    Check for flange to web weld of plated section

    ChrisToms, if I were you, I'd design a connection of this kind with a gusset plate similar to the left stiffener. As for now I don't understand what will carry the huge componens of tension in the brace and transfer them further to the post and the chord. I don't know what is the code that you...

    SCI P358 - UK "Green book" (on connections). Longitudinal and transverse welds

    Browsers, thank you. At least now I know, that there's something similar in American practice. Still, how can that be? Does that mean, that a fillet weld will break along one of its legs rather than along the shortest "throat line"? I never thought, that this is possible, at least when weld...

    End-plate connections use. UK/Eurocode practice

    Thank you, now I know at least the US practice. Still would be nice to hear the someone from Eurocode area. The Eurocode gives sufficient guidance on how to account for the influence of any shim plates in bolted connection, but it's unclear why they aren't shown in connection samples given in...

    End-plate connections use. UK/Eurocode practice

    Hello everyone. Trying to understand the application of the well-known "Green Book" and the UK practice of simple connections use. The question I have is as follows. In case of end-plate connections when the end-plate is connected to column web how is it possible to install the beam without...
