This paper uses the SAP2000 to establish different beam column connections of steel frame structure finite element model, comparative analysis of the beam column for the rigid connection, hinged, semi-rigid connections of steel frame structure, the dynamic characteristics of structure displacement and internal force influence. At the same time, the dynamic time-history analysis method for structural displacement supplementary checking, analysis of structural response to seismic wave degree.The results showed that:compared with rigid, the structure of semi-rigid connections to the larger natural period,and with the rotation stiffness decreases vibration period increases; Semi-rigid steel frame connection to reduce the resistance to push the layer stiffness,making the structure of the horizontal displacement increased.

The accurate sine-swept function is proposed by theoretic derivation. The natural frequencies of five-story steel frame structure in transverse direction were identified by modal test. Based on the numerical simulation results of steel frame structure excited by sine-swept vibration, it is proved that the difference of structural response between forward excitation and backward excitation is little,and both the results of them can be used to evaluate the dynamic property of structure. However, it is proper to decide whether the response results of structure should be modified or not based on the dynamic properties of table-board. The conclusions above can provide basis for design and dynamic time-domain analysis of shaking table test in sine-swept excitation.

Most steel beam-column connections actually show semi-rigid deformation behavior that can contribute substantially to overall displacements of the structure and to the distribution of member forces. Steel frame structure with semi-rigid connections are becoming more and more popular due to their many advantages such as the better satisfaction with the flexible architectural design, low inclusive cost and environmental protect as well. So it is very necessary that studying the behavior of those steel frame under cyclic reversal loading. On the basics of connections experiments the experiment research on the lateral resistance system of steel frame structure has been completed. Two one-second scale, one-bay, two-story steel frames with semi-rigid connections under cyclic reversal loading. The seismic behavior of the steel frames with semi-rigid connections, including the failure pattern, occurrence order of plastic hinge, hysteretic property and energy dissipation, etc, was investigated in this paper. Some conclusions were obtained that by employing top-mounted and two web angles connections, the higher distortion occurred in the frames, and the internal force distributing of beams and columns was changed, and the ductility and the absorbs seismic energy capability of steel frames can be improved effectively.

Purpose Progressive collapse because of high temperatures arising from an explosion, vehicle impact or fire is an important issue for structural failure in high-rise buildings. Design/methodology/approach The present study, using ABAQUS software for the analysis, investigated the progressive collapse of a two-dimensional, three-bay, four-storey steel frame structure from high-temperature stresses. Findings After structure reaches the temperature results like displacement, stress axial load and shear force are discussed. Research limitations/implications Different temperatures were applied to the columns at different heights of a structure framed with various materials. Progressive collapse load combinations were also applied as per general service administration guidelines. Originality/value This study covered both steady-state and transient-state conditions of a multistorey-frame building subjected to a rise in temperature in the corner columns and intermediate columns. The columns in the framed structure were subjected to high temperatures at different heights, and the resulting displacements, stresses and axial loads were obtained, analysed and discussed.
