A component method model for blind-bolts with headed anchors in tension (2015)
Journal Article
Pitrakkos, T., & Tizani, W. (2015). A component method model for blind-bolts with headed anchors in tension. Steel and Composite Structures, 18(5), 1305-1330. https://doi.org/10.12989/scs.2015.18.5.1305

Copyright © 2015 Techno-Press, Ltd. The successful application of the component-based approach - widely used to model structural joints - requires knowledge of the mechanical properties of the constitutive joint components, including an appropriate a...

Fire performance of blind-bolted connections to concrete filled tubular columns in tension (2015)
Journal Article
Pascual, A. M., Romero, M., & Tizani, W. (2015). Fire performance of blind-bolted connections to concrete filled tubular columns in tension. Engineering Structures, 96, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2015.03.067

This paper describes an advanced numerical model to predict the fire behaviour of blind-bolts in the tension area of endplate connections between I-beams and concrete filled tubular (CFT) columns. It is the continuation of a previous research on the... Read More about Fire performance of blind-bolted connections to concrete filled tubular columns in tension.

BIM extension for the sustainability appraisal of conceptual steel design (2015)
Journal Article

Performance of T-stub to CFT joints using blind bolts with headed anchors (2015)
Journal Article
Tizani, W., & Pitrakkos, T. (2015). Performance of T-stub to CFT joints using blind bolts with headed anchors. Journal of Structural Engineering, 141(10), https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29ST.1943-541X.0001169

This paper assesses the performance of a newly developed blind bolt, intended for use in constructing bolted moment-resisting connections to concrete-filled tubular steel profiles. A total of ten connection tests are reported, with each configuration... Read More about Performance of T-stub to CFT joints using blind bolts with headed anchors.
