The multi-directional mechanical behaviour of angle brackets and hold-downs (i.e. NINO and WKR) is investigated in this study by means of monotomc tests in tensile (Fl), in-plane shear (F2/3) and out-of-plane (F4) load configurations. The values of resistance and stiffness for each angle bracket were determined. For WKR hold-downs the load acting on anchor bolt were measured through a load cell. The analyses of results showed that the tested connectors are characterized by significant strength and stiffness for different load configurations, as reported in other experimental campaign for similar connectors where the multi-directional behaviour was investigated.

Abstract

The multi-directional mechanical behaviour of angle brackets and hold-downs (i.e. NINO and WKR) is investigated in this study by means of monotomc tests in tensile (Fl), in-plane shear (F2/3) and out-of-plane (F4) load configurations. The values of resistance and stiffness for each angle bracket were determined. For WKR hold-downs the load acting on anchor bolt were measured through a load cell. The analyses of results showed that the tested connectors are characterized by significant strength and stiffness for different load configurations, as reported in other experimental campaign for similar connectors where the multi-directional behaviour was investigated.
