Introduction

Steel ConnectionsMany configurations are used for force transfer in connections. The configuration depends upon the type of connecting elements, nature and magnitude of the forces (and moments), available equipment, fabrication and erection considerations, cost, etc.

Steel Framing Connections

Framed ConnectionsBolts only in web, not the flangesTransmits only shearNot bending momentAccomplished with

� clip angles & bolts/welds

Moment ConnectionsTransmit shear & momentFlanges must be connectedBolt/Weld FlangesMay require column stiffeners

Steel Connections -Dr. Seshu Adluri

Framed connections

Only shear transferEquivalent to pinned end for the beamNo moment at the beam endRotation is freely (?) allowed

Steel Connections -Dr. Seshu Adluri

Framed connections

End reaction only Web of the beam is connectedNo connection for the flanges

Steel Connections -Dr. Seshu Adluri

Beam to Column Rigid JointsThe bending moment of the beam is primarily taken by the flanges in the form of tension and compression forces

Beam to Column Rigid JointsStiffener plates are used to ‘shore up’the column flanges against the forces transmitted by the beam flanges. The stiffeners may be full length or may extend only part of the column web depth.
