I will have to dig deeper for that. Moments from the moment frame are not that much less than the gravity moments any way. the plate...

Do you mean continuing the beam over the column? Gravity moments are larger than wind moments so it accrued to me if I should be...

I will just do the connection suggested by HTURKAK. Its more like making a beam moment splice through the column web. Providing a moment...

Can you increase the column size rather than go for a composite section? It's generally more cost effective. I occasionally use...

Yes I could but its going to become pretty heavy to stay with reasonable drift. The building location is in a very windy coastal area.

I don't love it. Introducing a new technology to the project for only a small number of elements usually winds up being cost...

I'm thinking you need to rotate the columns at that cantilever end because it's a two-story building and your column extends up above...

No need to rotate the subject column axis. Regarding the cantilever , you have back span beam . EDIT: You are using metric units and...

Thank you Kootk for replying, I will look into the other two methods.

Thank you HTURKAK and JAE for replying. In steel I am used to doing the basics so this is new to me. Having moment connection on both...

I have a two story building as the provided sketch. The ground floor will be completely open car park (no wind pressure) with only a...
