| Abstract: | To promote the process of architectural standardization and improve construction efficiency, a novel non-diaphragm joint between concrete-filled cold-formed high-strength square steel tubular (CCHSST) columns and composite beams was proposed. Low-cycle loading tests were conducted on four non-diaphragm joint specimens, and the effects of the column wall thickness in the joint zone t j and the height of the column wall thickened area in the joint zone h j on the failure modes, load-bearing capacities, strength and stiffness degradation, ductility, and energy dissipation capacities were investigated. The test results show that as t j increased from 10 mm to 20 mm, the plastic hinge of the non-diaphragm joint gradually moved from the joint zone to the beam, effectively preventing damage to the joint zone. The positive and negative bearing capacities of the specimen increased by 95.12 % and 38.51 %, respectively, and the positive initial stiffness increased by 48.17 %. Meanwhile, the energy dissipation capacity of the specimen significantly improved, while the ductility slightly decreased. As h j increased from 600 mm to 900 mm, the difference in load-bearing capacity and initial stiffness of non-diaphragm joints was between 2.4 % and 19.12 %, and the changes in energy dissipation capacity and ductility are also minimal. All the non-diaphragm joints tested in this study are semi-rigid and partial strength joints according to Eurocode 3. A simplified method for calculating the skeleton curves of non-diaphragm joints was proposed. The numerical simulation analysis conducted by MSC.MARC indicates that finite element method (FEM) can effectively simulate the hysteresis performance of non-diaphragm joints. It is recommended to adopt the form of the non-diaphragm joint with thickening only in the joint zone. For the thickness of the non-thickened column wall t is 10 mm, t j should be 2 t and h j should be 1.5 h s (where h s is the beam height). • The non-diaphragm joint between concrete-filled cold-formed high-strength square columns and composite beams was proposed. • A series of low-cyclic loading tests had been conducted on the seismic performance of non-diaphragm joints. • The test results showed that the non-diaphragm joints with thickened column walls achieved the expected damage pattern and performance objectives. • The finite element model established in MSC.MARC can accurately simulate the mechanical performance of the non-diaphragm joints. • The feasibility of the non-diaphragm joints with thickened column walls was demonstrated.
