Design model
Fin plate connections may be considered as simple joints according to EN1993-1-1 5.1.2 (1) and (2) and EN1993-1-8 5.1.1 (1), (2) and (3). For further information about simple connections see SN020. Thus the effects of joint behaviour need not be taken into account in the analysis of the frame. However, for the design of the connection itself, the effective line of transfer of vertical shear, i.e. where zero moment is assumed to exist, depends on the flexibility of the supporting element. In practice, most supports are neither fully rigid nor entirely flexible. Therefore it is safe to design both the bolts and the welds for shear force and moment. Hence, two design models are used, one (to design the bolt group) where the line of transfer is at the face of the supporting element and one (to design the weld) where the line of transfer is at the centreline of the bolt group. The two models are shown in Figure 1.1.
