DESIGN OF BEAM-COLUMN CONENCTION

CHOOSE THE TYPE OF COLUMN-BEAM CONNECTION

Four Bolt Stiffened Connection [4ES]

BEAM LIMITATION FOR BOLTED UNSTIFFENED/STIFFENED EXTENDED END PLATE MOMENT CONNECTION
Beams shall satisfy the following limitations:
(1) Beams shall be rolled or welded built-up wide-flange shapes. At moment-connected ends of welded built-up sections, within at least the depth of beam width or 3 times of
flange, whichever is less, the beam depth of beam or 3 times the width of flange, whichever is less, the beam web and flange shall be connected using either a CJP groove
weld or a pair of fillet welds each having a size 3/4 times the beam web thickness but not less than 10 mm. For the remainder of the beam, the weld size shall not be
less than that required to accomplish shear transfer from the web to the flanges.
(2) Beam depth, d, is limited to values shown in Pre-qualification Table.
(3) Beam flange thickness is limited to the values shown in Pre-qualification Table.
(4) The clear span/depth ratio of the beam shall be limited as follows:
(a) For Special Moment Frame systems, 7 or greater.
(b) For Immediate Moment Frame systems, 5 or greater.
(5) Width/thickness ratios for the flanges and web of the beam shall conform to the limits of the AISC Seismic Provisions. [In our case IS800 2007 LSD]
(6) Lateral bracing of beams shall be provided as follows:
(a) For SMF systems, in conformance with Section 9.8 of the AISC Seismic Provisions.
(b) For IMF systems, in conformance with Section 10.8 of the AISC Seismic Provisions.
(7) The protected zone shall be determined as follows:
(a) For unstiffened extended end-plate connections: the portion of beam betwn the column face and a distance equal to the beam depth or 3 times the flange
i.e= d or 3b bf
width of beam from the face of the column,
0.35 m or
0.420 m
(b) For stiffened extended end-plate connections: the portion of beam betwn the column face and a distance equal to the location of the end stiffener + the
i.e =L st +d/2
depth of the beam or 3 times the beam flange width, whichever is less.
0.383 m
whichever
is less
=3b bf
0.420 m
COLUMN LIMITATION FOR BOLTED UNSTIFFENED/STIFFENED EXTENDED END PLATE MOMENT CONNECTION
Columns shall satisfy the following limitations:
(1) Columns shall be any of the rolled shapes or built-up sections permitted in Section 2.3
(2) The beam shall be connected to the flange of the column.

CALCULATION OF END PLATE STIFFENER
The two extended stiffened end-plate connections, Figures 6.4, require a gusset plate welded between the connected beam flange and the end-plate. The minimum
L st = h st /Tan30
L st =
Stiffener length shall be:
0.208 m Assume
200 mm
where h st is the ht. of the end-plate from the outside face of the beam flange to end of the endplate

h st =
0.120 m Assume
120 mm
The stiffener plates shall be terminated at the beam flange and at the end of the end-plate with landings approx. 25 mm long. The stiffener shall be clipped where
it meets the beam flange and end-plate to provide clearance between the stiffener and the beam flange weld.
When the beam and end-plate stiffeners have the same material strengths, the thickness of the stiffeners shall be greater than or equal to the beam web thickness.
If the beam and end-plate stiffener have different material strengths, the thickness of the stiffener shall be greater than the ratio of the beam-to-stiffener plate material
yield stress times the beam web thickness
