    摘要: A structure enables free and reasonable designing of a cross section of an end of a steel beam in accordance with bending stress and a housed state of a PC steel, thereby providing an economic and reasonable building as a whole. A beam end block includes end plates and an anchor plate. The end plates are fixed at an end surface of an H-section steel in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the beam. The anchor plate is fixed to the H-section steel separately from the end plates, on a side opposite to a column, in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the beam. An end of the steel beam has an upper part and a lower part. The upper part protrudes toward the column more than the lower part and is mounted on a cogging. The beam end block has a height dimension larger than the height dimension of the H-section steel and has a lower end that is disposed at substantially the same height as a lower end of a side surface of the cogging facing the lower part of the end of the steel beam.

    摘要: There is provided a method of introducing prestress into a beam-column joint of PC construction to make it into a triaxially compressed state, in which the beam-column joint is made into a triaxial compression state and reasonable prestress is introduced into cross section areas of the ends of the members forming the beam-column joint.
    A tensile introducing force is generated by tensionally anchoring PC cables passed through the beam-column joint to introduce prestresses into the cross section areas of the ends of the members forming the beam-column joints in respective axial directions to make triaxial compression state, to satisfy the following conditions (1) and (2): (1) no tensile strength is generated, with respect to long term design load, in cross-section areas of the members forming the end of the beam and the end of the column, which ends are in contact with the beam-column joint; and (2) upon occurring of extremely large scale earthquake (very rarely occurred earthquake), in the beam-column joint, no generation of diagonal cracks is allowed to be generated but diagonal tensile stress intensity caused due to shear force inputted by seismic load is made less than allowable tensile stress intensity of concrete.

    摘要: There is provided a method of prestressing a beam-column joint with an appropriate ratio among the magnitudes of compression in the directions of X, Y, and Z axes. The method introduces prestress in a beam-column joint with a tensile introducing force generated by tensionally anchoring prestressing tendons that are arranged in PC beams extending along two horizontal directions (or X axis and Y axis) and PC columns extending along the vertical direction (or Z axis) and passed through the beam-column joint to bring the beam-column joint in triaxial compression, the prestress being introduced such that a diagonal tensile force T generated by an input shear force due to a seismic load of an extremely great earthquake that may occur very rarely will be cancelled completely or partially so as not to allow diagonal cracks to occur. The ratio of the prestresses introduced in the directions of the respective axes satisfies the following equation (1): σx:σy:σz=1:1:0.3−0.9   (1) where σx, σy, and σz are prestresses introduced in the directions of the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis respectively.
