Tubular joints, served as the key components of tubular steel structures, are considerably important in steel structural design. The welded tubular joint is one of the most commonly used joint types due to no stiffening accessories, rapid erection and low steel consumption. Steel material is of good ductility and reliability, but its fire resistance is poor. Yield strength and the elastic modulus decrease as temperature increases. Fire is a very important security problem for welded steel tubular structures. However research on fire resistance behavior of welded tubular joints remains limited. Consequently, in the dissertation, the fire resistance behavior of tubular T-joints is experimentally and numerically analyzed. The main research contents are as follows: Firstly，two (2) tubular T-joint specimens were tested to failure with constant brace axial load under ISO 834 heating process. One of the tested specimens is reinforced with collar plate and the other without any reinforcement. Both of the tested specimens have identical geometrical and material properties. The temperature response, deformation characteristics, failure mode and chord ends strain behavior of the two (2) tubular T-joint specimens are investigated. A comparison of the fire resistance behavior between the tubular T-joint reinforced with collar plate and the specimen without any reinforcement was conducted. Then the finite element (FE) package ABAQUS with sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis is adopted to simulate the joint specimens. The FE and the experimental results are shown in good agreement after the verification of the temperature-time curves, temperature-fire endurance time curves and failure modes. In other words, the FE models are reliable and accurate enough to conduct the parametric study. A comprehensive parametric study of tubular T-joints is carried ou
