METHOD OF INTRODUCING PRESTRESS TO BEAM-COLUMN JOINT OF PC STRUCTURE IN TRIAXIAL COMPRESSION

摘要

There is provided a method of introducing prestress into a beam-column joint of PC construction to make it into a triaxially compressed state, in which the beam-column joint is made into a triaxial compression state and reasonable prestress is introduced into cross section areas of the ends of the members forming the beam-column joint.;A tensile introducing force is generated by tensionally anchoring PC cables passed through the beam-column joint to introduce prestresses into the cross section areas of the ends of the members forming the beam-column joints in respective axial directions to make triaxial compression state, to satisfy the following conditions (1) and (2):(1) no tensile strength is generated, with respect to long term design load, in cross-section areas of the members forming the end of the beam and the end of the column, which ends are in contact with the beam-column joint; and(2) upon occurring of extremely large scale earthquake (very rarely occurred earthquake), in the beam-column joint, no generation of diagonal cracks is allowed to be generated but diagonal tensile stress intensity caused due to shear force inputted by seismic load is made less than allowable tensile stress intensity of concrete.
