Finite element Analysis of Semi-Grouting Sleeve Connection Member Based on ABAQUS
Abstract
This paper use investigates the force transfer mechanism and failure form of semi-grouting sleeve members under axial load, analyze the weak points of structural bearing capacity and verify the reliability of the connection of steel bars through finite element analysis software. The results show that adding the axial load to semi-grouting sleeve forms a 45°oblique compression zone, which help to transfer stress between reinforcement, grouting material and sleeve. Because the maximum stress of sleeve doesn’t reach its tensile resistance and the deformation of the sleeve is located at the junction of the grouting and the threaded section when the stress value of steel bars at each end of the semi-grouting sleeve reach its ultimate tensile strength, we conclude that the semi-grouting sleeve members can meet the construction quality requirements and be used to connect the steel bars at the joints of the assembled structures. It is necessary to avoid breaking down, since the deformation section will accumulate large plastic deformation during the processing of the sleeve.
