Reinforcement device for compression buckling strength and method of fastening the same

Abstract

A reinforcement device for compression buckling strength and a method of fastening the same are disclosed. The reinforcement device includes a member seating body surrounding an angle-type steel-frame member, first and second securing couplers securing opposite ends of the angle-type steel-frame member and opposite ends of the member seating body and adjustable to meet a standard of the angle-type steel-frame member, a horizontal engaging element connecting the first and second securing couplers with each other, a supporter positioned in a space where the angle-type steel-frame to member forms a right angle and supporting the angle-type steel-frame member, and a reinforcing bar connecting the supporter and the horizontal engaging element. The reinforcement device prevents an angle-type steel-frame member for a steel-frame structure or a steel power-transmission tower from undergoing compression buckling and accidental eccentricity, and improves compression buckling strength without power interruption of transmission lines, member disassembly, or field preparation.
