What are the connection methods of steel structures?

During the machining of steel structures, a large amount of steel is polished into the desired shape. Many unsuitable steel pumps were found during processing and never used. Additionally, we know that the performance of steel connection methods varies from place to place. When using, choose according to the characteristics of the building, the effect is more stable. So how are these steel structures connected together?

1. Solder connection

Advantages: simple structure, parts of any shape can be directly connected; save work and materials, easy to process, no drilling, no weakening of the section; fast construction speed, automatic operation can be realized; good connection tightness, high rigidity, good integrity .

Disadvantages: The material is brittle, and it is easy to generate residual stress and residual deformation, which has an adverse effect on the fatigue and stability of the steel structure, and requires high welding requirements.

2. Bolt connection

Advantages: simple construction, convenient installation and disassembly, high requirements for installers, fatigue resistance, and easy to prevent cracking and expansion.

Disadvantages: During the installation of the steel structure, this connection method will consume materials, weaken the opening section, and improve the machining accuracy of the bolt holes.

3. Rivet connection

Advantages: good plasticity, toughness, good dynamic performance.

Disadvantages: waste of material, the process of heating and riveting is very difficult.

We analyze the connection method of the steel structure. In the construction process, the connection method can be selected according to the situation of the steel structure building itself.
