  • T-member secured to opposite sides of the web and having their flanges inthe planes of opposed side faces of the beam or column.
  • Axially extending bolts may be secured to the web of the I- member or to the legs of the T-members and project from the end of the beam or column to serve as means for splicing the beam or column to a further beam, column, base or capping member.
  • the invention also provides a method of making a beam or column as above described in which a short length of I-section rolled steel joist channel section or other anchor member, with holes for fixing bolts in a face or flange or flanges thereof, is placed in a mould for the beam or column with at least one face or flange against a side or the bottom of the mould and is attached to the mould side and/or the bottom of the mould by bolts passing through bolt holes in the said face or flange and concrete is cast into the mold around the anchor member and to form the beam or column.

  • FIG. ZI shows an arrangement for fixing a base ofa column
  • FIG. 22 is an end view illustrating the method of casting a column incorporating the anchor member shown in FIG. 5.
  • FIGS. I to 7 show various forms of anchor member attachment means cast into a reinforced concrete column.
  • these means comprise a short length of l-section steel joist, the length being just sufficient to correspond with the depth of the attachment means of a beam (e.g. of steel) to be connected to the column and, usually, not more than about one-sixth of the length of the column.
  • a beam e.g. of steel
  • FIG. 1 only one flange of the joist is exposed at a
  • the anchor member is, preferably, a length of I-section steel surface of the column, for attachment of a single beam.
  • both flanges are exposed for attachment of two beams in alignment.
  • short lengths 31 of T-section are welded to the web of the joint, the crossmembers of the T-sections being exposed at a surface or surfaces of the column for attachment of a beam or beams.
  • the arrangement in FIG. 3 is for attachment of two beams at right angles. That in FIG. 4 for attachment of three beams in T configuration and that in FIGS. 5 to 7 for attachment of four beams.
  • Holes, (e.g. 32) are provided in the exposed flanges for attachment bolts and nuts are cast into the concrete behind the holes.
  • the T-members 31 are replaced by short channel members 34 welded by the edges of their flanges to the edges of the l-section 30.
  • Webs 35 may be welded between the channels and the I-section but are not essential for light constructions.
  • the I- section member is replaced by a central tube or rod 36 to which are welded T-members 37, similar to the members 31.
  • Threeand four-way connections equivalent to FIGS. 4 and 5 may also be constructed.
  • FIGS. 17 and 18 there is a short length of square section tube 40, or two such lengths spaced apart along the column, and the column is cast into the tubes.
  • the tubes have bolt holes, equivalent to holes 32, and nuts 41 are cast into the concrete behind the tubes for beam attachment bolts 42.
  • FIGS. 17 and 18 show, respectively, attachments for a single beam and for two beams but, of course there may be arrangements equivalent to any of FIGS. 1 to 5.
  • FIG. 19 shows the attachment of four floor beams 64 to an insert 65 at the top of a column 66, the insert being as shown in FIG. 5.
  • the beams have plates 67 welded to their ends and strengthening fillets 68.
  • Bolts 69 engaging in nuts 70 embedded in the concrete are used to connect the beams to the insert.
  • the beams are cut to design lengths which leave small gaps between the plates 67 and the insert. These gaps are filled by shims or distance pieces 72.
  • FIG. 20 The construction shown in FIG. 20 is basically similar to that of FIG. 19 but is designed for heavier loads.
  • the plates 67 are omitted and replaced by angle cleats 80, 8] which are used to attach the beams to the insert 65 during erection. After attachment in this may the beams are welded, as seen at 83, to the insert whereupon the cleats 80, 81 may be removed, if desired.
  • the insert is strengthened by fillets 84 between the flanges and webs and/or fillets 85 between the webs of the insert. In addition to strengthening the insert itself, these fillets also provide additional bearing area on the concrete for transmitting the endwise loads thereto.
  • FIG. 21 there is shown an attachment for the base of a column 100 to a support surface 101.
  • the column has an insert 102 according to FIG. 2 to which are attached brackets 103 anchored by bolts 104 to the surface 101.
