Temperature distribution usually observed in steel beam-to-column end-plate joint after 15 minutes of its standard fire exposure is presented and discussed in detail. Two types of joints are analysed for comparative purposes. The first one is a pure steel connection while the other is covered by a reinforced concrete slab. Numerical simulation of the considered joint heating scenario was performed using the 3D model in the ANSYS environment. Some results were additionally verified by simpler calculations carried out on 2D models using the SAFIR computer program. It is emphasized that due to the local accumulation of many massive steel plates the representative temperature values identified in particular joint components are significantly lower than those which at the same time are measured in beam and column outside the connection. This means that the classic assumption of even temperature over the entire length of all the structural elements of a frame load-bearing structure exposed to fire at any time during such fire, without distinguishing in the formal model any cooler nodal elements, is always safe but very conservative. In addition, as the fire develops the differentiation between the temperature values relating to the beam web and to the beam flanges becomes more visible. This effect is particularly significant in the presence of a massive floor slab adjacent the upper flange of a frame I-beam which effectively cools it.

Based on the numerical simulation performed within the Abaqus computational environment for a typical end-plate beam-to-column joint the influence of the endplate thickness on the effective joint rigidity has been verified. The initial joint rigidity at first determined for 20 mm thick end-plate has been compared with rigidity of the joint constructed with substantially more flexible end-plates 10, 8 and 6 mm thick. In all the considered cases the column was equipped with horizontal ribs stiffening the web at the height of beam top and bottom flange. No diagonal ribs were applied. In addition the column flange at the zone directly adjacent to the beam end-plate in all the analyzed cases has been set to 30 mm. This way it did not affect the computationally determined rigidity of considered joints. Juxtaposition of M-ϕ curves characterizing the considered joints and depicting the relationship between the applied bending moment and relative change of the initial angle between undeformed axes of beam and column in the analyzed frame indicates qualitatively different modes of destruction of the considered joints, and thus different computational models determining their bearing capacity. In the first case obtained parameters seem to indicate that the joint is nominally rigid but in all the remaining cases the bearing capacity seems to be exhausted by the increasing deformation of the more and more flexible end-plate.
