要旨 :
海洋構造物における鋼管格点の挙動,耐力の調査を目的として,主管に1400φ,支管に800φの鋼管を用いた実大T 型および十字型格点による静加力実験ならびに低サイクル疲労実験を実施した。その結果を過去の研究成果と比較して次のような結論を得た。すなわち,応力集中係数は主管で5.4〜11.6,支管で4.7〜8.4に達するが,既往計算式にはかなり低い値を与えるものがある。支管圧縮軸力に対する耐力は各式の値と良く合うが,支管引張軸力の場合は実験耐力の方がかなり高い。しかし,実際設計を考慮すればASI規準が妥当な値を与える。また,疲労強度設計はAWS 規準のX 曲線によるのが良いが,そのためには格点の正確な応力またはひずみ集中係数が明らかにされていなければならず,これらに関する研究をさらに必要としている。
Synopsis :
Full scale model tests have been carried out to investigate static and fatigue strength of tubular joints in offshore stuctures. The models consist of tee and cross type joints having chord tubes of 1400mm in O.D. and brace tubes of 800mm in O.D., which were subjected to static tension and compression loads and to cyclic tension loads through the braces. Comparison of these test results with previous works gives the following results. (1) Stress concentration factors derived from the tests are in the range from 5.4 to 11.6 in the chords and from 4.7 to 8.4 in the braces, and it is notable that much smaller values are predicted in some previous tests. (2) Ultimate strength of the joints under compression load has a good agreement with proposed strength in previous studies, but under tension load experimental strength gives a larger value than proposed. Considering design practice, however, the API recommendation appears to give a reasonable estimation for static strength. (3) Low cycle fatigue strength is safely predicted by the X-curve in the AWS criteria, but in order to apply the X-curve to the practical design of various joints, additional research will be needed to develop adequate method for the calculation of stress or strain concentration factors.
