Strength testing and analysis of a stair header connection / Danielle De Tennis. by De Tennis, Danielle Subjects Stair building   Strains and stresses   Structural analysis (Engineering) -- Data processing   Concrete walls   MSST Project.

Contents:  Thesis advisor: Christopher Raebel Committee members: Dr. Richard De Vries, Dr. Douglas Stahl Introduction -- Connection analysis -- Testing plan and experimental protocol -- Results and conclusions -- A: Required load -- B: Elastic connection capacity -- C: Inelastic connection capacity. This paper investigates the demand and calculated capacity of a post-installed stair header connection into concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls. The intent of this connection is to be able to resist similar stair configurations, up to a defined size. The stair configuration was analyzed to determine the maximum force on the connection. Then, the capacity of the connection was determined with both elastic and inelastic analysis from manufacturer's data for the capacity of the connecting expansion anchors. Finally, this connection capacity meets the required connection demand. The connection was found to have less than half the capacity required to support the stair configuration. Additional testing may reduce this capacity further, as test results showed the configuration most thoroughly tested, which was thought to be the weakest configuration, was actually the strongest configuration.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .D47 2010 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
