Analysis on Fracture Behavior and Optimization of Beam-Column Connections with Expanded Flanges of Steel Frames

In this study, the parameters of concave expanded flanges of beam-column connections of steel frames are optimized based on the effects of different sizes of concave expanded flanges on the fracture performance. Firstly, two beam-column connection models with concave expanded flanges are built and a...
