Hello to all of you.
I have a doubt here and I would like to know what you all think about this.
In a project that we are here developing in Portugal we made a decision that has led to a great discussion in my office.
We are connecting a steel I beam to a slotted holes Fin Plate (easier...
Page 29 of the following has an example. Right now is the best I can give you...

I would calculate the supports only for the N + V forces. No moments. You may apply a rotational stiffness to your support of 10% the column above.

I really don't think that any adding of mass in a 2 story building will make great difference on the total base shear.
Besides, there will be more load on the second floor and less load on the first floor, assuming that the base shear is constants or the change is small.
“The most powerful...

The best option is to ask the client. If he/she has no idea them you should use recommended values, like L/200 for total deflection and L/250 for live loads.

1)For the sake of simplicity, I think you should model the base columns as pinned.
To really act as pinned it depends on the final design of that joint. How many anchor rod do you plan to use?
Could you be more specific?
