| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This paper concerns the applicability of the Weibull stress approach for prediction of brittle fracture initiated at the root of welds. Beam-to-diaphragm joint models, which were designed to represent a connection of an I-section beam to RHS column member with through diaphragms, were tested under cyclic loads. Complete joint penetration groove welds were used for the connection between the beam flange and the diaphragm. Specimens had those discontinuities at the roots of welds to the diaphragm, which were created by inserting copper plates into the grooves before welding, or by using wire electrical discharge machining (EDM). Through cracks or surface cracks were installed on both sides of weld terminations.
The prediction of brittle fracture with a variety of defect sizes by using the FE analysis was conducted. The applicability of the Weibull stress approach, comparing it with the applicability of the TSM approach, in predicting brittle fracture from such defects was verified.
