Hi,
In a situation like the sketch attached, how would we determine the thickness of the plate? It does not fall into a particular situation as listed in table 4-2 in S16.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
When connection the gusset of a concentric brace at the end of a braceline, do we need to connect the gusset for axial load from the horizontal conponent of the brace to the column or is the axial load canceled by the shear from teh deck?
Please refer to attached sketch for clarification...
Hi, my question is related to wall doubler plate used for wide flange beam to HSS Column moment connection. Hollow Structural Section Connection and Trusses design guide (FROM CISC) talked about the design of this kind of connection by checking a few failure modes. Failure mode (d) discussed on...
When designing brace to gusset plate connection for seismic, a large gusset plate is often resulted when the brace come towards the adjacent members at a steep angle while satisfying the 2t distance for ductility. This results in long free gusset plate edges. When stiffener is added to...

Hi All,
I have a question regarding eccentricity on the bolts in the axial loaded connection as shown in the attached PDF.
Do we assume that the pass through load acts along the centriod of the beam and create an eccentricity to the bolt group or can we ignore that and assume that the load...
