THE INVESTIGATION OF THE TEMPERATURE EFFECT ON THE SCREW CONNECTION ON STEEL STRUCTURES

ABSTRACT: Recent international regulations have special terms for considering high temperature effects on steel and steel made product. Steel structures junctions are most important factor that determines these structures behavior firing and its effect on screw connection of steel structures behavior is studied by using finite difference method and ANSYS software. Results are compared with valid experimental results which finally led to appropriate responses to numerical modeling for such issues
