Hi all, I have a question regarding a beam to column (hinged) connection (see the attached file). The beam transmits a reaction F to the flange of the column with an eccentricity e from the centerline of the column. Should I check the column with a bending moment M = F*e? Thank you in...

Thank you all for your answers. @Kootk I agree with you. The plates are much stiffer than the web of the HEA and therefore the P_red will appear at the workpoint you show in your sketch. This will give a moment in the weak axis of IPE. And the other component a bending moment in the strong...

Hello everyone, I am trying to check a connection between a HEA400 and a IPE450 and I have the following question, see also the attached sketch. The diagonal of the horizontal wind bracing is connected eccentrically to the HEA400. The force in the diagonal gives two components. One parallel...

Dear Hturkak, Thank you for your response. The detail was not designed by me. I just have to check if the connection and the beam provide sufficient resistance. But I think that in the detail you are showing we also have a (small) eccentricity and also a bending moment in the connection and the...

Hello everyone, I have a beam to beam simple connection (beams 1-2). As you can see in the attached image, there is an eccentricity, because of the distance between the bolts and beam 1. Should the connection and beam 2 be designed to take the bending moment which arises from this eccentricity...

BAretired thank you for your response. I would like to mention that my flange is not a slab. Actually, the height of my flange is 1,5 m and the total height of the cross section is 2,6 m. So I expect some tension at the bottom of the flange.

Hello everybody, I have a concrete T beam and I want to calculate the reinforcement. The flanged part of the beam is under compression and the height of the compression zone is less than the height of the flange. Apart from the bottom of the beam, where the reinforcement will be applied, do I...

Thank you for your response. Attached you see a sketch of the connection. Beam 2 is supported by beam 1 through these plates welded on beam 1. I thought that because of the negative moment which acts in the transverse direction on beam 1, the resulting compressive force on the bottom flange...

Hello everybody, Let’s say I have beam 1, which is connected with beam 2, which runs in the transverse direction. Beam 2 is actually hanging from beam 1 and they are connected through a bolted connection on the top flange of beam 2 and the bottom flange of beam 1. The bolts are subjected to...
