Abstract

This paper presents a simplified approach to estimate the pull-out behaviour of headed anchor blind bolts (HABB) from concrete filled circular hollow section (CFCHS). The approach was developed based on a multi-linear component spring model representing the behaviour of the blind bolt's components, i.e. the bolt's shank, the embedded head, and the washer bearing on the inside of the tube wall. Extensive finite element analyses (FEA) were used to develop and calibrate the nonlinear behaviour of each component for monotonic loading only, in which the yield and ultimate strength, as well as the initial and secant stiffness of each component were taken into account. Important parameters such as ..
