Abstract

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.

Claims (8)

1. A column-beam junction structure composed of a prestressed concrete (PC) column and a steel beam that are integrally jointed to each other, the steel beam including an H-section steel as a beam main body and a beam end block that is provided at an end of the H-section steel, the steel beam being disposed in a state in which the end is mounted on a cogging provided to a side surface of the column,

the beam end block including an end plate and an anchor plate, the end plate being fixed at an end surface of the H-section steel in a direction substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the steel beam, the anchor plate being fixed to the H-section steel separately from the end plate, on a side opposite to the column, in the direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the steel beam,

the end of the H-section steel including an upper part and a lower part, the upper part protruding toward the column more than the lower part and being mounted on the cogging,

the end plate including an outer end plate and an inner end plate, the outer end plate being fixed at an end surface of the upper part of the H-section steel and facing the side surface of the column via a first joint, the inner end plate being fixed at an end surface of the lower part of the H-section steel and facing the cogging via a second joint,

the beam end block having a height dimension larger than a height dimension of the H-section steel, the beam end block having 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,

the column and the beam end block being penetrated by a PC tendon, the PC tendon being tensioned and anchored to a surface on a side opposite to the column of the anchor plate to perform the integral jointing,

wherein a space between the end plate and the anchor plate is filled with a filler material.

2. The column-beam junction structure according to claim 1 , wherein the filler material is at least one of mortar or concrete.
