✦ Synopsis

A test programme to obtain experimental data on the behaviour of endplate beam to column connections has been conducted. The reported tests concern joints made between universal beams and tubular columns using endplates bolted directly to the column face with ordinary bolts screwed into threaded holes formed using the flowdrill process. Results obtained from tests are presented in a series of three papers; this final paper reports tests conducted with concrete-filled tubes and the results are compared with those from a parallel series of tests in which the tubes were unfilled. Significant differences in strength and stiffness were observed.

A new thermal drilling technique (the flowdrill process) has made it possible to use ordinary bolts in tapped holes in relatively thin-walled tubes. This in turn has opened the opportunity for traditional partial depth and flush endplate connections to be used to join open section beams to tubular c
