Joint type A: the gusset plates and the truss-web members are connected by high-strength bolts. Joint type B: the truss-web members are partially embedded in the concrete chord, and there is no gusset plate. Please refer to the corresponding reference for the detailed definition of RGP, SJ, JSGP, PSGP, ZHJD, EHT, and T1. SJ-2: Strengthened the gusset plates. 1: Fracture of gusset plates. 2: Slippage of high-strength bolts. 3: Local buckling of compressive splice plates. 4: Fracture of tensile splice plates. 5: Local bucking of compressive web member. 6: Concrete cracking. 7: Yield of tensile web member. 8: Local buckling of gusset plates.
