See attachment. Besides using some first principles or sketching out some free body diagrams, has anyone found a methodology for designing these types of splices when there is moment and shear at the joint? Maybe something by AISC or Steel Tube Institute...
Other than the AISC manual, specs, and commentary, does anyone have/know of good resources for designing steel plate girders? Application is for a long span in a building. Example projects are good, too. Thanks!
I have created a model of a steel cylinder subject to unconfined, uniaxial compression. The top and bottom surfaces of the cylinder are defined such that they act as if they are rigidly connected to two rigid plates. I am applying a downward (compressive) displacement to the nodes on the top...
