However, when the beam flange is pulled out by tension force, the face of the steel tube column deforms out of its plane. Therefore, the flexural strength of through-diaphragm connections to CFRST columns is usually governed by the strength at the connection when tension force is transferred ...
15 mg of partly aromatic polyester were dissolved in 10 ml of hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). 125 μl at a time of this solution were analyzed using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The measurements were carried out at room temperature. HFIP+0.05% by weight of potassium trifluoroacetate salt ...
