| Abstract | ||
| In this paper an experimental study is performed on end-plate type joints. The testrnarrangement represents a column-base joint of a steel frame. Altogether six specimens were tested, eachrnof them subjected to cyclic loading. The specimens were carefully designed by performing detailedrnpreliminary calculations so that they would present typical behaviour types of end-plate joints. On thernbasis of the experimentally established moment-rotation relationship, the cyclic characteristics of eachrnspecimen have been calculated and compared to one another. The results are evaluated, qualitative andrnquantitative conclusions are drawn. | ||
