Author: Edi Supriyanto Email: edisupriyanto@gmail.com Website: https://neurostruct.id/ Consultation: https://wa.me/6281338718071/ Part I: English Version (Academic Paper) Abstract The beam-column joint (BCJ) is the most critical component of a reinforced concrete frame, acting as the primary transfer mechanism for lateral and vertical loads. In seismic-prone regions such as Bali, the integrity of this junction determines the survival of the structure during ground acceleration. This paper evaluates the structural mechanics of BCJ, emphasizing the "Strong Column-Weak Beam" (SCWB) design philosophy. We analyze the shear stress distribution within the joint core and the essential requirements for transverse reinforcement (confinement) according to SNI 2847:2019 and ACI 318 standards. Our findings suggest that proper detailing of hook lengths and joint core confinement significantly reduces the risk of brittle failure in tropical seismic environments. 1. Introduction The beam-column joint (BCJ) is the nexus of force transmission in monolithic frame structures. During seismic events, BCJs are subjected to high shear forces, which, if not properly reinforced, lead to diagonal cracking and catastrophic structural failure. Unlike members (beams and columns), which can be designed for flexure, the joint core must remain essentially elastic or behave in a highly ductile manner to prevent loss of axial load-carrying capacity. 2. Structural Mechanics of the Joint Core The horizontal shear force ($V_{jh}$) acting on the joint is determined by the moments at the beam faces. The shear force within the joint is calculated as: $$ V_{jh} = (T_{1} + C_{2}) - V_{col} $$ Where: $T_{1}$ = Tension force in beam top reinforcement $C_{2}$ = Compression force in beam bottom reinforcement $V_{col}$ = Shear force in the column above/below the joint The joint shear capacity ($V_n$) is defined by the concrete compressive strength ($f'c$) and the effective joint area ($A_j$): $$ V_{n} = \gamma \sqrt{f'c} A_{j} $$ $\gamma$ = Factor based on joint type (e.g., 1.7 for interior joints) 3. Confinement and Detailing Protocols To prevent shear failure, the joint core must be confined using closely spaced transverse reinforcement. Hook Detailing: Beam longitudinal reinforcement must be anchored with 90-degree or 180-degree hooks, extending well into the far side of the column core to ensure full development length ($L_d$). Transverse Reinforcement: The column stirrups must continue through the joint to provide tri-axial confinement. 4. Conclusion The BCJ is the deciding factor in the seismic resilience of a building. Adhering to the SCWB principle and providing sufficient joint confinement are the only ways to guarantee structural safety in high-seismicity regions. Part II: Indonesian Version (Bahasa Indonesia) Abstrak Sambungan balok-kolom (BCJ) adalah komponen paling kritis dari rangka beton bertulang, yang berfungsi sebagai mekanisme transfer utama untuk beban lateral dan vertikal. Di wilayah rawan gempa seperti Bali, integritas sambungan ini menentukan kelangsungan hidup struktur selama percepatan tanah. Makalah ini mengevaluasi mekanika struktural BCJ, dengan menekankan filosofi desain "Strong Column-Weak Beam" (SCWB). Kami menganalisis distribusi tegangan geser di dalam inti sambungan dan persyaratan esensial untuk penulangan transversal (pengekangan) sesuai standar SNI 2847:2019 dan ACI 318. Temuan kami menunjukkan bahwa pendetailan panjang kait dan pengekangan inti sambungan yang tepat secara signifikan mengurangi risiko kegagalan getas di lingkungan seismik tropis. 1. Pendahuluan Sambungan balok-kolom adalah inti dari transmisi gaya dalam struktur rangka monolitik. Selama peristiwa seismik, BCJ dikenai gaya geser tinggi yang, jika tidak diperkuat dengan benar, menyebabkan retak diagonal dan kegagalan struktural katastrofik. Berbeda dengan elemen lain (balok dan kolom) yang bisa didesain untuk lentur, inti sambungan harus tetap elastis atau berperilaku daktail untuk mencegah hilangnya kapasitas dukung beban aksial. 2. Mekanika Struktural Inti Sambungan Gaya geser horizontal ($V_{jh}$) yang bekerja pada sambungan ditentukan oleh momen pada muka balok. Gaya geser di dalam sambungan dihitung sebagai: $$ V_{jh} = (T_{1} + C_{2}) - V_{col} $$ Dimana: $T_{1}$ = Gaya tarik pada tulangan atas balok $C_{2}$ = Gaya tekan pada tulangan bawah balok $V_{col}$ = Gaya geser pada kolom di atas/bawah sambungan Kapasitas geser sambungan ($V_n$) didefinisikan oleh kuat tekan beton ($f'c$) dan luas sambungan efektif ($A_j$): $$ V_{n} = \gamma \sqrt{f'c} A_{j} $$ $\gamma$ = Faktor berdasarkan tipe sambungan (misal: 1.7 untuk sambungan interior) 3. Protokol Pengekangan dan Pendetailan Untuk mencegah kegagalan geser, inti sambungan harus dikekang menggunakan tulangan transversal dengan spasi rapat. Detail Kait: Tulangan longitudinal balok harus diangkur dengan kait 90 derajat atau 180 derajat, masuk jauh ke sisi jauh inti kolom untuk memastikan panjang penyaluran ($L_d$) penuh. Tulangan Transversal: Sengkang kolom harus tetap berlanjut melalui sambungan untuk memberikan pengekangan tri-aksial. 4. Kesimpulan BCJ adalah penentu ketahanan seismik sebuah bangunan. Mematuhi prinsip SCWB dan memberikan pengekangan sambungan yang memadai adalah satu-satunya cara untuk menjamin keamanan struktur di wilayah seismik tinggi.
