single plate connection to cap plate with tongue 1

[wrxsti]

I am trying check capacity of a single plate welded to column

The single plate is conventional

but instead of the connecting member being web of a wide flange, tee or whatever

its now a tongue extended from a cap plate of a hss

can i still use the conventional design checks for weld and bolt of the single plate?

and what about tongue to cap plate weld?
cap plate to HSS?

thanks again BAretired
I'll look into it


The AISC example 13 and 14 K.6 only does

1. Check for slenderness (suitability for shear tab).
2. Limiting the shear tab thickness to preclude shear yielding of HSS wall.

AISC 15 for K.6 however

2 now becomes limiting state of punching shear

Celt83,

I learned it in 1964 from a book by Phil M. Ferguson entitled "Reinforced Concrete Fundamentals", but I'm sure there are many other sources which would provide the basics. I have never used it for concrete slabs, but I have used it many times over the years for steel plates where the unit moment is constant in any direction. I checked the internet and found that the book is available free in PDF form. I did not download it because they wanted to know my age, gender and other stuff that I thought was none of their business, but I may download it at some point just for the convenience of referencing it.
