Thanks.I still have two questions about the end plate connection.
1. For the flush moment end plate, how can the axial load and moment transfer to beam flange? My Our customer thought there has a question about load path for this design. They thought the axial load can be transferred...

Thank you for your explain. In the flush moment end plate or extended end plate moment connection, the axial loads and moment will be resist by beam flanges, not beam web. My concern is if the beam web can resist part axial loads (distributed by section area) or not. If the beam web...
I have a question about beam extended end plate connection. I designed the beam connection with extended end plate (extended 1" at top and bottom flanges). For the geometry reason, there are no bolts beyond beam flanges (see attachment). I distributed the axial loads according the flange and web...
