The joints of corner are main connecting part of gabled frames, of which the performance directly affects the integral behavior of its structure subject to load. Some conclusions are given in the article. At the same time, the construction of joints also determines its features of the semi-rigid stiffness. In this article, numerical simulation and experimental research are conducted to investigate semi-rigid connection of corner joints in gabled frames with different height-thickness ratios of beam-column web, width-thickness ratios of flange, and height-width ratios in corner joints. The results reveal that in the gabled frames, the corner node with the inclined stiffening rib can improve the bearing capacity of the specimens. When the extraterritorial flange is tension, the erection of the inclined stiffening rib can prevent structural failure and improve effectually the ductility of the structure.
