Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a connecting core for column-beam joint, the connecting core being able to secure excellent rigidity through a simple process without welding. To this end, a connecting core for column-beam joint includes: a closed-section intermediate column; a diaphragm; and internal reinforcing members, in which slit for inserting the internal reinforcing members are formed at the diaphragm, and the internal reinforcing members inserted in the diaphragm are combined with the intermediate column. According to the present disclosure, high rigidity is secured, as compared with the related art, when a closed-section column and a beam are connected. Further, a closed-section column and a beam can be connected without welding, so the process can be shortened, connecting become easy, and quality is also uniform.

Claims (24)

1. A connecting core for column-beam joint, the connecting core comprising:

a closed-section intermediate column configured to be connected to a column and a beam;

a diaphragm positioned within a hollow interior of the intermediate column, the diaphragm having slits extending therethough that are disposed on a peripheral region of the diaphragm; and

internal reinforcing members positioned in the slits disposed on the peripheral region of the diaphragm, and

the internal reinforcing members positioned in the diaphragm are combined with the intermediate column.

2. The connecting core of claim 1 , further comprising external reinforcing members that are coupled to an outer side of the intermediate column.

3. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein a stopper for stopping movement of the diaphragm is formed at each of the internal reinforcing members.

4. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein the internal reinforcing members and the external reinforcing members are bolted to the intermediate column.

5. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein stiffeners are formed at an end, which faces external reinforcing members, of the beam.

6. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein the slits are formed along sides of the diaphragm.

7. The connecting core of claim 6 , wherein the internal reinforcing members are fitted in the slits of the diaphragm.

8. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein the slits are each formed in an L-shape at corners of the diaphragm.

9. The connecting core of claim 8 , wherein the internal reinforcing members are each formed in an L-shape and are fitted in the slits of the diaphragm.

10. The connecting core of claim 1 , wherein two slits are formed along each side of the diaphragm.

11. The connecting core of claim 10 , wherein the internal reinforcing members each have two protrusions at each of an upper portion and a lower portion such that two protrusions are fitted in two slits.

12. A method of connecting a column and a beam using the connecting core of claim 1 , the method comprising:

forming the connecting core by assembling the internal reinforcing members, the diaphragm, the intermediate column, and external reinforcing members;

coupling a closed-section lower column to the connecting core;

carrying an assembly of the connecting core and the lower column and then combining a first beam with the assembly;

coupling an upper column to the connecting core; and

coupling a second beam to the connecting core,

wherein the columns and the beams are capable of being connected without welding.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein floors are constructed one by one by connecting the lower column, the upper column, and the beams at one point using the connecting core.

14. The method of claim 12 , further comprising pouring concrete into the upper column, the lower column, and the intermediate column after the coupling of the beams to the connecting core.
