Abstract (EN): Mechanical models have the potential to characterize the behavior of complex steel joints, using for that the isolated behavior of its components, assembled according to their geometry. However, the mechanical models implemented in the current design codes are not prepared to deal with cyclically loaded joints, due to the complexity associated to load reversal. To overcome this difficulty this work makes to use of detailed finite elements models, to extract the needed force-displacement components response. The FE models are capable of representing the various connections components and the several sources of nonlinearity associated to them and are validated against existing experimental data. The discretized nature of the FE models is able to provide all the relevant information of any element, and even provide data that is typically unavailable from experimental tests, such as the contact or friction forces. Several models of bolted end plate beam-to column joints, with partial-strength classification in relation to the connected beam, have been developed using the ABAQUS FE package. A methodology to extract the needed force-displacement relationships of the column web components of the joint is presented and applied to the joints, through integration of stress and displacement fields. The results, presented in this paper, allow setting the base for a component-based model to simulate the dissipative behavior of steel connections subjected to cyclic loading conditions.
