China Abstract: The fire resistance of tubular Y-joints is investigated by using finite element software ABAQUS. Compared with the existing experimental results, the finite element method is verified to simulate tubular Y-joints properly under fire condition. According to numerical analysis, tubular Y-joints always fail at the intersection between the chord and the brace. The failure mode is influenced by geometrical parameters and load ratio of the joint. The critical temperature and the fire resistance limit time are also studied for the joint under fire condition. Parametric study is then conducted. The effect of geometrical parameters θ, β and γ, as well as load ratio n, on the fire resistance of tubular Y-joints is investigated. The fire resistance of the joint significantly reduces with the increase of the load ratio. In the condition of the same load ratio, the bigger β is, the better the performance of fire resistance is. When the load ratio is small, the bigger θ is, the better the performance of fire resistance is. However, the effect on fire resistance of the joint decreases as the load ratio increases. γ almost has no effect on
