Abstract

In recent years, building industry in China is experiencing upgrade and industrialization becomes popular. Container building has many advantages including low cost, high efficiency and clean construction. Therefore it is the most promising kind of industrialized building. The joint of boxes in container buildings is one of the main bottlenecks in restricting box-type architecture in multi-story and tall buildings. To solve this problem in box-type buildings, this paper present a new joint of boxes applied to a specific structural system named as column-bearing box-type modular system. The tensile capacity, shear capacity and corresponding failure modes of vertical two-box joint are obtained through experimental study. Meanwhile the flexural bending capacity and flexural stiffness of the vertical two-box joint are studied.
