Sumario:Based on stochastic sensitivity analysis, a new style of joint structure with greater ductility and higher strength—the beam-column joint with gusset plate angle (JGA) steel—was proposed. Research on the static and hysteretic behavior of the JGA was performed using finite element analysis and experimental methods. The research results indicated that adding a seat angle could increase the positive and negative initial rotational stiffness and strength and provide a better energy consumption performance of the joint. An improved chaotic particle swarm optimization (ICPSO) neural network algorithm was used to study the stochastic sensitivity. Seven important parameters that influence the bending stiffness and strength of the JGA, namely, the beam height, beam flange width, beam web thickness, gusset plate thickness, connection angle steel thickness, connection angle steel width, and seat angle steel thickness, were investigated by stochastic sensitivity analysis. Moreover, the beam height, connection angle steel, and seat angle steel thickness, which had significant influences on the mechanical properties of the joints, were studied in depth by finite element analysis. Within the range of the parameters of the joint, the higher the beam height was, the larger the connection angle thickness was; the smaller the connection angle width was, the better the joint performance was. A reasonable design of the JGA is proposed: a beam with the SH2 section (250 × 125 × 6 × 9 mm) and a 10 mm thick and 75 mm long angle steel connection.
