AbstractConnections made by self-drilling screws are often used in steel cold-formed structures and sheeting. Their structural properties, such as resistance, flexibility and ductility are obtained by testing under monotonically increasing loading and can influence on overall behaviour of structures. This paper presents results of experimental study how variable load deteriorates those structural properties of lap shear connections with self-drilling screws. One monotonic and four variable loading histories were utilized, with displacement and force control. Applied loading histories were aimed to simulate persistent design situation, which referred to the conditions of normal use according to EN 1990. Deterioration of resistance and flexibility have been assessed for each variable loading history. It was observed that resistance deterioration is directly proportional to loading range. In case of flexibility, at small displacement range connectors become stiffer. Degradation of flexibility starts to increase at larger displacement range.

This paper describes an experimental study on double-angle shear connections with a narrow outstanding leg width from 31 to 37 mm. When connection angles are welded to a supporting column with a face width less than 152 mm, a common practice is either to weld the angles to the column by flare bevel groove welds or shorten the outstanding legs to accommodate fillet welds. This practice reduces the rotational capacity of the connections; and therefore confirmation of this practice is required. Three groups, comprising 12 full-scale connection specimens, were tested. Each group consisted of four specimens having three, four, five, and six bolts, respectively. Group A used 9.5 mm thick angles and fillet welds, group B used 6.4 mm thick angles and fillet welds, and group C used 9.5 mm thick angles and flare bevel groove welds. The test results demonstrated that both rotational and shear capacities of the connections are satisfactory when either of the two details are used.

The tilted beam illumination method is used to improve the resolution comparing with the axial illumination mode. Using this advantage, a restoration method of several tilted beam images covering the full azimuthal range was proposed by Saxton, and experimentally examined. To make this technique more reliable it seems that some practical problems still remain. In this report the restoration was attempted and the problems were considered. In our study, four problems were pointed out for the experiment of the restoration. (1) Accurate beam tilt adjustment to fit the incident beam to the coma-free axis for the symmetrical beam tilting over the full azimuthal range. (2) Accurate measurements of the optical parameters which are necessary to design the restoration filter. Even if the spherical aberration coefficient Cs is known with accuracy and the axial astigmatism is sufficiently compensated, at least the defocus value must be measured. (3) Accurate alignment of the tilt-azimuth series images.
