Description

Earthquake-resistant spiral beam column structure and construction method

This invention relates to a beam-column structure for buildings, and more particularly to a seismic-resistant helical beam-column structure.

In building structures, beams and columns form the foundation and support of a building. Columns are perpendicular to the ground or floor slabs, while beams span parallel between two columns. Both beams and columns must possess sufficient structural strength to resist compressive and shear forces, ensuring the overall structural stability of the building. Furthermore, during earthquakes, they must withstand the impact of seismic waves, guaranteeing the building's structural safety.

In conventional buildings, beams and columns are typically reinforced with concrete within steel reinforcement or framing to enhance their structural strength and withstand greater shear stress. However, in earthquake-prone areas, current building beams and columns often only have a single layer of steel reinforcement, which may be insufficient to withstand or conduct strong seismic waves. This could lead to damage or breakage of the beams and columns during an earthquake, potentially compromising home safety.

Due to the aforementioned problems, double-layered steel cages have been developed. However, multiple layers of steel cages not only increase the complexity of the construction process but also raise engineering costs, making it neither an effective nor economically viable improvement.

A seismic-resistant helical beam-column structure includes: two helical spring-shaped columns forming a group, the two groups of columns assembling a column structure, with a concrete layer formed in the gaps between the column structure; a connecting platform disposed above the column structure for accommodating a steel ball; a beam member, helical spring-shaped, sleeved on one side of the steel ball; and a beam extension, helical spring-shaped, sleeved on the other side of the steel ball; wherein a concrete layer is formed in the gaps between the beam member and the beam extension.

The seismic-resistant spiral beam column structure of this invention comprises a column structure whose outer layer is covered with formwork and then filled with concrete.

In this invention, the seismic-resistant spiral beam-column structure is constructed by encasing the beam members and beam extensions in formwork before pouring concrete.

In this invention, a seismic-resistant helical beam column structure is provided, with the connecting platform welded to the top of the column structure.

In this seismic-resistant helical beam-column structure, the steel balls are welded to a support on the connecting platform.

Furthermore, the seismic-resistant spiral beam column structure and construction method of this invention include the following steps: Column assembly step: welding two spiral spring-shaped columns together to form a column set, and then combining the two columns to form a column structure; Beam component assembly step: providing a spiral spring-shaped column structure; Connection step: using a connection platform installed above the column structure for... A steel ball is placed inside the column, with one side connected to a beam member and the opposite side connected to an extension of the beam. The concrete pouring process involves: wrapping formwork around the column structure, creating a concrete layer in the gap between the formwork and the column structure; wrapping formwork around the beam member, creating another concrete layer in the gap between the formwork and the beam member; and the formwork removal process: after the concrete has hardened, removing the formwork completes the beam-column structure.
