SUMMARY:A Study on an Innovative Pin-Connected Structural System for Large-Span Steel Structures
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below: \nWebinar details\nJoin us for an in-depth webinar exploring the innovative use of pin-connected joints in long-span steel structures. This session will cover the introduction of a pin-connected joint designed to accommodate in-plane rotation and resist shear forces. \nThese pinned-connections were applied to truss-column joints to support heavy-loaded floors and roofs\, designed in accordance with European codes and compared with American and Australian standards. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the material behavior and structural performance of this pin-connection system\, four specimens\, including two full-scale pin-connections and two truss connections\, were tested under both monotonic and cyclic loads. The webinar will present findings on load–displacement curves\, hysteretic behavior\, ultimate loads\, failure modes\, capacity\, and ductility\, demonstrating the excellent ductility\, load transfer ability\, and capacity of the pin-connection through experimental and numerical results. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nUnderstanding Pin-connected new systems\nChallenges in Large-Span Structures\nBehavior of Truss-Column Pinned Connections\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Civil Engineering  and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Structural Design for Non-Structural Engineers\n52873WA Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering\n52896WA Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering (Materials Testing)\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Civil & Structural Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Civil: Structural)\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Jianwei Ma\, EIT DEng Candidate & Charted Engineer \nWith over 20 years of experience in structural design\, Dr. Jianwei Ma has successfully led projects across various sectors\, including residential\, high-rise\, industrial\, and commercial buildings.
