Abstract

In order to investigate the dynamic performance and seismic performance of bolted connections between glued laminated bamboo and steel plates under dynamic loading and to ensure their reliability, this experimental program took into account variables such as the thickness-to-diameter ratio, the bolt spacing parallel to the grain, and the bolt arrangement, and designed and fabricated 3 types, 9 groups, and 27 connections, on which hysteretic tests were carried out under low-cycle reversed loading. The test results show that in the single-bolt connections, the bolt failure mode gradually shifted from "bolt remaining straight" to a "single-hinge" failure mode, while the bamboo scrimber consistently exhibited the typical dowel-bearing (embedment) failure mode. The hysteresis curves of the specimens were all relatively full and spindle-shaped, indicating.
