Abstract
This paper introduces Component Based Finite Element Model (CBFEM) which is a numerical design model to analyze and design connections of steel structures with features demonstrated here on a portal frame eaves bolted connection. The connection in CBFEM procedure is analyzed by Finite Element Method FEM. The correct behavior of components is treated by introducing components that well represent its behavior in terms of initial stiffness, ultimate strength and deformation capacity, of bolts, welds etc. As for another FEM design procedures a special care is given to the validation and verification procedures which is demonstrated here in this contribution on example of portal frame eaves welded connection. In this paper, CBFEM is applied to analyze steel beams and columns also at elevated temperature. The main objective of this study is to verify the CBFEM for predicting the resistance of steel members and connections at elevated temperatures.
