The present invention relates to a steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture which is substantially fitted to a web opening provided in a steel frame beam web of a steel frame beam in an S structure (steel structure) or an SRC structure (steel framed reinforced concrete structure) to reinforce the steel frame beam in the S structure and SRC structure.
BACKGROUND ARTA web opening is provided in a steel frame beam web of a steel frame beam in an S structure or an SRC structure in a building so that a pipe, a wire, or the like can be passed through the interior of the web opening, and conventionally, an S structure steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture such as the following is provided to reinforce an S structure steel frame beam provided with a web opening. The S structure steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture takes a ring shape, and an outer peripheral portion thereof is welded to a peripheral edge portion of the web opening formed in the S structure steel frame beam. The axial length of the reinforcing metal fixture is between 0.5 and 10.0 times its thickness in the radial direction. According to this reinforcing metal fixture, a pipe can be inserted into the web opening provided in the steel frame beam of the S structure with an improved degree of freedom, and a web opening can be formed in a plasticized region of the steel frame beam in the vicinity of a column-beam joint portion (see Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication 2003-232105).

Note that in this specification, the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1 will be referred to simply as the “axial direction”, and the radial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1 will be referred to simply as the “radial direction”. Further, an axial thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1 denotes the length of the steel frame beam web 5-1 in the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1.
Here, an axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times a thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1, a length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the outer peripheral portion and a length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the outer peripheral portion are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Note that in the first example shown in
According to the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1, the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered. This will now be described using mathematical expressions.
The strength of the steel frame beam web is expressed by the following equation.
(strength of steel frame beam web)=tw×π×(length of web opening diameter)×(allowable stress) [Numeral 1]
The strength of the welded portion 9 is expressed by the following equation.
(maximum value of strength of welded portion 9)=2×t1/√2×π×(length of web opening diameter)×(allowable stress) [Numeral 2]
In the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-1 according to the first example, the length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the outer peripheral portion and the length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the outer peripheral portion are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and hence the following equation can be derived.
2×t1/√2×π×(length of web opening diameter)×(allowable stress)≧tw×π×(length of web opening diameter)×(allowable stress)
∴ t1≧1/√2×tw≈0.7tw [Numeral 3]
Note that the constitution shown in
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction at the other end side. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-2, the length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the outer peripheral portion and the length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the outer peripheral portion are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Note that in the second example shown in
Similarly to the first example, in the second example the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction at the other end side. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3, a length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web to the other end of the outer peripheral portion is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1.
According to the third example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
Also according to the third example, a curved surface is provided on a groove bottom portion 12 of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3, and therefore weld metal lo can be welded to the groove bottom portion 12 easily. Hence, according to the third example, high quality welding can be performed easily at the groove bottom portion 12.
Also according to the third example, the second joint surface (inclined plane) is formed as a continuation of the first joint surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore slag or the like generated during welding can be discharged to the exterior of the groove, enabling easy and high quality welding.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the third example, however, the radius of curvature R of the first joint surface (curved surface) on the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 is set at 0≦R≦(five times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1), and the angle of incline of the second joint surface (inclined plane), which is a continuation of the first joint surface (curved surface), is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily. Hence, according to the third example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced. Note that in the third example, the second joint surface (inclined plane) is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal lo can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the third example, the first joint surface on the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 is a curved surface and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is a plane, but in the present invention, the first joint surface and second joint surface on the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 maybe formed as an integral plane and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be formed as a curved surface. In this case, the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be provided with an inclined plane which is formed as a continuation of a curved surface provided on the joint surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction.
Further, in the third example, the other end side of the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 is provided with the first joint surface (curved surface) having the radius of curvature R and the second joint surface (inclined plane) formed as a continuation of the curved surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but in the present invention, an inclined plane such as the second joint surface may be omitted, and the other end side of the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-3 may be provided with a joint surface (curved surface) having the radius of curvature R alone.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction at the other end side. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4, the length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the outer peripheral portion is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4, a length L of the first joint surface on the outer peripheral portion satisfies a condition of 0≦L≦(thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1).
According to the fourth example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
According to the fourth example, the second joint surface of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore slag or the like generated during welding can be discharged to the exterior of the groove, enabling easy and high quality welding.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the fourth example, however, the angle of incline of the second joint surface of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily. Hence, according to the fourth example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced. Note that in the fourth example, the second joint surface of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal 10 can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the fourth example, the second joint surface on the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 is inclined from the axial direction, while the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is substantially parallel to the axial direction. However, in the present invention, the second joint surface on the outer peripheral portion of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-4 may be made substantially parallel to the axial direction, and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-5 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-5, the length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the indirect member 11-1 and the length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-1 are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Note that in the fifth example shown in
Similarly to the first example, in the fifth example the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-6 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-6, the length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the indirect member 11-2 and the length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-2 are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Note that in the sixth example shown in
Similarly to the first example, in the sixth example the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. In the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7, the length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-3 is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1.
According to the seventh example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the indirect member 11-3, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
Also according to the seventh example, a curved surface is provided on the groove bottom portion 12 of the indirect member 11-3, and therefore the weld metal 10 can be welded to the groove bottom portion 12 easily. Hence, according to the seventh example, high quality welding can be performed easily at the groove bottom portion 12.
Also according to the seventh example, the second joint surface is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7, and therefore slag or the like generated during welding can be discharged to the exterior of the groove, enabling easy and high quality welding.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the seventh example, however, the radius of curvature of the first joint surface (curved surface) on the indirect member 11-3 is set at 0≦radius of curvature R≦(five times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1), and the angle of incline of the second joint surface (inclined plane) is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily.
Hence, according to the seventh example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced. Note that in the seventh example, the second joint surface (inclined plane) is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal 10 can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the seventh example, the first joint surface of the indirect member 11-3 is a curved surface and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is a plane, but in the present invention, the first joint surface and second joint surface of the indirect member 11-3 may be formed as an integral plane and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be formed as a curved surface. In this case, the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be provided with an inclined plane formed as a continuation of the curved surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-7.
Further, in the seventh example, the other end side of the indirect member 11-3 is formed with the first joint surface (curved surface) having the radius of curvature R and the second joint surface (inclined plane) formed as a continuation of the curved surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but in the present invention, an inclined plane may be omitted, and the other end side of the indirect member 11-3 may be provided with a curved surface having the radius of curvature R alone.
As shown in
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-8 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-8, the length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-4 is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-8, the length L of the first joint surface on the indirect member 11-4 satisfies a condition of 0≦L≦(thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1).
According to the eighth example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the indirect member 11-4, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the eighth example, however, the angle of incline of the second joint surface on the indirect member 11-4 is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily. Hence, according to the eighth example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced.
Note that in the eighth example, the second joint surface of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-8 is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal 10 can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the eighth example, the joint surface of the indirect member 11-4 is inclined from the axial direction, while the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is substantially parallel to the axial direction. However, in the present invention, the joint surface of the indirect member 11-4 may be made substantially parallel to the axial direction, and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 maybe inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction.
As shown in
The indirect member 11-1 is fillet-welded 9 to one end of the first steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-9-1 and the other end of the second steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-9-2, and the indirect member 11-1 is fillet-welded 9 to the steel frame beam web 5-1.

Note that in the ninth example shown in
Similarly to the first example, in the ninth example the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.

The projecting portion at one end side of the indirect member 11-2 and a plane at the other end side thereof are respectively fillet-welded 9 to the steel frame beam web 5-1.
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-10-1, 7-10-2 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-10-1, 7-10-2, the length t1 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to one end of the indirect member 11-2 and the length t1 from the other end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-2 are each at least 0.7 times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Note that in the tenth example shown in
Similarly to the first example, in the tenth example the strength of the welded portion 9 is greater than the strength of the steel frame beam web 5-1, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
As shown in
The indirect member 11-3, which comprises a projecting portion at one end side and is formed with the first joint surface (curved surface) having the radius of curvature R (0≦R≦five times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1) and the second joint surface (inclined plane) formed as a continuation of the curved surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction at the other end side, is fillet-welded 9 to one end of the first steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1 and the other end of the second steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-2. The first joint surface and second joint surface on the other end side of the indirect member 11-3 are butt-welded 10 to the steel frame beam web 5-1.
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2, the length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web 5-1 to the other end of the indirect member 11-3 is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1.
According to the eleventh example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the indirect member 11-3, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
Also according to the eleventh example, a curved surface is provided on the joint surface of the indirect member 11-3, and therefore the weld metal 10 can be welded to the groove bottom portion 12 easily. Hence, according to the eleventh example, high quality welding can be performed easily at the groove bottom portion 12.
Also according to the eleventh example, the second joint surface is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2, and therefore slag or the like generated during welding can be discharged to the exterior of the groove, enabling easy and high quality welding.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the eleventh example, however, the radius of curvature of the first joint surface (curved surface) on the indirect member 11-3 is set at 0≦radius of curvature≦(five times the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1), and the angle of incline of the second joint surface (inclined plane) is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily. Hence, according to the eleventh example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced. Note that in the eleventh example, the second joint surface is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal 10 can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the eleventh example, the first joint surface on the indirect member 11-3 is a curved surface and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is a plane, but in the present invention, the first joint surface and second joint surface on the indirect member 11-3 may be formed as an integral plane and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be formed as a curved surface. In this case, the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be provided with an inclined plane inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-11-1, 7-11-2.
Further, in the eleventh example, the other end side of the indirect member 11-3 is formed with the first joint surface (curved surface) having the radius of curvature R and the second joint surface (inclined plane) formed as a continuation of the curved surface and inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but in the present invention, an inclined plane may be omitted, and the other end side of the indirect member 11-3 may be provided with a curved surface having the radius of curvature R alone.
As shown in
The indirect member 11-4, which comprises a projecting portion at one end side and is formed with a first joint surface that is substantially parallel to the radial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2 and a second joint surface which is inclined at an angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2, is fillet-welded 9 to one end of the first steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1 and the other end of the second steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-2. The first joint surface and second joint surface of the indirect member 11-4 are butt-welded 10 to the steel frame beam web 5-1.
Here, the axial length ta of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2 is between 0.5 and 200.0 times the thickness tb thereof in the radial direction. Furthermore, in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2, the length t2 from one end side of the steel frame beam web to the other end of the indirect member 11-4 is greater than the thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1. Also in the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2, the length L of the first joint surface on the indirect member 11-4 satisfies a condition of 0≦L<(thickness tw of the steel frame beam web 5-1).
According to the twelfth example, the entire joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is welded to the indirect member 11-4, and therefore the full strength of the steel frame beam can be recovered.
Typically, when the volume of the weld metal 10 increases, multi-layer buildup welding must be performed, and as a result, slag remains in the weld metal, causing welding defects and the like which lead to an increase in the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10. In the twelfth example, however, the angle of incline of the second joint surface on the indirect member 11-4 is set at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, and therefore the volume of the weld metal 10 does not increase unnecessarily. Hence, according to the twelfth example, the likelihood of flaws in the weld metal 10 can be reduced.
Note that in the twelfth example, the second joint surface of the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture 7-12-1, 7-12-2 is inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction, but when the angle θ is within a range of 30 to 70 degrees, the likelihood of flaws in the welded portion can be reduced even further, and moreover, the required amount of weld metal 10 can be reduced, enabling a reduction in cost.
In the twelfth example, the joint surface of the indirect member 11-4 is inclined from the axial direction, while the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 is substantially parallel to the axial direction. However, in the present invention, the joint surface of the indirect member 11-4 may be made substantially parallel to the axial direction, and the joint surface of the steel frame beam web 5-1 may be inclined at the angle θ (15≦θ≦80) from the axial direction.
Note that in the embodiment of the present invention described above, the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture is substantially fitted to a web opening provided in a steel frame beam web of a steel frame beam in an SRC structure, and by welding the fitted steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture to the steel frame beam web, the steel frame beam in the SRC is reinforced. Needless to say, however, the steel frame beam that is reinforced by the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture according to the present invention is not limited to a steel frame beam in an SRC structure. Hence, in the present invention, the steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture may be substantially fitted to a web opening in an steel frame beam web of a steel frame beam in an S structure, for example, and by welding the fitted steel frame beam-reinforcing metal fixture to the peripheral edge portion of the web opening provided in the steel frame beam web, the steel frame beam in the S structure may be reinforced.
