Abstract

The paper discusses the site-monitoring which has been carried out on a real building that made full use of the semi-continuous design approach, the first ever in Europe to be designed and constructed in this way. Primary and secondary beams were monitored during construction, and later loading of the structure.

The finite element models have been set up to investigate the influence of using semi-rigid connections in steel frameworks. All these numerical results have been validated against the test data obtained from laboratory and site testing. From these models it will be possible to establish new design methods for frame design utilising the strength and stiffness of composite floor and connections.
