Abstract

In this paper, a new form of structural design of the combination column—Cellular U-shaped steel combination column, as vertical force components applied to steel structure buildings. By changing the diameter size of honeycomb holes, the thickness of U-shaped steel and embellished plates, and the steel strength, the seismic properties of this new combination steel column are studied by using ABAQUS finite element software. Results the setting of honeycomb hole is reduced by part, the delay of the test piece and its energy consumption capacity are improved to varying degrees, the stiffness degradation rate is improved, and the setting of honeycomb steel plays a certain role in the seismic performance of the steel column. The experiment is used as a reference, and the destruction form and carrying capacity are compared, so that the numerical model has some credibility. Results the strength and stiffness of the cell U-shaped steel grid composition column are analyzed to meet the standards, the seismic performance is good, and can be applied to engineering practice.
