End-plate connection moment-rotation relationship

Generalised component-based model for beam-to-column connections including axial versus moment interaction

“…The comparison with available experimental results showed satisfactory agreement, but only the critical load levels were considered. Since then, several researchers have been using the FEM to investigate the joint behaviour, such as: Lipson & Hague (1978) -single-angle bolted-welded connection; Krishnamurthy et al (1979) -extended endplate connections; Richard et al (1983) -double-angle connection; Patel & Chen (1984) -welded two-side connections; Patel & Chen (1985) bolted moment connection; Kukreti et al (1987) -flush endplate connections; Beaulieu & Picard (1988) -bolted moment connection; Atamiaz Sibai & Frey (1988) -welded one-side unstiffened joint configuration. More recently, focusing on 3D finite element models the following works can be mentioned: Sherbourne & Bahaari (1994); Bursi & Jaspart (1997Yang et al (2000); Citipitioglu et al (2002); Coelho et al (2002);and Maggi et al (2002).…”

Finite element method for evaluating rising and slip of column–base plate for usual connections

“…The results obtained by the above models have provided adequate assessment of rising and slip between the base plate and the reinforced concrete foundation [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

Response and component characterisation of semi-rigid connections to tubular columns under axial loads

“…This situation is aggravated by the relative lack of research and 2 design guidance for bolted angle connections with tubes. In contrast, the behaviour of open beam-to-open column joints with rigid or semi-rigid details has been extensively studied [1][2][3] and current European standards [4] incorporate rules for determining their stiffness and resistance.…”
