not be said that topping concrete in experiment specimens increased strength. Copyright (c) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    The effect of the diameter of prestressed strands providing the post-tensioned beam-to-column connections
    (Elsevıer Scı Ltd, 2009) Kaya, Mustafa; Arslan, A. Samet
    In this study, the effect of prestressed strand diameters, providing the beam-to-column connections, was investigated from both experimental and analytical aspects. In the experimental studies, the strength, stiffness and energy dissipation capacities of the precast specimens comprising two prestressed strand samples of 12.70 mm and 15.24 mm diameters, were compared with the reference specimen. The precast specimen with strands of 15.24 mm reached 96% of the maximum strength of the reference specimen; the amount of energy dissipated by this specimen by the end of the experiment reached 48% of the amount of energy dissipated by the reference sample; and the stiffness of the same specimen at a drift of 1.5% reached 77% of the stiffness of the reference specimen at this drift. Parallel results were obtained during the analytical studies from the aspects of strength and behavior, but the initial stiffness of the analytical models was lower than that of the test specimens.
