    For lateral loads, Does being pinne

    Thank you molibden. I appreciate your answer but what is the effect of having pinned or fixed connection on frame lateral resistance since pin connection have resistance on lateral direction Fx (x global axis )??why is bracing or shear wall required only due changes from fixed to pin? isn't the...

    Thank you molibden. I appreciate your answers.

    For lateral loads, Does being pinne

    For lateral loads, Does being pinned connection (beam to column ) affects the lateral frame resistance? Because though pinned won't the beam by itself have lateral load transfer mechanism between the columns? ? all of the members are glulam timber members. see the picture here Now If the beam...

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    Thank you KootK, you have been a great help.

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    what else can I use to provide a lateral support for this type of building? meaning won't any lateral bracing disturb the architectural aspect of a residential building? plus I have got this comment from someone that making all of my supports simple or pin will make my frame truss & that means I...

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    okay kootk if it helps to make it more clear I am only dealing with shear & bending moment, I have sketched the shear force & bending moment diagrams of the frame... look it over. The analysis of this diagrams is based on the assumption of making the connection rigid that is only an assumption...

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    Can I make beam to column connection simply supported? I mean will it have enough resistance as a frame ? I am designing a G+1 residential building. I have attached the connection I am planning to use in my design & the question I am struggling with is; will it carry & transfer moment in other...

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    yeah because I have done the analysis part with a common Etabs software which assumes moment transfer between spans (continuity ).

    Beam column connection in glulam members

    Beam to column glulaminated member connection Now the dilemma I am facing is should I make the beam interrupt the column or should I make column interrupt the beam? I have attached pics to make it clear If I make the beams interrupt the columns then doesn't that mean the beam will carry the...
