Joint design for steel portal frame

[pplbb2011]

I am designing a steel protal frame (shelter) with crane inside, can somebody suggest where I may find the reference for the joint design of eave, ridge, bracket, etc?

Joint is in bolt connection, AISC code required.

Thanks in advance.

Their is a good publication called the design of portal framed buildings by Woodcock. It is written to Australian standards. The biggest difficulty going from Australian to American codes is the unit conversion.

You need to get your hands on the AISC steel design guides - see below article.
